What literally kills people when they get an alternative opinion or simply information about vaccinations... which is the raison du jour, but the not the only information being blocked by these companies. What happens when the prevailing opinion in the future becomes that raising boys as boys is dangerous for their health? Girls as girls? Promoting religion to your children seen as dangerous to popular thought? Do we continue down this path and start banning literature on how to raise children properly, the bible? After all, it may disagree with YOUR OWN held opinion, so it must be removed, for the safety of the children, right? We are entering the territory of cheering on the thought police, where you disregard your own faculties and off load all of your exposure to information and decision making to a highly select group of people, with their own biases, much of it monetarily motivated. Do you understand what I'm saying to you?

Can't you really say this about the anti-vac community and the ones publishing and selling these books? Or am I reading your statement wrong and that's who you're speaking to?

> What happens when the prevailing opinion in the future becomes that raising boys as boys is dangerous for their health? So, a store deciding not to carry a book is the "thought police" but raising your child to eschew any behavior or, dare I say, thought that you deem insufficiently "boy-like" is....not the thought police? How do you feel about Christian bookstores? Should they be forced to carry the Koran, satanic literature, atheist books, and everything else they might disagree with? Or is it ok for them to exercise "censorship" since they're not censoring any ideas you like?
