The best stories from America for me were Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder..............

Some libraries over here have pulled those because of racist overtones. They say they don't stand up to time. 

They were of a time, and from that time people learned and progressed  through living life not politics..........

Have they really progressed though?

No, because they won't 'Move On'...... as a progressive society, armed with guns, they still look back in anger and forget that they are the people of the FUTURE!
