Hmm, while normally I'd say none... but its damn tempting to imagine a world without twilight...

Why would you ban a book only a few thousand people have even read?

>> No.1395890

>>1395881
None. I'd rather have retarded teenagers and bored housewives reading Twilight than not reading at all and watching Big Brother etc. all the time.

The Pedophile's guide to love and pleasure. Not only that, but I'd have the author arrested and imprisoned.

But that's just fantasy, people aren't jailed for writing books in the U.S.

>>1395981

From this post alone I can tell you are retarded. I didn't use that picture because it had an Asian but because of the expression on his face which would mirror my same expression had I been able to do what the OP is saying we could do. To assume that I think hitler liked asians simply because of a picture I used is some dumbass logic. The fact you fail to grasp something so simple, combined with how much of a stupid your post makes you sound, is a good indication that you are a massive faggot.

I would ban anything related to WWII or history related to it so that I can secure a land for my people.

>Pride in one's own race—and that does not imply contempt for other races—is also a normal and healthy sentiment. I have never regarded the Chinese or the Japanese as being inferior to ourselves. They belong to ancient civilisations, and I admit freely that their past history is superior to our own. They have the right to be proud of their past, just as we have the right to be proud of the civilisation to which we belong. Indeed, I believe the more steadfast the Chinese and the Japanese remain in their pride of race, the easier I shall find it to get on with them.

Please, continue. Your points were fairly stupid, too, but it's quicker to just demonstrate your failure to grasp English grammar and extrapolate your stupidity from there.
