Someone should have killed the fuk just for that book.
, although hard to read, I believe everyone should muddle throught it once.
I instructed an in-service class on diversity one year and got copies of this and several other controversial books (Turner diaries, for one) for the class. When I asked over the phone about them being in stock, I was hung up on. Going there in person got me the evil eye and a curt "we don't stock those books, it will have to be special ordered",In the end I had to go online to get these books.

If you "outlaw" a book because the subject matter is offensive to some, you are on as slippery slope.
