That one's really not applicable to this discussion, because Card's Bad Thoughts are not contained safely inside his head where they'll do no harm. Instead he takes great delight in spewing them as far and wide as he can. He believes that it's his duty to restrict the Civil Rights of an identifiable minority. Indeed, he believes that it must be made illegal simply to be that certain minority, and that violent revolution is an appropriate response towards Governments who protect those rights. He has worked tirelessly toward his goals, and every dollar that people pay him for his work goes towards those goals.
Speaking as one of the people he so vehemently wants to make illegal, I say screw that noise. The fewer people who pay to see his work, the fewer dollars he has to make being me illegal.
It's not about 'protecting' readers from his work, it's about starving him of the means to his unconstitutional ends.
