Good news If this is a false alarm, but assuming it were not, I the
"legalistic" angle would be largely irrelevant.

The real issue, IMHO, is not whether you are entitled to do A or B,
but whether you would decide for B, and why.

Even those who would not challenge your personal freedom not to sell a
given book may well deplore that PC views become so dominant as to
affect our cultural consumptions.
