I would agree that the public schools should be monitored regarding books that are required reading, but the libraries should offer the opportunity for students to research any topic they would like. To do otherwise, restricts learning which in turn can lead to the creation of more ignorant bigoted blowhards such as Senator Kennedy.
You need to learn how to be in a state of disagreement for gracefully. You're going to blow a head gasket like Mark Robinson will if he doesn't cool down a bit.
I'm sure books on cooking drugs and making bombs would be a hit with grade 6-12 boys.
Adults or minors sharing adult content with minors to the best of my knowledge is considered sexual abuse by most states.
Sen John Kennedy has a top tier domestic and international education. You've provided no evidence he is a bigot. He certainly has more education than Bill Clinton.
I doubt there is a correlation between education and bigotry. Just because someone has a top tier education does not mean they learned a damned thing about tolerance, compassion, selflessness, or acceptance of diversity. With several individuals within the university community, those with way more education, I've witnessed a callous approach to all ideas/people that were different than theirs. These folks revered the entirety of world with a binary approach, light or dark, male or female, black or white, straight or gay, right or wrong, etc. with no middle ground. Personally, I've never viewed the world that way.
