I would say it's getting attention because he's an arrogant prick whose arrogance led directly to a murder and we're all curious if that even means anything anymore.

Wtf does riffing on Trump have to do with it?

Same. Rarely see it mentioned, which is a bummer.

Huntington Beach Leaders Will Try to Define What’s “Obscene” at Public Libraries (voiceofoc.org)
 

“S.E.X.: The All You Need to Know Progressive Sexuality Guide to Get You Through High School and College,” was one of the books quoted by Van Der Mark, which is not part of the young adult section of the library according to the city’s catalog.

Pulling adult books to prove a point about allegedly inappropriate material in the children's section is one way to do it, I guess.

Damn, I feel real bad for library staff and the mountain of nonsense that they're dealing with.

Quick tip (specially for men living alone): have a small trash can in your bathroom in c/adulting@lemmy.world

“I can’t believe that we are in this place in this moment.” (www.ocregister.com)
 

"Van Der Mark said she will present several examples of books found at city libraries that she says are too sexually explicit for children, including a collection of essays by women about losing their virginity in their teens that she said she found in the teen section at the Huntington Beach Central Library."

Absolutely wild that a book about the teen experience was in the teen section.
