Well, neither does the U.S., at least not since the days of
D.H. Lawrence. Don't worry about your good friends to the south becoming
the People's Republic of Amerika <g>.
If some library or school were dumb enough to ban the Harry Potter series,
that certainly wouldn't prevent the books from easily getting into
childrens' hands. In fact, it would probably increase their popularity,
if that's possible.
Besides, it's a moot point because nothing has been banned. The only thing
that happened was that a small, vocal group in South Carolina exercised
their right of free speech. In both countries we have complete freedom
to make complete fools of ourselves by freely expressing our opinions <g>.
