Write Free and Get Locked Up?

16 Years Ago


Did anybody see this? Write Free and Get Locked Up: "A high school student's arrest over an English assignment proves there's a reason why thoughtful writers take time and editing."

As we scribble free thoughts to break the writer's block, to vent and b***h, etc. etc. - are we accountable for what flows? when does psycho/experimental become grounds for arrest? when does fiction or fantasy turn into threats? Is the id a dangerous thing to tap in regards to consquence? How far does the world really remove us from our words? Is it all just temporary knee-jerk reaction to recent violence - or does it foreshadow changes in legislation?

More random thinklings . . . please say something. ::confused::

wow. hmm...

I don't even know if i can offer an opinion on this one. Anything I say will, in some ways, be the wrong thing.

Well there you go... censoring myself... so I am not judged to liberal or conservative or whistle-blower or bleeding-heart.

(this was my honest first reaction to the question)
