    No, not at all, I just think calling this socio-economic class-based is incorrect. Being in school is not a class (no pun intended).

      To support the idea that it is class based, I suspect we will find it is being selectively applied to poorer communities, which specifically drives the most able-to-change-jobs (often the best) librarians to move to other communities where this is not being applied.

      I base my assumption on historic selective enforcement of other laws with similar vulnerability to abuse - such as selective enforcement during prohibition.

      I believe that if librarians, of any kind, are being targeted, we should suspect class warfare because libraries are historically a source of improved equity.

      So my assertion is that any action taken against any library should be examined carefully under a lens of suspected class warfare.
