Oh my.

So there I was, innocently looking around for a list of the books that Laurie Taylor & Co. have taken issue with (there's one at the end of an article I linked to a while ago, but I was looking for something a bit more organized), when I came across an essay about her "Noble Crusade".

The essay was pretty much what I expected--the author didn't seem to have any issue with judging the books based on excerpts, rather than the full text.  Pretty par for the course.

But then I hit the comments.  Get a load of this one (I left the punctuation and spelling as is--just remember that this is a homeschooling parent):

I believe you. I am a homeschool mom and I quit using the public library years ago when we found a book in the juvenile section about witches and it showed them in all sorts of sexual positions and how to cast spells and things that I am ashamed to say. I put it down after 3 pages and came home and washed my hands. We do have a large number of people out there who do worship satan. We do not like to think so. Our governments and all arenas have been infiltrated with them . We never use the library.There are also a large amount of lesbians there. We call it the withch house.

Yep.  The withch house.  This lady was so hardcore that the plan2succeed crew almost kind of defended libraries.  Almost.  Kind of:

Catholic, my group is attempting to get public libraries to comply with existing law. We expose all kinds of things about libraries. We expose outrageous statements by library leaders. But I can say that so long as you review each book to be read by the child, remain with your child 100% of the time, even in the bathrooms, go during peak hours -- not late at night around closing time, and stay away from the Internet computers and printers, there is an almost 100% chance that you can appropriately protect your own child in your own way while still enjoying your public library.

And not all libraries are so bad as you say. Look around and find ones that are interested in protecting children instead of protecting the ALA. There are some, and my group congratulates them when we find out about them.

Kind of.  If you skip the insinuation that your kid might not be safe in the LIBRARY BATHROOM.  And the insinuation that porn is oozing out of the computers and printers 24/7.  Part of me does wonder if the "withch" lady was someone just pretending to be one of the anti-library crew.  But the rest of me thinks that she's genuine.  Yikes.
