Overzealous thought police arrest teacher

Teacher Arrested In Connection With Web Posting About Columbine - News Story - WISC Madison: "WEST BEND, Wis. -- An Oak Creek High School teacher has been arrested after authorities said he posted comments online in a debate about teacher salaries, saying the Columbine High School shooters were heroes. James Buss, 46, of Cudahy, was arrested Thursday by West Bend police and released after posting $300 bail. He has been suspended from his job. He could face criminal charges. A message left at his home was not immediately returned Saturday."

Ok, what he said was stupid, but how can you arrest him for it? He has freedom of speech. Even stupid speech is protected. He deserved to be fired, but arrested? The Founding Fathers would be appalled.
