Banning any book should be a criminal offense.
Idk man Mein Kampf should probably stay banned
I don't know if you've looked through any banned book lists recently but Mein Kampf doesn't tend to be on them.

My next question is, why not ban it?

Over here it is not forbidden, but you did not get permission to reprint it...
