Teacher Suspended, Incarcerated For Science Fiction Story

[Olivaero]

People should be able to write what they want. Especially under a pseudonym, I mean did anyone think that the reason he wrote about school shootings was because he worked at a school so he wrote about an environment that he knew and was in the zeitgeist?

[Tekania]

It is about a bunch of kids investigating a school shooting, got it...and this would pose a threat because he might turn a few kids into amateur sleuths?

I will not have my children exposed to the likes of Encyclopedia Brown! At first it starts off innocuously enough, solving crimes like the theft of money from a lemonade stand, or exposing cheaters at school. After a while, though, you find yourself in a van with your fellow mystery fiends, traveling through the nation, checking out haunted amusement parks and abandoned mansions, having graduated to outright meddling.

Well, we could have gotten away with it... if it wasn't for those meddling kids!!!!!

[Organized States]

The land of the Free and home of the Brave?

FREEDOOOOMMMM!!!!
Hmm, not sure if people saying USA will be Police state is true or alarmist !@$%

It's alarmist BS.

The fact of the matter is, we're dealing with something that's totally new to schools, and that's mental health.

C'mon man, the thread is only four pages long...and you really only had to read the last one.

Do you know nothing of the damage to a generation caused by the Hardy Boys and Mystery Inc?

To say nothing of the evils of Nancy Drew, corrupting generations of young women.

Dammit, nothing like repeating a joke already made after you slammed someone for not reading the current page...I'm awesome...

Meh, you took the same concept, but phrased it differently. It still works.

I have to fear that freedom of speech no longer exists. The government's slowly becoming a police state.

V for Vendetta. Just like that

[Soldati Senza Confini]

What the fuck is this even?

This is complete and total overkill. A fiction novel does not a terrorist plot make.

Not only young people investigating, but women. Diabolical.

[Alcase]

This is a disgusting insult of literature.

Why would anyone have this as a cover for a fucking book about a school shooting?!

[Imperializt Russia]

Hang on.
The book was published three god damn years ago. In its e-book format, it's probably older still.

Krossephire Tech. The investigation of the impending second shooting takes place at Krossephire Tech. The cover is the least of his worries.

what worries me the most is that nowhere the article says that this completely stupid

The second attack which doesn't happen. At least, the blurb seems to allude such.
I'm not certain it is actually a "shooting", given the ludicrous body counts, just mass killings at a school.

Besides, that's an inference your brain has invented.

I think you missed the meat of that post. Say the name of the school out loud.

"Cross of fire". Is that a KKK reference and why isn't the school using that as an excuse to suspend him?

That's possibly the most pathetic of all the inferences to pick up on.

Probably because he's black, so it'd be pretty weird.

Wait...what is it you think I'm actually saying with the initial post you quoted?

The reason he's been placed under psychiatric observation is pretty weird too.

I think they were alluding to the name sounding like Crossfire, as in getting caught in the cross fire of two people shooting at each other. Or a CNN show.
