HeadlineOct 16, 2006

In California, a 14-year-old girl was pulled out of school last week and questioned by federal agents over a posting on her MySpace webpage. The agents approached Julia Wilson after she published a cartoon with the words “Kill Bush.” On Wednesday the agents removed the teenager from her biology class and questioned her for 15 minutes without her parents present. Julia said she her intent was to protest the Iraq war — not to threaten the president.
