I assume you saw my Canada post.

Of course, we sometimes aren't much better.

A student in Indiana had her diploma taken away for making fun of teachers during a graduation speech.

Hmmm. She made an implied deal with the school, if I do the work and get the grades, you'll give me a diploma. She did, but then made a funny at their expense. So they reneged.

Sounds familiar.

The ICLU is on her case. Maybe I should call them.
