Conservative-dominated court restores books denounced by officials as ‘pornographic filth’ to school libraries
An appellate court has ruled that Texas cannot ban books from libraries simply because they mention “butt and fart” and other content which some state officials may dislike.
The fifth US circuit court of appeals issued its decision on Thursday in a 76-page majority opinion, which was written by Judge Jacques Wiener Jr and opened with a quote from American poet Walt Whitman: “The dirtiest book in all the world is the expurgated book.”
In its decision, the appellate court declared that “government actors may not remove books from a public library with the intent to deprive patrons of access to ideas with which they disagree”.
The Bible describes God showing Moses his ‘backside’, which a number of actual scholars interpret as including his butt.
Not sure about farts in the Bible, but there’s stories about rape, incest, at one point a description of men with ‘emission like donkeys’, ie, huge cum loads from big dicks.
They seem to never learn that if you try to ban ‘pornographic’ text, you’ll have to ban the Bible as well.
Nuh uh. I swored on the bi-bull three times. That ain’t in there. I never heard my preacher say that and all he ever talked about was the bi-bull.
That’s one angle though isn’t it, so then they can claim religious persecution?
