Shut Up! The Bizarre War That One Public Library Waged Against the First Amendment detailed my writing partner’s and my extremely entertaining three-year fight with the Orland Park Public Library that was overtaken by far-left radicals who insisted men had a right to sexually satiate themselves in public using publicly-funded computers. The fight was epic and it ended in a windfall lawsuit that went our way. That doesn’t happen very often. But besides the criminal element of the story, the underlying thread we unraveled was that the social justice dogma that demanded the bastardization of our First Amendment was coming from the American Library Association that runs libraries and crushes dissenters with an iron fist.
