D...Wow, had not even heard about the amazon thing.<br /><br />Don't you think it's weird that if you are firm in your beliefs then you are hated? Shouldn't people be impressed with your resolve? It's not exactly easy to always stand up to people. <br />And I always feel like everyone is allowed their opinion except me. Really bugs me.<br /><br />I also wanted to stop by and let you know I got my package and blogged about it - thank you!<br />http://mollythepirate.blogspot.com/2010/11/generosity-of-bloggers.htmlMolly Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979813404407688739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720131890691099122.post-43798595976488475512010-11-12T11:07:10.229-05:002010-11-12T11:07:10.229-05:00It is so important to have integrity and self-resp...It is so important to have integrity and self-respect, Sue and you're a great example of "walking the talk."

I appreciate you posting this on your blog.<br /><br />I think readers were directing comments to “Claire” who appears to have commented on several blogs.<br /><br />My response was referencing your 1st amendment comment. Amazon is not the government, nor an agency of, so the first amendment does not apply.<br /><br />What many do not understand is this is not censorship; it’s about choices. Amazon chose to sell this book; I choose not to purchase it.<br /><br />But one step further, I chose to say it is wrong. Wrong to have been written. Wrong to have been published. Wrong to have been offered to the public.<br /><br />Some are simply responding to this and other ugly matters by spewing politically correct rhetoric ending in “it’s their right”<br /><br />I highly doubt the book in question was written “for children”,<br /><br />The author of “The Pedophile’s Guide,” Phillip R Greaves II, describes the book as an “attempt to make pedophile situations safer for those juveniles that find themselves involved in them, by establishing certian rules for these adults to follow,” and adds “I hope to achieve this by appealing to the better nature of pedosexuals, with hope that their doing so will result in less hatred and perhaps liter [sic] sentences should they ever be caught.”<br /><br />It is true, Amazon pulled the book from their virtual shelf (more than once today.) But the reason has more to do with the almighty dollar than ethics. Pedophiles can still purchase books on this subject from Amazon.<br /><br />http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2010/11/11/pedophilia-book-removed-from-amazon-but-others-remain/?mod=djemTECH_tFairfieldHousehttp://FairfieldHouseNJ.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720131890691099122.post-2898621750234887762010-11-11T20:47:25.567-05:002010-11-11T20:47:25.567-05:00Thanks for all your lovely comments!

I am glad that you were strong enough to walk away from he who shall not be named and that you are moving forward in your life. You can use the alphabet, I got it from elsewhere as well, if you wish to change it I don't see why not!<br />BlessingsFaerie Sagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755963393512150190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720131890691099122.post-11196830877893834632010-11-11T20:19:58.591-05:002010-11-11T20:19:58.591-05:00I know how you feel, I had the same kind of feelin...I know how you feel, I had the same kind of feelings about the amazon thing, though I am glad they pulled the book.
