I've gotta say, this scares me. Thank God I'm outta highschool in a couple months. I've already been through this whole witch-hunting thing though. I'm a quiet kid, I keep somewhat to myself and (God-forbid) I happen to own a rather nice black overcoat, which I'm fond of wearing. (I go to a private school, so dressiness fits.) Based solely on these facts I was accused by random classmates (whose identities I was never allowed to know) of being a member of the trenchcoat mafia, and suspended for three days until I recieved a psychological evaluation (at my family's expesnse) saying I wasn't a threat. And afterward, despite my innocence throughout, I never recieved so much as an apology from anyone in the administration. God, this world scares me...
