Sometimes, it's because people in power find the concepts presented in a book threatening, like "Uncle Tom's Cabin". Other times, they do it because a group of people think that banning the book would be a protective measure, saving others from the wrongful ideas, and sometimes, as Erin pointed out, they ban the books just to try and get people interested in reading them.

Okay I just wrote whethere I owned them or read them. I don't think that the books should be banned. It's ridiculous. We went through a period of time so we could have the right to have these books. The book banning is like the civilized version of book burning. Not as drastic but it's what people can do. If people had more open minds to just realize and read books, and not to feel/think that it's threatening their little world:-p ( ... )
