Illinois is about to become the first state to ban . . . book bans at public libraries and public school libraries.

@Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker Thanks for posting that.

When I hear "book ban" I think maybe pornography or something. But no, it's books that contain facts and truths, and books that make you think.

Remember when they banned Judy Bloom, because young girls get periods and develop boobs, but apparently they are not allowed to read about it?

They're banning Bradbury's "Farenheit 451"!

What are the odds that they haven't read it?

@BillySmith @Urban_Hermit @Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker They probably haven't. There's something "meta" about banning a book that's about burning books. o.O

alwirtes,

@RobertDaleParker @ianRobinson Thank you for this. I just emailed this link to my state representative in Colorado and asked him to sponsor similar legislation.
