I’m sure you’ve heard about this:


A high school freshman upset by the war in Iraq has been questioned by federal authorities after venting her frustration with President Bush last spring on her MySpace.com Web page.

Julia Wilson posted a picture of the president, scrawled “Kill Bush” across the top and drew a dagger stabbing his outstretched hand. She later replaced her page after learning in history class that such threats are a federal offense.

It was too late. …The 14-year-old freshman was taken out of class Wednesday and questioned for about 15 minutes by two Secret Service agents.


A similar incident involved a Mars Hill student earlier this year. From what I can tell, the majority opinion about the girl is, Well, perhaps it’s a little overboard, but she should have known better, and we hope she learned her lesson.

How about this: Parents: Don’t let your 14-year-old have her own MySpace account!
