How would you feel if thirteen year olds couldn't use the bookshop because it contained offensive material like the marquis de Sade, or Ian Bamks's the Wasp Factory full or torturing animals, burning sheep, and a young person whose castrated testicles are kept pickled in a jar of formaldehyde? Clearly we must remove all books not suitable for infants from bookshops, to make them a safe environment. I agree we have to protect our bookshops and internets from being destroyed, through the intervention of loons like you.
