Is there a way I can get someone or some company to get me books that are illegal in the US? And if so how would I go about it without losing half or all my money?

    What books are “illegal” in the US? I really don’t know what you are referring to. Are you thinking of red states banning anti-racist and lgbtq books in local libraries?

        Confessions of A Hitman where it details a hitmans way to kill. I remember it because there is a part in there that says take the shoes and only toss one on the side of the road because no one just looks at one shoe. Which is hauntingly disturbing. But as a hobbie would like to get a lot of illegal stuff to collect besides drugs and guns.

      It’s either Confessions of a Hitman or Memoirs of a Hitman.

        It’s a shadow library. It lets you download a wide variety of ebooks.

    Now I am interested, what book would that be?
    Wikipedia banned books list shows me nothing currently still banned?
    I see a bunch of expected ones for my home country Germany, mainly Holocaust Denials, which is illegal here, but that’s not the case in the US.

      I mean I love your country had to do six month in the brig for absconding to visit all your county. I didn’t know you guys still banned books well since well you know. But basically would like to get an all illegal books not the stuff of morons like you said Holocaust Denieals and everything. I currently have a signed copy of Sadam Husseins book Zabbah and The King. I am probably in a small circle who collect banned stuff. I also have a gun which was given to me. A original made AK47 wood handle and all. It stay disasembelled above my bed. That is the first and last gun I will ever own. I also wanted to get a signed manifesto by Ted Kazinski but was too late.

      The Federal Mafia is illegal to be sold (but not illegal to own) becsuse it was deemed as deceptive commercial speech.

    Travel to a country they aren’t illegal buy them there and bring them back. No crazy forwarding scheme or anything.

    Buy it and get it delivered to the place you are staying.

    Are there books that are illegal in the US? there are books that are unavailable to buy in the US but I don’t think there are any that are illegal to possess. That may change with the rising fascism
