This is a tough call. Let's all take a deep breath. My thoughts:

In this country, people should be able to publish such crap as this.

Other than that which is ruled obscene, let different ideas flow freely. Someday it might be books about target shooting that are unpopular with the masses, or faith-based conversions. Oh, wait...

That said, I won't buy this book, and would take it into my own hands if I caught a man doing a boy. Game over.

I belive in the right of anyone to publish/speak/try-to-pursuede his/her opinion (pictures excluded). I also believe that thinking people decide what views survive.

But that isn't the issue. Nobody would deny the author the right to try to peddle his filth. The issue is whether a moral person or company would peddle his filth. There is NO consititutional right to have something you've written published. This has nothing to do with free speech rights. Namblazon is a virtual child molestor.

But maybe the people who buy, sell or POSSESS the books should be finger printed, have background checks run on them and have to pay a fee for a permit to carry the book around?

Pedophile Material OK--Gun Ownership, NOT ok--sickening huh?
