Whether you are for or against the books being banned, you don't have much say. The decisions are made for you by your more intelligent "comrades" in the centrally planned ...one-size-fits-all ...public school system.
I guess you didn't get the message the first time. Sooo, I'll state it this way...DO NOT PM ME! Is that clear or do you need it in some other kind of language?

All well and good. What does that have to do with me? Sure, but I don't go all Dixie Chicks and start whining about it. Nor, when a politician does something I disagree with, do I suggest that I am embarrassed to live in the United States. Sure, which is why I never assume. (Go ahead and search, you won't find me using that word except, possibly, when quoting someone else.)
Clif, I can't answer your question about Kama Sutra or Jenna Jameson because I am not familiar with either . I wouldn't want to asnwer a question on a specific topic I know nothing about. You might want to try that sometime. I do however know about the book in question, hence my commentary. Next?
And who is being the immature one? Do you have something against posting your below average intelligence level for all the public to see? Well, let me help.... uff Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Posts: 19 You know you have to That isn't really a picture of you is it? You look more like 45 (It's the crow's feet) :twisted::twisted::twisted: Does your husband have to turn the lights out? Can't blame they guy can you. :roll::roll::evil::mrgreen::twisted:
So, you have no problem looking up "Pseudointellectual" in Wikipoedia, but somehow get confused with "Kama Sutra" and "Jenna Jameson"? Cool, I was getting tired of this subject anyway. I doubt it.
You may choose to read up on literature through wikipedia...I prefer to actually Read the book. Like the one in the original post. I question a lot of your posts too , but you probably don't care either.
There is some sexual content and that is probably one of many reasons it is banned. I sort of made a broad generalization and I shouldn't have. But talk of books being taken out of school libraries alarms me even if there is profanity and sexual content for that reason-so many of the classics have some undesirable qualities but that is only a small part of the book. Although I doubt the original book in question is worth all this fuss.
Pinky whatever you call yourself, PM me all ya want. You came on a public forum and gave your opinion and it's very apparent when others give their opinion you just can't seem to handle the heat. Here's something for ya, GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN not only to get away from the heat but from the looks of your avatar, your health. Well, my response was immature but I feel sooo....much better. Pulling out the popcorn. Cruise on folks.

Don't want to show your maturity level or is it you really don't have anything of value to say?
Actually, I think the "You are such an idiot" was your response. Just want to make sure your post was accurate. Thanks! :evil:
Agreed! I don't agree with the banning of any books from schools, but I do believe they should all be age appropriate whether it be for an elementary, middle or high school.
Now we see how these "other threads" be it joke, silly or current event get started...... and just clutter up the board......
