Idaho man
protests The Joy of Gay Sex by checking it out of
library

An Idaho man has checked out the The Joy of Gay Sex from his local library in protest of a recent library board decision to keep the book on the shelf. The book has been at the center of a controversy in Nampa, Idaho, that has library officials pitted against parents who want books dealing with sexual matters removed. Earlier this month the library board voted 3-1 to keep the books in circulation but place them on higher shelves and routinely sweep the library to make sure they are not lying around. But Randy Jackson, who led the parents' group trying to ban the books, checked The Joy of Gay Sex out of the library and has said that he has no intention of returning it any time soon. There is no word yet on whether the library plans to fine Jackson for the overdue book or whether it will buy a replacement copy. (Sirius OutQ News)
