The Issue

The latest "Harry Potter" book to hit schools across Komarr has stirred up the greatest controversy yet.

The Debate

  • "I quite enjoyed the book, until I got to the part where Harry summons evil demons to do his bidding," says religious leader Stephanie Suzuki. "Now that's just wrong. We need to restore some sense to this debate, by which I mean we should remove this book from the shelves, salt it thoroughly, and burn it."

  • Teachers union President Lars Giono says, "Come on, the book is fantasy! And it's a damn good read. I'd like the government to issue a statement of support for our teachers and librarians, so kids can enjoy good books without interference from religious wackos, like Christians."


You may also vote to dismiss the issue. Discussion of issues is always welcome.

I have an issue with Rush Limbaugh's books but that doesn't mean I am going to forbid any child who can understand it from reading it. You can't police other people's kids like that, it should be in the hands of the parents if you don't want your kids to read it.

Hehe. :P That should be the Komarr motto, Zdenka-hun. ;)

Then suggest it in the motto thread, and I'll put it in the poll when the time comes. It's certainly my personal motto. :D
