3,096 | 2 | I belive that they need to keep every thing and gain more. Their is so much to luearn about. The more information you have the better. I for one think that they need to put more magazines on the stands so you can have more information.

3,097 | 2 | I @CAPS1 would like @CAPS4 if nothing was censored, but I don't matter, right? I am the kid that has no choice in the matter. @CAPS3 should I not care about what I am forced not to see?

3,099 | 2 | Twilight, @PERSON1, or even The @CAPS1 @CAPS2 series are books that many guardians do not allow their children to read due to their beliefs on what is real and what is not. Magic, spells, and vampires many of us know are not real but others do not believe in what it is that is being taught to the younger readers. My pe... | 3 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,100 | 2 | I strongly disagree.I think that materials should don't be removed from the library.@CAPS1 all the materials are part of the library and for the school and for us too.All the materials, such as books, music, movies, and magazines, cd's. should don't be removed from the library.I got my own reasons that materials shoul... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,101 | 2 | No, i do not think that books, magizines, movies and music should be removed. However, I do think that the books, magizines, movies, and music should be monitred by age. The reason why is because younger children sould not be reading , listening, or watching material that is for adults or teenagers. They way thes... | 3 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 3 |
3,102 | 2 | Picture yourself walking through the library with your child. Now think of how hard you worked to teach your child respect and manners. Imagine all of those values going down the drain by them reading one bad magazine or listening to one explicit song. I agree with the censorship in libraries today. Most people wo... | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 |
3,103 | 2 | I feel as we are letting kids these days do as they feel, and do what ever they want. We are making them think that we don't care what they are involved in, but thats not true. We need to set boundries for what kids should and shouldn't be able to do. We need to show them that we know what they doing. I think that ... | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 3 |
3,104 | 2 | The media is destroying our youth! this is something we hear everyday. Teachers are telling us this, while parents and grandparents are telling us how mush different their world used to be. They explain how the media of their time wasn't as open about sex and violence. They go on to say how they didn't have violent vid... | 6 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 |
3,105 | 2 | Censorship in libraries should not be a big deal. There are materials in libraries that are found to be offensive to some people. To solve the problem, everything should not be censored. Why can't those that find it offensive just steer clear of it? I believe it should be a persons choice to read something or not and i... | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,106 | 2 | The library is a place of learning, discovery, and knowledge, available to anyone willing to take the time to engross themselves in the rows and rows of information. Including children's books, novels for young adults, @ORGANIZATION1, @PERSON2, music, and movies, the library gives us a magnitude of opportunities to dis... | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 |
3,107 | 2 | Two of the many privaleges that we have as @CAPS1 are freedom of speech and freedom of expression. Although some bodies of work @MONTH1 be percieved as offensive or inappropriate, I believe that they should still be available to the public. Some might agree with the topic being expressed, even if it is offensive or ina... | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,108 | 2 | Libraries are known as places where a person can go to find material on almost any topic they could want to learn about, whether that material is a book, movie, or magazine. Anyone can use the library, and it is a valuable resource to many people. So why do some libraries insist on removing some of those valuable mater... | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,109 | 2 | Katherine Paterson stated this quote, ' All of us can think of a book that we hope none of our children or any other children have taken off the shelf,' @CAPS1 I agree . I feel that some of the books we have in our @ORGANIZATION1 libraries today just shouldn't be there. Offensive books, music, movies, and magazines can... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,110 | 2 | Do I think that certain materials such asd books, music, movies,magazines,etc., should be removed froom libraries, no, because people might need to know a certain information, certain lessons are taught in different sources, all sources are liabilities. Now, you just @MONTH1 need certain information, and in those s... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,111 | 2 | The right to remove a book off of a shelf is not good thing to do. My view on the subject is that, if this begins there will only empty shelfs in librarys across the country. Once the removing of books start there will be hardly any left. We use books everyday, for students we use them to learn and for a entertainm... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 2 |
3,112 | 2 | Libraries should never remove any material just because it @MONTH1 be found offensive. Something that is offensive to one person @MONTH1 not be to another. If the material was so offensive that it went against the law, then it probably wouldn't have been published in the first place. People often get offended i... | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,113 | 2 | I dont believe books should be takin off of the shelves for being offensive. Some books that are found offensive by one person might not offend another. People @MONTH1 have the right to say that a book is offensive if that is how they feel, but they do not have the right to deny others the right to read that book. I un... | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,114 | 2 | Many people go to libraries; such as children, parents, and grandparents. I have come to realize that their purpose for going to this community loving place is to find peace and quiet. Some don't even go there for the books. They will engage in music, magazine, enjoy a cup of coffee, or simply get on the internet. Now ... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 |
3,115 | 2 | There are many people that think certain books, music, movies, and magazines are offensive and should be taken off the shelves at libraries. If you had to do a project on a subject that was offensive to certain people and there was no information on it wouldn't you be a little upset? If you found somethings that are of... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 |
3,116 | 2 | I think that if there are books, music @CAPS1, movies, or magazines that we should have a right to take it off the shelf if its offensive. The reason why I think this is, because I have a baby girl who I don't want to see that kind of stuff. I don't want her listening or watching movies or reading anything offensive or... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 |
3,117 | 2 | Going into a @CAPS1 everyone has there own opinons as to what they should see on the shelfs, and what should be put out on the shelfs for everyone to see including children of all ages. Some people @MONTH1 agree that there should only be thnigs that is age appropiate for everyone, others disagree. In my opin... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |

3,119 | 2 | There are more than six billion people in the world. That means there are over six billion different personalities and opinons of all these distinct people. It would be virtually impossible to remove all aspects of media that could be found offensive, because almost everyone is offended by something. Some media can be ... | 4 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 5 |
3,120 | 2 | What is offensive to you? See your answer might be different from the person sitting right next to you. There are so many materials in the world that are found to be offensive. The world wouldnt be any different if we were to pull all of these offensive materials off the shelves. There wouldnt be anything left because ... | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,121 | 2 | I, personally, do not think that books, music, movies, or magazines should be removed from the shelves because they are found offensive. However, I do believe that there should be a way to protect adolescent, still-developing children from reading books that @MONTH1 offend them or introduce them to new concepts or idea... | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,122 | 2 | Why @CAPS1 @CAPS2? Is there movies, music, magazines, books, and more in our libraries today seen as offensive to some? A good portion of people believe so, and there is some that @CAPS2 doesn't even concern. So should they be removed from the shelves of our public libraries or should they be able to stay? Katherin... | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 3 |
3,123 | 2 | I believe censorship should be used in libraries to a certain extent. There are too many children that have access to inappropriate materials at the library, but some of it could be useful. There was a time when I borrowed a movie from the public library. When I went home to watch it with my mother, it turned out t... | 3 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 |
3,124 | 2 | Have you ever been offended by a movie, book, song, or magazine? Did you have a choice on whether or not you watched and/or read the item? The question that seems to be of intrest to people is should these items that are offensive be taken off the shelves. I don't think they should. I am sure that you could ask any... | 5 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 5 |
3,125 | 2 | Libraries have tons of books from comedy all the way to violent.Some people like reading books about war and violence while others find it offencive. No matter what the book is about people have the choice to read them or not so why should libraries have to remove books that some might find offensive? They shouldn't! E... | 5 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 |
3,126 | 2 | Real life is rated @CAPS1 so why pretend it's not? If a library feels that if a book is too graphic, a movie too violent or that music to agressive then its their own choice to remove it or not. It is true that that it's pointless to try and censor the lives of kids and teenagers.Explicit content is all around not only... | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,127 | 2 | There are many books in the library that shouldn't be there. From books about racism, violence, or pornagraphy I wouldn't want my young children to be able to take those type of books out of the library. A library in a school is a great way to help sudents with projects, essays, or just to read. If my child was in ... | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,128 | 2 | Books can be good things, but are they always good? They teach us things, entertain us, and are sometimes good pillows, but they can also be bad things. When a book is inappropriate for the reader, then it should not be on the shelves of the library. Music is the same way. The library should absolutely take the boo... | 4 | 4 | 5 | 4 | 3 |
3,129 | 2 | Just because I agree with something, do you have to agree too ? Your cousin believing in one thing,means you have to believe in it also? No,not in my opinion, and I hope not in yours either. If you were to see something you find offensive does that have to mean it offends another around you? The world contains things t... | 3 | 3 | 5 | 4 | 4 |
3,130 | 2 | offensive materials in libraries should not be taken off of the shelves because of their content. Writing is an art form and censoring what an author writes could obscure their message. people live around offensivness every day on the street and in public places so censoring it in libraries would not protect anyone. Re... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 2 |
3,131 | 2 | Libraries are sometimes connotated as very boring. Walking up and down isles looking at all of the books, and wishing that they were all more interesting. Minutes after searching through the one shelf you have been rummaging through for what seems like hours, you get a glimpse of a very interesting title. Inside of thi... | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
3,132 | 2 | Brian @PERSON1 @NUM1 @DATE1 @CAPS1 @NUM2 Censorship in Libraries Should there be censorship in Libraries?

3,133 | 2 | To begin with I feel everyone should admire the libraries. I feel this way because at one point of time we didnt even have books let alone libraries to get books from. A library is a place that has a peacful and calm environment. People come to hang out at the library to collect good books, surf the internet, check out... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 |
3,134 | 2 | Some people might think that it is a good idea to censor things on library. People might think that some of the material might be offensive of bad for the youth of the people who go to libraries.People might think it @MONTH1 be better to take the bad and offensive item off the shelf. I have a different opion on the sub... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,135 | 2 | Okay, to me, people are way to moral in the modern world, i was taught that if you have a problem keep it to yourself. Most of everyone know that censorship is a big deal but it doesnt have to be. I know that somethings are a little, risque, but getting this our their quicker would be a better solution. Your probably a... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,136 | 2 | Have you ever watched or seen a book or even a movie that you do not think kids should be reading or watching? I have, heard of many books. There are even music out there that only adults should be listening too. There are some parents that are strick on what their kids watch, hear, read or sing. I know for a fact that... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,137 | 2 | Some books in libraries offend others. So should they be removed? That is the point im going to get across today. Keeping people under self-control is top priorities for the public. So why do they keep releasing and publishing books if it offends certain groups? Graphic and gorey books are books usually that disgus... | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 3 |
3,138 | 2 | In libraries, there should not be censorship on materials considering that it's an individual's decision to read what they prefer. There is no appropriate standard on what makes a book offensive to a group, so it should be undetermined as to what makes a book offensive. In a public library, many children, who the ... | 5 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 |
3,139 | 2 | Honestly there's alot of books and magagives that need to be taking off the self.

Also alot of book refer to drug and sex now a days and absolutly hate it! The last book I ... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,140 | 2 | I think that removing books from a library that are offensive shouldn't be allowed, first off because people have different taste on the books they read. I also think that the books that the libary carries are educational, they might be offensive to people but sometimes they are good for learning new things about the w... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,141 | 2 | To @CAPS1 it @MONTH1 @CAPS2: @CAPS3 I walk into a library, I want to be able to think I am in a peaceful place where I can find books that are helpful for what I need and are not harmful to anyone. Anywhere I go I want to feel like a free person and shouldn't have to worry about things that will hurt others or myse... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 |
3,142 | 2 | Comics, romance, adventure books, and mystery books are just the few different types of books out there as well as the magazines and music we listen to. With a little bit of everything, and whatever your passion is, we have that right in our local libraries to go look at or hear whatever pleases us but, some of the peo... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 |
3,143 | 2 | To start, if any materials in the library such as books, music, movies, or magazines are found offensive i believe that they should still remain on the shelves. This book or music @MONTH1 be offensive but everyone is intitled to their own opinon. People have all the freedom to read, listen or watch anything that is app... | 3 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,144 | 2 | Censorship is used in the media to prevent people from being offended by what they see or hear. Although censorship isnt usually a bad thing, it is sometimes over-used. Not everyone has the same views and morals, what @MONTH1 be considered appropriate for some people , @MONTH1 be viewed differently by other cultures or... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,145 | 2 | Censorship in libraries is not necassary. No reading material should be taken off the shelf. Every book has a different experience that can help a child learn. If the gurdain of a child believes that a certain book is bad or offensive; then the gurdian can forbid the child to read it. If people began to take away optio... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
3,146 | 2 | Should certain books be banned or shouldn't certain books be banned? In my own personal opinion no I don't think that any books should be banned from a public libaray. The authors of books have freedom of speech so yeah some books @MONTH1 offend people but if it offends them they should try stay away from that book... | 3 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 3 |
3,147 | 2 | IN MY OPINION I THINK THAT SOME BOOKS PROBABLY SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE SHELVES IF SOME OF THE BOOKS AREW FOUND OFFENSIVE. SOME OF THE MOVIES AND BOOKS PEOPLE FIND OFFENSIVE CAN BE PRETTY BAD AND SAY NASTY THINGS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. SOME MUSIC CAN BE PRETTY OFFENSIVE TOO BECAUSE IT CAN SAY NASTY THINGS AND THIN... | 2 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
3,148 | 2 | i believe that there shouldn't be any censorship in libraries. The reason why I say that is because of our first amenment which is freedom of speech we should be able to put anything in books, magazines,music,movies, and etc.. The other reason why we shouldn't take them off the shelf is because we should be able to tel... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 |
3,149 | 2 | You know when you find a @LOCATION1 book on the shelf and discover that the content in the book are not word that are oppropity for children to read.

3,150 | 2 | Freedom of press is a right not many countries have. America is the land of the free. To some, having this much freedom causes great things to happen. Without the freedom of press, many of the most classic modern literature would not exist and their messages would be unknown. To censorize the right to write freely abou... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,151 | 2 | The entertainment for children and adults consists of movies, music, sports, video games, and reading. Books, music, movies, and magazines should not be removed from any shelf at any time. Libraries censor some material because of violence or inappropriate material. Children should have the right to read, listen, or wa... | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 4 |

3,153 | 2 | Everyone has a right to read, listen, or watch what they want. Sometimes it's not always up to them. For example rated-@CAPS1 movies, most children under @NUM1 cannot watch them. Either its a law or the parents have made it a rule. Music I think is different. Some songs have a bad influence on children whether it has t... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,154 | 2 | Dear @ORGANIZATION1, I think that it is wrong to remove offensive and other non offensive books from the shelves in the library just because one or two students do not like them or do not want to see others reading them. Somethings are ok for reading and learning although they are indeed offensive it is o... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 |
3,155 | 2 | The censorship in libraries should be as gog as it is for that age group. Children of the age @NUM1 to @NUM2 should be able to read books with any profanity. they should be mature enough to get through a book that has name calling and uses the profanity without laughing or taking it offensive. Children that are @NU... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,156 | 2 | I am a citizen of the @LOCATION1 and I believe that the censorship on the material in libraries is not good but it could be better. It should be an age limit on certain books and magazines ect. in the library. Somethings younger children shouldn't be able to read because of the maturity level. I remember taking my litt... | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3,157 | 2 | If something is to be found offensive, than it should certainly be removed from the shelves. When parents send or take their children to a library, they do not expect their child to be able to pick up something that is not appropriate. Some items @MONTH1 offend someone's beliefs and be rude. Public libraries are just t... | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
3,158 | 2 | I feel that they shouldnt be removed due to the fact that somebody else @MONTH1 like that movie, book, music, or magazine.

3,160 | 2 | What is your opinion on reading materials? Should people be able to read what they want, or should we limit them to what they read? Every library has different choices.

3,162 | 2 | Censorship is one of the most broken laws in @LOCATION1. It is illegal to censor any publication such as books, magazines, music or movies.

3,167 | 2 | I think that all offensive materials should be removed from librarys so every one can read a book listen to music and watch movies with out being offended. They shuld have there own section for that kind of material. Movies that are bad should be taken off the shelf. ... | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 4 |
