Parents who want the books banned from libraries or schools are violating the rights of other parents who have no problem with their children reading Harry Potter.

LOL What a crock. If you want your kid to read the books, buy them yourself or borrow them from a friend. But any taxpayer has the right to speak out about not wanting their tax money spent on certain things.

How would you like it if some stranger came up to you and told you what books your child could or couldn't read?

No one told you that you couldn't get the books for your kid. Get a clue.

Good reasoning. So, I assume you will have no complaints the next time someone wants to ban the Bible from a school library?

*ahem* Actually that very thing happened to me when I was a kid. I wanted to read a book on space exploration that was above my grade level and the teacher forbid me to check it out from the library.

After I told my mom about that we went out and bought my own copy that very night.

When I brought it to school the teacher was FURIOUS and confiscated my personal copy.

BAD mistake...
