Tonya and PQBON's WebLog
In North Carolina parents of a child are out raged that their daughter brought a book home from the library titled "King and King". They are now holding the book hostage, which fine I say. Fine! your probably wondering. How could a super social leftist like PQBON say that it is fine. Well, here is why: loosing a library book makes you monetarily responsible for it. If the parents refuse to return the book they will be fined for the cost of the book or worse the late fees will compound unlimitedly until they return it. This will allow the library to buy not one but multiple copies.
Aparently a state law protecting the right to breast feed wasn't enough. It seems that the Osher Marin Jewish Community Center in San Rafael has a policy that says: You can breast feed anywhere as long as no one can see it. They asked the woman to cover up or move because some old people in the pool were complaining about it. She decided to cancel her membership and sue.
