Nothing says freedom like having police show up to swat the sharing of ideas and banish the written word.

That's – quite literally – what happened recently to Grace and Peter Hagemeyer when they erected a small book case at the end of their driveway. Despite hundreds of these things popping up all over the country, police are starting to crack down on them at the behest of city code enforcers. The police and city code enforcers always say that there's one vague, anonymous complaint that – by Jove! – they must investigate immediately.
