So don't say it's OK to sell when you know that once it's used as a how-to guide and children start to get molested because of this book that nobody with any sense of right & wrong would still say it is OK to sell.
Sorry JSWolf - but I really don't think you have the right to make up a theoretical situation and then claim to have the knowledge of how a bunch of people you've never even met would react as support of your position.

I agree with you this book is atrocious. It really doesn't upset me to see Amazon halt its sale. Just from the description alone, it was quite obvious the thing wasn't even a real book. It's a bunch of scattered and nearly incoherent rambling from an obviously mentally ill mind. It is kind of pathetic that Twitter marketing gave it so much attention because now ... an infinite number of people who would have never before been exposed to it have seen it.

BUT - when you teeter into the point where you think Amazon should be pulling it from the Kindles of people who legally bought the book while it was available we are going to part ways. Nobody has the right to dictate that a legally owned book that I purchased should be erased from my library because they morally object to the material on it.

In other words, hands off my erotica dude.
