Freedom of Thought

[Charles Fout]

1. No book should be banned.

2. Librarians should never be subjected to the whims of mob rule.

But Missouri legislators passed a law in 2022 punishing librarians with fines and possible imprisonment for permitting sexually explicit materials on bookshelves.

It's about protecting kids and parental rights. That's why those laws were passed.

Parents have the obligation to parent regardless of what books are on the shelves.

That that I think of my self as a conservative is irrelevant but; I see this attack on free thought as a misguided "dog whistle" strategy with the purpose of creating more cultural animosity to further divide us.

No book should ever be banned. Opposing arguments or discussions of why a thought is wrong should be welcome. 

The whims of mob rule are never creative.
