"Hood-Free Zones" The Mendacious and Manipulative 'Moms Demand Action'

Liberal Liars, how shocking! m/r

The Mendacious and Manipulative 'Moms Demand Action' | National Review Online

Firstly, the claim is just flat out wrong. It’s unconstitutional to ban books, as anyone with even a passing familiarity with American law knows. Little Red Riding Hood is not “banned,” it’s just — stupidly — not allowed in some schools. Schools, if you will, are “Little Red Riding Hood-Free Zones.” Which reminds me of something: Oh, yes! Guns are banned in schools, too! You try walking in with a copy of that book under one arm and that “assault weapon” slung over your other shoulder and see which your teachers take away from you.
Secondly, the weapon that the little girl is holding has been banned at some point in American history “protect” the children. When? Why, during the useless Assault Weapons Ban that was in force between 1994 and 2004. And why is it no longer banned? Because the ban did absolutely nothing.
