When 18-year-old high school senior Krystal Myers tried to speak out about what she perceived as heavy-handed religious indoctrination by her Lenoir City, Tenn., public school, she got a lesson in "Hazelwood justice."
School administrators removed her column, "No Rights: The Life of an Atheist," from the student newspaper. Justifying the decision, the district superintendent explained that the article would be "distracting" because it might provoke "passionate conversations."
