That article fired up my lingering hatred of grade school and the US school system.
I remember corporeal punishment that happened to a classmate at Catholic school in 2nd grade. And routinely, they'd make the entire class stay after school with our hands folded. One time, the nun held the class late and I missed the school bus. I was only 8, but endeavored to walk across a busy four lane highway to get home. My mom was frantic when she showed up at school looking for me and ended up yelling at the nun.
When I read the article, I couldn't help but wonder what the teacher was doing. Walks over, sees the scribble, and thinks, "Now, this is great teaching moment. Let me show her what I think of this small act of self-expression." And then she dials the cops. I bet the rest of the class was terrorized as well as the girl.
School is about controlling and crushing the spirits of young children. I hope they succeed in the lawsuit and show the school and police for the heartless brutes they are.

Perfect. First time I heard The Wall, I was in 5th grade. And I understood completely. By then, my self-esteem and dreams had been smashed. :(

I hear you man. I also spend about half of my education in Catholic school.

Wow that's where I live, I literally jog past that school. I'd be infuriated and sue the hell out of that school if it were my kid...
