I am actually confused by their desire to ban everything. It is confusing. Don't they see that they are being the book banners--the ones trying to control everything? How do they justify this in their own minds?

In the '60s and even '70s, there were groups who wanted to just make sure pornography was kept behind the counter--the opposite side said, "don't look, turn the channel, etc". And so, people did. They actually at least had a point.

But these people who want everything to go away, Shakespeare, Greece, the Odyssey--on and on--Christmas songs.
Why don't they just turn the channel? Do they think that if they get rid of everything that offends them, that we will have a pure world? What is their point?

they should make every one of them read the kids' book, "The Giver." It is a great example of what happens when you get rid of everything offensive and it does it in a middle-grade book that they could understand.
