        This is ridiculous. They're worried about kids reading historical fiction yet they can watch our moronic president spew hate and lies?

        Really?Because Mississippi has not voted Democratic since 1976. Pretty sure it's NOT the left, and actually it's not about left or right

        Sadly that book is probably not in libraries in Mississippi.

        Incredible. The book & film are classics & should offend no one but racists. Should be mandatory reading/viewing along w/ ‘Inherit the Wind’

        Perhaps Mississippi parents need to read “To Kill a Mockingbird”…Perhaps those who oppose it being read have actually killed a mockingbird…

        It leaves me speechless that one of the greatest novels of all times now requirements parental permission. What has happened to us?????

        Surely to find books dangerous you have to be able to read?
