Banned Books

no i think banning a book is pointless and a stupid practice that just ends up spurring people to read something that if not banned people would not know existed... Mark 'Chopper' Reid said he was ecstatic after they said they were oing to ban his childrens story Hooky the Cripple because it was going to make him rich... on that book though im sure that people did think it was inapropriate as it basically involved Hooky getting back at the Butcher, Manuello, who teased him and beat him, using the knife he got for his birthday to stab Manuello repeatedly in the face.. not to mention it was a picture book
