I got banned from the Grand Rapids Public Library.

I was being harrassed by some people, right in front of two library employees. I asked them why don't you do something about it. They basically said it's not my job.

So I basically said you're a waist of tax payers dollars. I didn't even swear or raise my voice.

And I got banned. You would think they would kick out the trouble makers.

Maybe if you were wearing an employee nametag and they were harrassing you, they would have banned instead.

Librarians are one of the most hated people on earth.

I got banned from a public library when I was younger too. I was on the Internet reading some MLB trade rumor websites and the librarian wanted to know what I was looking at and was suspicious that I was doing something wrong. I told her as nice as I possibly could that it was private and that it was really none of her business because it was a public library.

I got given the boot so I came back with my parents. My dad reminded her that it's a public library and as long as I wasn't doing anything illegal she couldn't ban me. The look of anger on her face was priceless but I was allowed back in.
