Marian sent over Some News On Amazon from over at Forbes that says they are refusing to take down a book being criticized as encouraging child molestation.
David L. Riegel’s book, Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers, is causing more than a few troubles for Amazon, as the United States Justice Foundation, the Rev. Jerry Falwell, and others are trying to get Amazon to drop the book. Amazon.com says pulling the book would be an abridgment of free speech, protected under the First Amendment.
“We believe that providing open access to written speech, no matter how controversial or ugly, is one of the most important things we do. And we will continue to make controversial works available in the U.S. and every where else, except where they are specifically prohibited by law.”
