What I find fascinating is that several of those books (i.e. Of mice & Men, Huck Finn, To kill a Mockingbird, etc.) were required reading when I was in school. I guess times change but damn, that is getting pretty crazy.

I can understand American Psycho and the Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice not being appropriate for school but many of those books are classics of literature.

What's next? No more learning about Shakespeare, Eudipus or any of the Greek tragedies because that's offensive subject matter.
