Ok, thanks. That's really all I'd have the right to ask for.
I am against all bans on information. Yes, I am pro-free speech. And you can buy books on Amazon right now that have bomb making tutorials.
You have it backwards. The 1st Amendment protects a fundamental human right of self-expression. If you wish to supress that fundamental human right, you much overcome a VERY large hurdle of extraordinary justification.
Libel is a narrow exception to free expression that, under the extraordinary circumstance that the information is false and is intentionally published with the intent to cause harm, only then can the speech be made unlawful.
So we have here a desire for prior restraint on the publication of true and accurate and already publicly available information on how to conduct perfectly legal activity. How can that possibly be justified?
Despite providing instructions for legal and illegal activity, you can right now go purchase a copy of The Anarchist's Cookbook on Amazon.
Seriously, though — I don't agree with the UK's position on weapons, but okay, I'm aware of it. And I think that the ban on female ejaculation is weird, but again, okay, banning variant X of porn isn't new. But we're talking about making illegal possession of books here. Like, a book that people elsewhere can go to the store and buy.
It is a play on the Anarchist's Cookbook, but the Anarchist's Cookbook is not banned. Here it is on Amazon.
Be warned; it was written and edited by an edgy teenager and contains so much bad information it has been accused of being a FBI plant to make potential terrorists blow themselves up before they become a problem. Among other things, it claims you can get high by smoking banana peels and contains instructions to boil gasoline over an open flame.
Back in 2007 or so I was involved in an effort to compile a version with the bad information edited out or corrected. You may be able to find a .pdf of our edit floating around older forums under the title "the anarchest cookbook".
also the 29th Edition of the Anarchist's Cookbook.
Don't forget The Anarchist Cookbook.
Amazon: Anarchist Cookbook $19.96 for soft cover lol
Well, I guess I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of the government then...
​
Amazon still sells the anarchist cookbook as well.
​
Which you can still buy on Amazon
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anarchist-Cookbook-William-Powell/dp/0974458902
I think the common one is the Anarchists Cookbook which owning it will land you in prison despite still being able to purchase it on Amazon.

Bombs are not difficult to make at all. McVay used diesel and chemical fertilizer to do this. Diesel, chemical fertilizer, ignition source and Ryder truck equaled that.
​
you have things like the good ol pressure cooker bomb and pipe bombs. Look, here's a web page on how to make multiple bombs and this is on the clear net.
Then you have the classic Anarchist Cookbook right there on amazon with a whole section dedicated home made bomb making with information sourced right from the library. https://www.amazon.com/Anarchist-Cookbook-William-Powell/dp/0974458902
Even WSJ agrees bomb making is easy: https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-homemade-bombs-are-easy-to-make-and-hard-to-trace-1521624601

You know I didn't write the law, don't you? I don't even enforce the law. I don't even agree with the law. I'm just pointing out that the law exists.
> If i quote an entire book and give citation, i can sell my work.
No, you'll still get into legal trouble with the publisher and nobody will publish your work if you just quote an entire other book.
> Try buying Anarchist cookbook then genius
Here's the amazon link. It's the second link when you look up the anarchist cookbook. It's barely been out of print since 1971. You muppet.

Don't believe everything you hear.
Anarchist Cookbook on Amazon.
>...and publishing this data without ensuring it won’t injure others...
Maybe amazon should ban The Anarchist Cookbook, it’s literally a tutorial for poorly educated fools to make bombs and it has been used by anti g8/g20 rioters and the columbine shooters.
>It's harder (and more expensive) to get a Chevy Express and he couldn't have driven that through the halls... You need incredible expertise and help to make an IED, Internet searches and buying things required in the store will trigger FBI watch lists and again.
A person could easily go on Amazon to purchase the Anarchist Cookbook or google it and do it without the FBI catching them or at least do it before the FBI really caught on.
Plus I doubt someone committing an attack would be against saving a few dollars up in order to carry out their attack.
We're all on a giant "watchlist" anyways. Just remember to say goodnight to the NSA and President Obama every night when you send your last e-mail or end your last phone call for the day.
Here you go: http://www.amazon.com/The-Anarchist-Cookbook-William-Powell/dp/0974458902
A good start.
Folio Weekly is well known for being an alarmist paper. Just because a book is on a banned list doesn't mean a kid can't buy it themselves or check it out at the local library. However, I'm somewhat surprised that the Anarchist Cookbook isn't on the list.
The Anarchist Cookbook. Trying to build a bomb will naturally change your life if done wrong.
