From where I am sitting,this looks very much like the kind of reaction you'd expect from a minor South American dictatorship.This is not the manner in which a country that prides itself on free speech and the right to democracy should behave.

The last statement in the article says it all for me.

"If they thought it was serious enough of an incident to call in the Secret Service, it should have been serious enough to get the parents involved," Ehrlich said.


Thank God that we do not have a Secret Police force in this country.The idea that we would need a specialist goon squad to protect our Prime Minister from our own school students would be absolute fantasy.
