Texas Just BANNED These "Uncomfortable" Books

From the Young Turks today.  This, unfortunately, connects to what I posted about yesterday, indicating that there's a trend going on here.  

I've got a lot of strong feelings about this, but the Young Turks do a pretty good job of articulating everything, so I'll just let them speak for me here.  (They reference the Dr. Seuss controversy from last year, and for the record, I was against those books being banned as well--although in the case of Dr. Seuss, it was the publisher itself that was pulling the plug on those books, not government censorship, so it was a completely different issue, as I wrote about at the time HERE.)
