Huh. It got into the news.

If this is the case I think it is, they forgot one minor detail. They forgot that this kid was tailed for several weeks without the permission, or knowledge, of his parents, by official note-taking people. As for 'not permanantly barred from the playground', I think I heard that they were threatened with trespassing charges...? I could be mistaken, I haven't been paying that much attention.

Yep, same one, and you're right, they were threatened with being arrested if he went back on the playground. It was also in the Washington Post a while back with a similar idiotic slant against the kid. :-p

Did you see the letter to Falmouth (writing about how this one guy will NEVER vacation there because they're a horrible bunch of bigots etc.) that somebody had posted a few days back? I was going to do a copy to my LJ but was too busy... I think I'll try to find and post it now.

That's the case, all right.

I think a flood of letters to the editor is in order...

Yep. And then they complained that the kid said he was being spied on. Here's a hint: /don't spy on him and he won't say you were/. It's so crazy, it just might work!

I am ashamed of my region. >_
