In an email to me, Kauai journalist, Joan Conrow, wrote: "Maybe the librarian should take a couple of vacation days if she's 
so offended.  Can she really control who comes to speak in the library, or set guidelines for what they say? 
Since when does being a school librarian make her an arbiter of free speech or what can and can't be presented 
to students?  And is she, someone who is obviously pro-military, actually able to determine what is truly 
a "negative viewpoint" or "objective?""
