| | | Laura Mallory takes Harry Potter to court Do you remember the Loganville mother, who claimed that the Harry Potter novels promote witchcraft, evilness, etc.? Well, even though she tried to get them removed from Gwinnett libraries last May - and failed - she's at it again. On May 29th, the Gwinnett Superior Court will hold a hearing to review the decision by the State Board of Education to keep the books in schools. Mallory had originally tried to remove the books from her daughter's school, J.C. Magill Elementary.
Also, I live around the area, so I will be following this story closely in the papers. Make sure you check the news section frequently for updates.

She hasn't even read the books. She said they were too long to read.
IMHO she just likes all of the media attention she is getting.
The woman is an idiot who needs to get over herself.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maisie Travers Fifth Year | No fun tag! | Haha, Zombie! | Nyeaarr! Everyone is entitled to they're opinion. We get some people don't like the Harry Potter books. But we choose what we want to read. If kids in schools like the Harry Potter books, why would she want to take them out of schools just because she doesn't like because of what's in it? If she doesn't like them, she shouldn't read them and should not let her children read them. Can't force others to stop reading them. At any rate, you can't judge a book by its cover (or by what anyone says), right? |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Natasha (Tasha) Jonelle Lundren Second | Ooohhh Good Gawd!!!! There's too many of them types. I think we should snatch 'em all up, lock them in a room together for eternity, and read Harry Potter to them over, and over, and over, and over again!!!!
Do I sound as silly as her yet???

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jenna Reetz | Okay seriously if this actually does pass that Harry Potter will be taken out of those schools then it will start a big controversy and people will wonder if it should be taken out of all the schools. Geesh. I go to a Catholic school and I admit some of the parents don't let their kids read Harry Potter because they think it's against our religion (a bunch of rubbish in my opinion) but they haven't put up arguments like this to get the books out of our libraries and Harry Potter is probably one of the most books checked out. I mean I think people have a right to which books they can read, it shouldn't be all in the hands of this one woman, right?

Hogwarts RPG Name: Alicia Cranberry | Again? HP does no harm whatsoever, its fiction, and millions have read it. She really should read it, but of course, she can't even stand to look at the books. This is becoming outrageous!

She refuses to give up even if they already denied her several times. I guess she wants to win this battle really bad, no I am not taking her side. I agree there is nothing wrong with Harry Potter at all, just some imaginary fun in it what's the harm?

God... this is the heights of dumbness.. she seriously shud be made to read ALL the books asap, before she goes around making these claims.. ok so if harry potter promotes witchcraft, sidney sheldon must be promoting theft and adultery, dan brown must be encouraging atheists, n agatha christie wud be doing a great service to all criminals around the world... so we file a suit against all these authors n more huh?! way to go lady...

she shouldnt dothat, just cause she hates HARRY POTTER, THE BEST THING EVER ON THIS PLANET! she can just ignore it, not take it away. if she was my mom, and she tried to do that, i'd punch her right on the face.
