An eighth grader didn't like the word "Nigger" in To Kill a Mockingbird. He and his parents support pulling the book from the school system, essentially, they want the book banned. Poor fools are too stupid to understand they are trying to ban a book that fundamentally characterizes race relations in the 1950's. Let's ban everything that's offensive! If we did, then no one would hate anyone else ever again! Woohoo.
Of course it doesn't work that way, so I will continue to channel my disgust in ignorant people through the internet.
