That’s what Leonard Riggio, founder and chairman of the Barnes & Noble bookstore chain says. According to him, anyone who would dare place a book with a picture of a monkey next to a book with a picture of Obama has committed a hate crime, and belongs in a federal prison.
This malicious and despicable act is nothing short of a hate crime, which should be punishable under federal statutes.
Of course, Barnes & Noble is always screaming “free speech” and “stop censorship” when Christians ask them not to sell blasphemous or obscene books. Free speech is for porno; it’s not for ridiculing Obama.
