Kieran King says he's done some research into the matter, and he believes marijuana
is no more dangerous than alcohol. The 15-year-old Canadian told some
friends about his beliefs, and he says Wawota Parkland School principal
Susan Wilson threatened him with police action, accusing him of using
and selling pot at school. Feeling his free speech rights were being
violated, he tried to stage a walkout at the school. In response,
officials locked the school down and suspended King and his brother
Lucas for three days.
