Are these books not banned to protect the children? Should other states be allowed to circumvent and subvert protections your state offers children?
How about other countries?
What's the alternative? Do you really envisage a blockade on books crossing state lines? What's next, Smokey and the Librarian?
To put it less confrontationally - the books are banned from schools and public libraries. They're not banned from private purchase or private ownership. You can give these books, you can gift them, you can sell them, you can loan them. Just not anywhere that's publicly funded.
So there's really no difference between them being available from Brooklyn Library and being available from Amazon. As long as Texas isn't funding the BPL, there's no issue here.
No, they’re banned because the people who decided the ban disagree with content that questions their political ideology. For example, this includes a lot of books on racism.
Are you aware of what's available on the thing you're posting this comment through? You can't even make a book with content close to as graphic as what's available here. The kids are fine, it's the fascist adults we need to be concerned about.
