I know Florida, Texas, and other counties have tried and succeeded to ban books, I wonder how that is even legal since we have the first amendment. I tried doing research on this since Huntington Beach is banning books and people were petitioning against that at the main library.

I made a little post asking people to petition on the Orange County sub.

    There’s a difference between a book being

    • banned from curriculum
    • banned from a school library
    • requiring parental / guardian permission to be checked out (usually for x rated content)
    • being outright “banned”
