Because some people keep going into bookstores, and when they see that others are actually reading, it makes them feel stupid I guess DX. Who knows why people do the things they do? lol, that woman is fighting Harry Potter books for the 4th time, trying to keep it out of schools and libraries.

She thinks it promotes witch craft, and makes it seem all 'magical and real' as she said. I could think of at least 15 other books in a school library that are substantially worse than Harry Potter :/

Im not sure how she could think it promotes kids to witchcraft, maybe she's on some form of drugs. What I think it might be, she caught her kids playing Harry Potter one day in the backyard. Thats how most of these little parential attacks against inanimate or animated characters start.

Nothing at all. I still dont know what it is this lady has against Harry Potter, I think she thinks that it corrupts the souls of kids if they read it. :/ I remember this same problem was being whined about over Quiji boards, remember those? A few parents tried to get them banned from Toys 'r' Us, because it had to do with predicting the future or whatnot.

Yep, those. There were a few parents that fought to have them banned from toys 'r' us, and they failed.

True, but I doubt they could have gotten a whole lot of people to join that fight anyway. Most people's reaction to an invite like that would have been "Fight a board game? I have better things to do.. Like work."
