This is an obscenity. It is worse than book burning, to edit with words of a classic because it doesn't fit with your politically correct paradigm is the ultimate in corruption.

Huckleberry Finn is a fictionalized, but fairly accurate portrayal of a time in American history and the culture in which Samuel Clemmons grew up.

This is more liberal do-gooding by white liberals who live in white guilt. It is reminiscent of New Orleans back when the blocked of and hid the old slave auction blocks. Pretending something didn't happen is worse than endorsing the offending behavior. How can people learn if they are protected from the truth?

Liberals are the ultimate racists.

Apparently it is contagious. A few years back I noticed that one of online sites dedicated to honoring Lincoln removed the n word from one of his speeches.

"This is an obscenity."

In the words of Walt Whitman, "The dirtiest book of all is the expurgated book."
