Sign d petition friends. IF U R a true Harry Potter Fan
And FWD it to your friends
To: Laura Mallory
Since 1997 wen Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was first published in the UK, the
HP series has been capturing the imaginations of the young and old alike, both in the UK
and all over the world. Published in more than 63 languages and selling over 300 millions
copies collectively of the six books.
Although the series is about students who attend a boarding school which teaches witchcraft
and wizardry, the books are not "texts of the devil" as some would like to think them. They
do not promote worship of the devil and make no mention of such. The books are purely
fantasy novels no different from The Chronicles of Narnia, or The Wizard of Oz.
Therefore, this petition is a response to Laura Mallory, a mother from Loganville, Georgia
(USA), who has crusaded to have the Harry Potter series removed from classrooms in Gwinnett
County Georgia, simply on the basis that her religion considers Harry Potter to be a "demon
child who worships the devil" and that the books are un-Christian and are teaching children
witchcraft. She believes the books corrupt the minds of children and will lead them to a
path of suicide, depression, and immorality, and has even claimed that the books have
influenced school shootings and continues to reference the Columbine High School shootings.
She has NEVER read a Harry Potter book ever.
Through this petition, it is my hope that we may end Laura Mallory's ignorant crusade to
ban Harry Potter books, and that she may never publicly contest the series ever again,
either by court matters or school boards or complaints to school principals. She does not
have the right to control what thousands of other children read in Gwinnett County and
should no longer have a platform with which to spread her ignorance.
Sincerely,
Plz vist N sin ur petition @

More like capturing their souls of future torment.

Which is immediate proof that these books are satanic and sadistic in nature.

Poppycock! These books promote the worship of Satan and the taking up of the Dark Arts.
| simplyrahul wrote: |

The evil in Harry Potter is very prominent. Numerous people have committed murders because of these accursed books!
| simplyrahul wrote: |

All of which promote Satan's way.
| simplyrahul wrote: |

I'm with her all the way!

She speaks the truth.

Bless her soul.

Well, you could simply ingnore the topic?
I guess both sides overreact a little, but there's no need to ban either HP-books or HP-book-banners...
If nobody listens to her (Laura Mallory) she won't see the point of shouting that the books should be bannished.
So there really is no use in trying to stop her, if she's conviced about being right, she'll proceed anyway.
Anyway, I think both sides (pre and con) are a bit hypocrite 
(although, if I had to pick a side it would be pre-HP)

Those are all evil stories, evil to the very core. They are meant to corrupt the children. These children will be the future! Unless we stop them now...

Evil to the core. Yes I get your point.

This person just posted this same thing in 3 different places, and hasn't made any other posts. I doubt it's a real petition.

You are the most dumbest retard in the history of mental illness. Do you ride the short bus to school and wear one of those helmates? Be sure you don't drool on yourself or I have to get you a bib. Get a clue, all those stories have religeous symbolism, so go back to your retard class where you bleong, damn you are ill witted.

Please refrain from verbally attacking other members.
Simplyrahul may want us to sign a petition that would damn our souls to the fiery pits of Apokalips for all of eternity, but that does that mean we should insult that user for simply having a different (and wrong) opinion on this Harry Potter craze.
I appreciate your support bdbucky, but we can cleanse souls without verbal abuse.
