St. George resident Laren Clark said she tried six months ago to donate the book the county library but was told the title was too inflammatory.

The "tolerance" of the left strikes again.

[aomagrat]

FYI, and can you bump this with your bump list?

[Marobe]

Good luck to the ST.George Patriots that want truth available to their children.

[TomServo]

Bump!!!

[Khepera]

?

BUMP! Great post for a GREAT book. It should be in all public libraries.

[Copperhead61]

She should call HK Edgerton, he'll make them put it on the shelves!!!! BTW: I have a copy of the book and it's not what the liberals think, it tells the South's side of the story with no apologies (very refreshing)and exposes some common misconceptions about Dixie. I recommend it highly to Civil War buffs, history enthusiasts or anyone who wants to learn about both sides of the conflict without PC interferance.

I wonder if this will make the ALA's banned book list.

bump

[stainlessbanner]

too inflammatory....

I'm sure they don't have any black power books, conspiracy theory books, atheist books, porn books (disguised as art). That's inflamatory.

Tell the @sshole running the show that he is livin' off taxpayer funds and they want that book on the shelf! Nobody put him in charge of censorship.

If the Lieberry has the National Enquirer then this erudite tome should be included. But it has to be put in the Fiction-Fantasy section.

[Colt .45]

Amen brother!

[Hans Moleman]

If they put it in the fiction section there wouldn't be a problem.

Here are some additional books...

[Constitution Day]

It's already in my local library & was put there with no fanfare or media coverage whatsoever.

[billbears]

Would that be right next to "lincoln's interpretations on the Constitution"? You could start a whole section just from lincoln. More delusional writing by lincoln could include

"How I saved the Union"
"Habeas what?"
"Things I learned about Republics while reading by candle light in my log cabin"
"A horse, a horse, EMPIRE for a horse"(the dead horse at Sumter)
"It REALLY was over slavery,REALLY!!"
"How the slaves(and all free blacks that I got to go) enjoyed Liberia"
"My foray into Military Tribunals"
"How to take $2,000,000 from the Treasury without getting caught" cowritten with Chief Justice Chase

[HELLRAISER II]

There is no reason for it to not be on the shelves, but in actuality they have come up with one, it's called Bigotry. Ya'll be fair to the minorities, ya'll don't have no rights no more. What a crock, this library Administrators need a good swift kick in their Racist @ss!

[HELLRAISER II]

I guess you've never heard of the Right to Freedom of speech.

[WhiskeyPapa]

Bump for Union, progress and freedom.
