It's also sad that one person is exercising his right to "freedom of speech" and is attempting to change something that he believes is wrong. Whether this banning of books happens or not, here in all the United States of America, (Alabama included), he is exercising his right to the freedom of speech.
Why don't we all get worked up about something else worthwhile?

SAYING he wants to have books banned is fine. Going ahead and banning books is not. Freedom of speech does not protect the banning of books. He can stand on the rooftops and say he wants the books banned, but actually doing it would cross the line.
