What purpose do book bans serve when those same books can be bought off Amazon?

It's ridiculous

You completely destroyed your premise of a book ban when you admitted the books can be acquired anywhere.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

@SW-User Well yeah, that's what I'm getting at. So what's even the point of people banning books when those books can be acquired anywhere?

no books are banned if you can get them anywhere. A restriction within a school is called that by hysterical ninnies (and mendacious troublemakers) to ridiculously make Nazi terror comparisons.

In the early blog days we'd invoke Godwin's Law on those fools and they'd be deemed the thread loser immediately.

There are no book bans in the USA. Stop this nonsense

Then what's the point of banning them? My former high school banned two LGBT books from their library when they didn't have to do that.
