Is this the real one? I am going to have to read this. This is one of the banned books and also they changed the words to be politically correct.
LOL! Just pay attention to the Huckleberry Finn eBook, I uploaded the wrong one, so you will have to click the 'update' tab and download from there. This download is fine though.
It drives me insane! A book is a book. I am very much against the PC crowd changing words so no one is offended. When they do that stuff it loses the true reflection of the point in time. As for banning books, since I am nosy as soon as I hear a book is banned, I feel the need to read it so I can see what it is all about.
Yeah, freedom of speech cannot be regulated and legislated or else it wouldn't be free expression. In the past, since communications were so narrow and limited, sometimes there were violations of freedoms. Today, it's much easier to simply control all of the official channels and media centers to prevent anybody from realizing they are being conned.
That drives me crazy also, just look at the story of the grasshopper and the ant, it's been altered so much by the PC crowd that the ant ends up feeding the grasshopper who still just sits around and sings.
