Yes, it's all semantics, but let's be clear about one thing: both instances could have been avoided had the children <i>paid attention in the classroom and actually dedicated themselves to learning, rather than goofing off drawing pictures or writing in their diaries.</i>

I do agree with you 100% there, but by telling them they can't do what they did is pretty much the same thing as saying the 1st Amendment doesn't exist.
Believe me, I have had problems with the whole free speech thing at times, but a rule is a rule and a law is a law. We may not always like it, but as a country we're expected to live by it.
