I agree wholeheartedly. Only problem is: we WEREN'T quibbling over 'degrees of porn'. I was disputing whether porn was being placed in Utah's school libraries
at all. Your opinion based on the skimming of another novel gives me a high degree of certainty that nothing even
approaching the average person's definition of 'porn' has been placed in any school library. What I'm hearing is an objection to books that acknowledge sexual encounters of any kind happening between characters in books being available to students of any age in state schools.
Keeping your own kids out of public schools seems like a much more reasonable approach to parenting than supporting bans on what other parents' children are allowed to read in public schools is.
