I’d rather be proud of doing this than proud of doing nothing.

It will give me more satisfaction than you will have when we are sitting in the gulag together.

This is a New York Times story?

What's next? Has somebody been doodling in the margins or talking too loud or eating in the library?

Leftists hate it when their own tactics are used against them.

I was no where near Idaho.

And Epstein didn’t kill himself.

This is funny and a great stunt!

But I think it would be even better if they were relocated strategically, such as prominently displayed in the childrens fiction section, in the section on weather (snowflakes), abnormal psychology, etc.

I do that all the time. But not in libraries. In stores — Costco mostly. Last October I moved a bunch of hillary’s book under the cackling life-size witch display.

LOL!

Seems like ‘non-violent protest’, to me; and certainly superior to ‘antifa’ sorts of antics.

During his regime I encountered a lavish display of Øbongo books at a local bookstore. I couldn’t help myself - I located copies of Mein Kampf and a book on Joseph Stalin and “redecorated”.

I wonder how long it took them to notice? ;’}

Here's a stunt liberals pulled. Switching book covers and then posting their work:

Well, at least the books aren’t being stolen or destroyed, like the leftists do to our yard signs.

Well, I’m just thinking it’s not too likely that someone will come in looking to buy Marx’s Das Kapital and instead purchase a MAGA cap because he didn’t see Marx on the shelf.

I can understand it may make a person fell he’s really making a difference and sticking it to someone, but in reality it’s just a silly waste of time.

No, librarian wanting to get her liberal brethren worked up. Just watch, soon the left will be pouring money and books into this library. Do a handwriting analysis on the note.

I guess we shouldn’t have dressed up like Injuns and dumped that tea into Boston Harbor, either...

I’ve been moving Hillary’s blurbs to True Crime section for years.

Someone has to ignore books in wrong place when putting away books and helping find new ones.

Yes, because moving a book is a daring feat - but it’s more like hitting the beach at Normandy than the Tea Party. Or, better, landing on the moon.

The last time I even went into a public library, I went in to donate a couple of brand new copies of the just released Buzz Patterson book “Dereliction of Duty”, the story of his time in the Clinton White House....

Oh how the head librarian’s eyes lit up when she saw Bill Clinton’s smiling visage on the cover. She embraced them, and took them to the back counter to examine and catalogue ...

Then when she read the jacket and realized that they were critical of her sweet angel Bill, she jumped back, called me over, and while shoving the books in my direction with a yardstick (literally), she said: “We don’t want books like this in our libraries.”

And this was in a very conservative town.

I had donated hundreds of dollars of books there previously (mostly fiction)... But their huge loss is the collection of rare and valuable regional books of historical interest that I WAS going to donate to that library’s special collections.
