At least two parents in West Knoxville, Tennessee, are up in arms over an “inappropriate” reading assignment that was given to high school students at Hardin Valley Academy over the summer. The book at the center of the debate, “Robopocalypse,” written by Daniel H. Wilson, is said to be, at times, both profane and violent.
One of the lines in the book, for instance, allegedly reads , “I swear to God and all his cronies, darling I’ll f**king kill you.” It is this sort of sentiment that has parents outraged.

America is Not America anymore. It's pathetic.
Stand up & fight for what's right people----GO!
i can't believe that those darling little high school students are being subjected to such profanity & violence. i'm sure prior to reading this book they were all angels and their virgin minds had never encountered such a thing. how awful!
give me a break people.
