Because as I said (and you've not responded to) freedom of speech implies freedom of listening. If
the government (or its funded bodies) decides what children shouldn't see, maybe one day it could
decide what the elderly shouldn't see. Parents, not librarians, should be responsible for what
their children are allowed to see.
