Can you name one time in History where it was a good thing to ban or burn books?

[Blackwater Lunchbreak]

No. Information should never be destroyed. It is wise to limit information to age appropriate or for security reasons. Why have a book on homemade poisons in an Elementary School library?

It would never be appropriate to burn books just because someone doesn't like the information.

Maybe when we didn't teach Mein Kampf in American schools?

I know, I know, commie censorship, amirite?

I know pornography when I see it.

Well, according to Phantasmal the word 'Nigger' should be banned and I'm assuming all books and movies that use words of that nature.
I believe she feels our Negro friends are like little children, and will possibly wet themselves if such a word is ever uttered.

Then again, she's told me the US Constitution guarantees that Muslim children have the Right to bring their Prayer Rugs to Public School.
This is why I come to JPP. To gather Knowledge that I was heretofore unaware of.

Oh, and don't get me started on her Theory of Age of Consent being 25!

If she lives near Austin, she probably doesn't wait until after dinner.

I literally donated copies of every one of those books about a year ago. Now some are selling for ridiculous prices. I'm sad.

The bottomline in America; the Almighty Buck! I'm with you. I'd be crying too if I'd just donated books which quickly turned into a mint.

The silver-lining is to consider the full value of the donation on your receipt for tax purposes.

The banned titles? Snap them up. Instant collectibles. Obviously the better the condition the more valuable.

Such fads quickly soar in price but never fall much below the high on the backside of the wave. It just means you'd have to sit on them longer if you bought high.

Check it in six months. Anyone who has them could be sitting on several thousand dollars worth.

[AProudLefty]

Can one still get them on the kindle?

Just checked on my Kindle app. Apparently you can. It's $8.72 and it's unlimited.
