Teen frisked, arrested for texting at school

One blog observes that a 14-year-old girl in Wisconsin may be the first American ever arrested for texting.

At Wauwatosa East High School, police were summoned because the student was texting using her cell phone. She was promptly charged with disorderly conduct, and cops seized her phone - after frisking her.

What? No waterboarding?

A timely question: was the school too fucking lazy to deal with the matter itself instead of calling the cops? (Yes.)

In an era in which everyone is expected to have a cell phone, I don't see how the school can expect to have someone frisked and arrested for having one.

Now you know why I'm opposed to laws that rob parents of the right to sue schools, don't you?
