^^ Not to be a dumbass but is that a Jim Jones reference or did that just go over my head??? Grimm you are freaking hilarious... I remembered that in Huck Finn the N word is used also, and I believe that was why it was banned. THe Color Purple is so good i can't believe that a little woman love is a reason to be banned, Love is love and god the character needed love so damn bad it just kinda breaks my heart to think about it... way too advanced for young kids, and maybe even so for h.s. but geez they hear alot worse amongst themselves... I bet no teacher wanted to teach it, as sexually retarded as we are here in America....anyways thanks for the answers miss ho and No day, I still donot get Catcher in the Rye if it was the use of damn how dumb, I think I also read it was Holden's general attitude, and if it is that geez why isn't Bart Simpson banned???? That was a fantastic book and who hasn't felt that they just donot give a rats ass about anything at least once in their teenage years..... Twitchy ITA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
