So the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" is okay, but the video is not?

What if the items are donated to the library?

 

Later.

Your tax dollars still are involved in everyday functions that include these games and movies.

I don't read only "educational" books, meaning by your standard.

 

So, I should buy my books, if it were up to you?

Should the rest of us support your entertanment needs? Give me one good reason why we should.

Oh well.

 

If you new every way your tax dollars were spent, I'm sure you'd be angrier than you are now......about something so simple and petty as video games and movies at a library.

I think educational videos are fine.

Hasn't the library always had 33s and, recently CDs?

You know, if you're that dead set and feathers ruffled over it, go ahead with your dither. Nothing I will say will sway you. But, I do reserve the right to think you've gone and lost yer ever lovin' mind. :lol:

I'm not angry, just giving my opinion. :lol:

Is "To Kill A Mockingbird" an educational video?

I have a problem with that as well...

 

Two words, "buy them".

Why, because I have a different opinion than yours? I'm not ruffled, just voicing my thoughts on it. If that's OK... :p

Compared to say, Batman? Yep. :lol:

I think it's tough to determine whether or not a book (or a tape, or even in many instances a videogame) is educational or entertaining. I may read what is considered to be a classic novel (like "To Kill a Mockingbird") strictly for my personal entertainment; while getting a dose of education in the process.

What if it's a book on counting stairs in order to land your right foot at the top or bottom, is that educational?

 

Later.
