So if a book is banned by a widespread movement of extremists taking control of local governing bodies and the federal government is not involved, that's okay then?

I am absolutely dumbfounded that this seems to be ok to some people.

>there are no banned books in America.

that was the only point I was making. Mein Kraft, Selected Works of Lmao The Dong, and The Anarchist Cookbook may be removed from sale/access in some specific locations, but it is very much legal to buy, own, and sell them.
