Student arrested, suspended for shooting a dinosaur in a story
(Reason): http://reason.com/blog/2014/08/20/teen-arrested-suspended-for-shooting-a-d
Summerville High School in Summerville, South Carolina, is wasting no
time: A 16-year-old student was arrested and suspended for writing a
story in which he used a gun to kill a dinosaur. The student, Alex
Stone, was assigned by a teacher to write a story about himself. Stone
chose to embellish his story with obviously fictional details, like
dinosaurs. But the teacher saw the word "gun" and the rest is history.

They should have seen some of the stuff I wrote when I was a kid. And
I carried a pocketknife from elementary school onward to today.
It's bigger now.
