Take the time and write the mayor of Leawood a email telling her how ridiculous this whole thing is...

maybe the issue is some people love books and share them, and others prefer to destroy literacy.

The local argument is that the locals of Leawood are paying very high taxes to live there in the expensive suburb knowing full well the city has a ton of codes and ordinances like a Homeowners Association. Their tax money built a 5 million dollar libary and that is where many believe the books belong.

Its not the kid! The kid has been paraded around on the media for sympathy AFTER they were forced to take it down. Mom and Dad did built it and ran it.

Twas no fucktard. The kid was pulling all kinds of illegalities with his stupid, unecessary libarry. As it should be: the illegal structure was reported to the proper authorities who removed it per association statutes. I mean really, if you allow this jerk his dumb libarry, every dumb kid in that pretty neighborhood will have one, then propery values go down and gang viloence.

God bless the child, his family who supports building literacy among children, and his grandpa for building the library.
I remember yard libraries; it's been so long since I've seen one: they're cool!

They should just run a single long 2 by 4 from the roof of their house to the shed and tell the city "There, it's connected...now fuck off."

Re: Kansas Boy Forced to Remove Little Free Library From His Yard
Looking at it, real close, the town of Leawood should reconsider the fact that this is not a "Structure". It rival a cardboard box since it has NO FRAMEWORK! These idiots and their dumb-ass rules.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59662400


To your point...
They allow "play structures" if you saw this "library" it's about 2'x3'x1' deep. It's attached to what looks like what used to be a bar stool.

The whole thing stands about 4 and a half feet tall.

It's tiny.

Re: Kansas Boy Forced to Remove Little Free Library From His Yard
I think more to the point is that the library was filled with shit books like Game of Throns, bibbles and Little Tattooed Dragon Girl books. I'd shut that little fucker down too based on that.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2085841


Reading is good on principle, you get people started reading comic books and romances, you never know where they'll end up.

The most serious reader I ever knew started out on comic books and science fiction, as an adult he would read tome upon tome of hard core military history for fun.

As long as people are reading books, there's at least some hope, no matter what the books are.

When kids are starting out reading, you want them to learn that reading is something to do, the content is not that important. When they're older they'll probably start reading highbrow stuff that would meet your approval, if it's in the pile along with everything else.

Trash can be good, I've read my share of it, and my share of classic literature, and my share of history and nonfiction and technical stuff.

Of all the things to be against in this world, books would be one of the more ridiculous things to get all critical about.

The issue is probably that some stranger could walk into that garage, get accidentally but heinously hurt (say an ax fell on his or her head), and sue to little boy's family for a million dollars. It's to protect the family from their own naivete.

It is my understanding only the actual legal name is bound by the city ..

Since the city exists only as a corporation ..

and corporations use a lower form of law ....

than I would presume that the legal is a corporation which we are tricked to act ... as
