A Book Club is where "the people" get together to discuss books, have reading groups, etc. We would, of course, have state-appointed moderators.
Yeah, I think this analogy is more in line with the second amendment, don't you?
Analogy accepted.
Consequences accepted?
Could individuals be prohibited from keeping or reading books not approved by the Book Club?
Could the books used by that club be required to be kept in a gov't-owned library?
Could private ownership of books be outlawed, leaving available only those books handed out during the established meeting times, and must be returned at the end thereof?
Could private book clubs - without state-appointed moderators - be banned?
Who writes the books? could authors be prohibited from writing if they lack gov't-provided licensing - and that only to write certain kinds of books?
Could fiction be banned? (doesn't provide concrete social benefits, right?)
Could anyone found with an unauthorized private library be subject to $250,000 fine & 10 years prison - for _each_ book?
Could concealed carry of a book outside a library require paid licensing?
Could unlicensed possession of a printer, copier, or pen be punishable?
Go ahead. Answer the questions.
