Score another stupid for Florida!

It looks like the Nazis down in Florida are going to have another history lesson.

I'm old enough to remember when "parental warning labels" were applied to the sleeves records (real vinyl) back then) because *somebody* thought the music had _bad lyrics_.

This caused all the labelled records to be bought in record quantities.

Now Florida wants to add this label to books they want to ban:

“This Advisory Notice shall serve to inform you that this book jas been identified by some community members as unsuitable for students,” the label states.

Yeah, those are the first books that will disappear from school shelves - taken by the students who want to learn what their parents don't want them to know.
