Did you read? The Library ended up with $30,000for more LGBTQ materials as well of boxes and boxes of the books they tried to keep from other patrons.

Or the assholes stole shit and the better citizens were poorer by 30k. What about legal repercussions and getting the stolen goods back?

You definitely didn't read the article.

that sounds less like a backfire and more like a temporary reprieve because the groups that take these actions are better organized, funded, and with more members than the library's supporters can ever hope to match.

the examples they cite in the article happening across the country for this type of behavior proves that they usually win.
