I would like to know what has happened to the first amendment of out constitution?
A stright "A" student with no noticeable behavior problems is given a writing assignment and completes it and then is arrested for it because it disturbed some people.
If that's all it takes to get you arrested then every writer of any slasher movie ever made should be arrested too because I think a lot of people would find them disturbing.
The atmosphere is starting to feel like the Salem witch trials. When fear alone without the use of common sense starts to dictate our actions then we have a problem.
I am not saying some precautions shouldn't have been taken. Maybe a conference with the student and his parents should have been held to see if there were issues at school that needed to be addressed. But arrest should have been the last resort. Not the first.
