Catholic Students Will Be Punished for Weblogs

• Catholic

Any student at Pope John XIII Regional High School in Sparta, NJ will be suspended if he keeps a weblog.

Kieran McHugh may offers a silly defence for forbidding students to have weblogs.

More likely it is just a way to keep students from daring to express their opinions.

McHugh said that what he was doing was not censorship it was common civility, courtesy and respect. McHugh said he was protecting children from sexual predators, cyber-bullying and harassment.

Some of the kids at the school think that the principal was a little miffed when some of them posted comments about the school in their blogs.

Wow, a Catholic school concerned about protecting kids from sexual predators. Ironic isn't it? Of course the real concern for the principal is that these kids should speak out about the school or it's faculty.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Catholic Students Will Be Punished for Weblogs. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
