Shocking… Administrators at Sabino High School Tucson, Arizona taped over 10 comments in every yearbook at the school of 1,300 students claiming they were ‘racist and unacceptable’. Some of the comments mentioned race, but they were not offensive to a casual observer, like one Latina student who wrote, ‘Every Mexican needs a white best friend’. How is that racist?

One would think if the comments in question were deemed that inappropriate, the school administrators would have the common sense to deal with them prior to printing, rather than duct tape all the yearbooks.
