A Harps grocery store in Arkansas censored an Us Weekly cover, featuring new dads Elton John and David Furnish, with their son Zachary.  More from The Advocate:

A Harps shopper named Jennifer posted a photo of the move to censor the cover at the Mountain Home, Ark. store on Twitter. It shows the issue of Us Weekly, with a “family shield” to “protect young shoppers” from seeing the image on the cover, typically reserved for sexual or violent images on magazines like Maxim or Playboy.

The manager at the store said there was no comment, and a call to Harps’ headquarters in Springfield, Arkansas has not been returned.

Harps, founded in 1930, has 64 stores in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri.
