Its a wonder that the lefties haven't attempted to ban the Harry
Potter books, chock full as they are with mysticism and
supernaturalism. Not to mention the rampant Christian symbolism, the
definitive expectation of the difference between Good and Evil, and
that you ought to not merely find Evil distasteful, but something
worth combating, actively combating, not just passing resolutions
against.

You're a little slow on the draw there, pyotr. Christian conservatives
have sued or petitioned school boards all over the country to ban them
from schools.

Lest you forget Ed there have been plenty of politically correct left
wingers pushing to ban books like "Of Mice and Men", "Adventures of Tom
Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn", and "Uncle Tom's Cabin" for offensive
words, ideas, and pedaling a "softer view of slavery" among other
reasons.

I also find it hypocritical that Cliff is against burning books. Him
being a big proponent of freedom and all. It's merely another legal form
of freedom of speech AFAICT. Just so long as the book you're burning
legally belongs to you.

Neither the far left or the far right has much tolerance for freedom of
speech.
