Hellmark, I loved that one, too, and I like the idea. Someone make an Urban Dictionary adjustment:

Scroggins: Verb; To ban a book, movie, or other source of information due to a perceived conflict between a fictional worldview and the banner's own narrow worldview. I.e., "Slaughterhouse Five was in the Missouri Republic School Library until it got scrogginsed." See also, "Bob has been scrogginsing for Slaughterhouse Five to be removed from the Texas school libraries as well."
