"Amazon believes it is censorship not to sell certain books simply because we or others believe their message is objectionable. Amazon does not support or promote hatred or criminal acts, however, we do support the right of every individual to make their own purchasing decisions," the company said."

Um, I'm positive pedophilia is a criminal act, so how are they not supporting or promoting criminal acts???

Amazon is an international company.

What do the Libertarians out there think about this?

Should the market determine the actions here? Of course, telling Amazon you refuse to shop with them until they remove the book is another "free market exercise."

Write... so they get into the mind of the rapist. It wasn't about the sexual at. It was about the power... he felt like he didn't have power over his life so he...

It's just all disgusting. Makes me wonder when any of these acts will become acceptable?
I never thought I'd live to see the day when any business would even consider selling a book on pedophilia, except to maybe how best to surgically remove the temptation.....without pain meds...just sayin....

Right. I don't see how this is legal. Free speach my *cough*. It puts the safety of children in jeopardy.

"The electronic book, "The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure: a Child-lover's Code of Conduct," by Philip R. Greaves II, apparently went on sale on Oct. 28 and costs $4.79 to download.

"This is my attempt to make pedophile situations safer for those juveniles that find themselves involved in them, by establishing certain rules for these adults to follow. I hope to achieve this by appealing to the better nature of pedosexuals, with hope that their doing so will result in less hatred and perhaps liter sentences should they ever be caught," the author says in the product description."
