I Googled "Laredo bookstore" and I see only two places that could be general bookstores there: B.

The other Google hits are gospel stores, a comics bookstore, a used bookstore, and a porno shop. You might be just a bit quick on pulling the 'propaganda' trigger.
You’re forgetting the comic book store, the Christian book store, the Spanish-language bookstore, and City Limits Adult Entertainment (which for some reason is listed as a bookstore)!

What more could anyone need?

According to the 2000 U.S. census, 28% are "foreign born".
