Respose to the Reading of Ths History of Book Publishing: Censorship to Consolidation

To my opinion those people back then were stupid and careless to think that they could silrnce the very world of certain books that felt like nothing at all. Like to not publish books like Alice in Wonderland and Tarzan both my favorite books. But, as a supreme court justice once said that if we use censorship all we are doing is having lack of confidence in it itself. Which means "we the people" may take away our own basic idenity as individuals in this dying world we call, "Progess". But now there are more things are stake than our own basic understandings. There are religious groups who are banding together to put a stop to other books that betrey their own ideals. This just became a two-way street, watch your back.

Respose to the Reading What johnny Should't Read (4-7)

Basically, the people of the early 1900's kept a lot of info from the local schools in order to protect the children/young adults from personal affairs until they came of age. By using relevance of certain things that the children are not ready for they move on with the happy lives so they do not know about it. But, this didn't come to past until the 1960's-1980's so lots of those children of those times who are grown up didn't know what to do at a young age how to survive or keep their head's high in the change world. Esspeically, since it wasn't in the textbooks just yet. So, to withdrew information that most adults should learn at a young age will be important for their lives soon to come is like imprisoning your own sense of joy and curiosity to express yourself.

Respose to the Reading What Johnny Shouldn't Read (1-3)

From pages 1-3 of the book talks about court cases of one person challenging local school boards in the forms of censorship towards special books for young ones. Some were going so far one school was nearly in a lawsuit that threaten to shut down the school. My opinion that in those days if people kept on suing left and right sooner or later the entire nation as we know it would have been equally separated into fundamentalists and liberalises. If that happens I'm moving to Europe.

Respose to the Reading of The Complexities of Censorship in Secular Textbooks

Censorship has reached the world of the Christian schools where the school officials are making sure none of the textbook titles are inappropriate for their students. But, let's not to say that most probability want to learn about other religious learning's other than Christianity But, those school broad people refuse to do so. I'm opinion no one should believe or follow in the ways of these Christian schools and should do whatever their heart tells them whether if it's positive or negative they can do it I know they can.

Respose to the Reading of Textbook Publishers Do BAck Flips to Avoid Offense

To my opinion it's just basically information about how to manipulate the forms of certain things that children shouldn't know about like the history of the Civil War, the riots of the 1950's, and even changes of America itself. But, to used censorship to block out important things to people at a young age is like stealing them of their play time to explore and learn. For if you learn at a young age it can follow you to your High school and college years about the reality of the real world.

Respose to the Reading of On Liberty

John Stuart Mill's work basically talks about the difference between governments ruled by tyranny or authority. In the beginning he was using historical concepts of tyrannies that ruled Greece, Rome, and his own country England and didn't exactly give the people their fair share. Those of tyranny would steal the people of their own right to think for themselves and do everything the ruler says. But, ones controlled by the people are corrupted by either the churches or the form of self expression like wisdom. Another form could be one with Practical judgment. But, even after all the great things each government will make one minor slip up could lead to war, removal of power, and the end of human life as we know it from John's stand point of view. I'm moved by his courage to express freedom of speech for liberty.
