From public libraries? Not many christians are borrowing the bible from the public library, I don't think they'd care. It's also telling that you assume I'm christian myself. This is why the Democrats lose elections, you know. You think that the only ones voting against you are biblethumpers. You count those up, and there's no way team red can win.

You mean the people who don't want pornography being distributed to their children in the public schools that they are forced to fund? Those people?

The drug dealer defense? "I didn't put a gun to his head and force him to inject fentanyl-laced street heroin!"

>I feel like among the books gender queer is an exception in terms of explicitness

But I didn't complain about those other books, did I? When you look up the lists of "top banned books", do those other books show up at the top of the list? Are they on the list at all? You failed to police your own, and now the rest of us are being forced to police them. That book wasn't banned though never being purchased by school libraries. It had to first show up on the shelf. And you didn't do anything to stop it. Now responsible people have to step in and do it for you.
