I'm a Texan and can't say I'm particularly a fan of the state politics or the current US Supreme Court, but at the same time, I can't say that this law particularly bothers me. I don't have children, and so I don't know if I can really understand what parents are dealing with in trying to ensure that their children are kept away from undesirable material, but it does seem rather difficult; I certainly don't envy them.

if you had kids, would it bother you if your neighbor told you legally what your kid has access?

“no, your kid can’t have access to that pg-13 movie. why? because i won’t let my kid watch it. therefor your kid can’t either.”

if that would irritate you, then this should absolutely irritate you as well.

these people need to learn to raise their own kids and quit dictating to everyone else. we would never try to ban their waltons or whatever. they need to mind their own business.

more than 10,000 book bans have happened already, this is about to get much much worse.
