Can we talk about how Fahrenheit 451 is still getting challenged in schools
I was at a library board meeting in my town last Tuesday and three parents wanted to pull it from the 10th grade reading list because it 'promotes disrespect for authority.' The irony would be funny if it wasn't so exhausting. Has anyone else seen this book get targeted recently?

In Florida last year they tried banning it for promoting rebellion, same irony you mentioned @ryan_nelson.
