WTF, apparently schools have to say sorry for freedom of speech?

Two highschool seniors in New York posted quotes from Hitler's Mein Kampf under their pictures in the yearbook. Neither of the quotes are offensive in language or context yet the school rushed out to say sorry for not blocking it....

Apparently in a rush to forget the past we are attempting to block the future...

The quotes are solid IMO and if I hadn't been told "..eww look what Hitler said" I wouldn't have known....

Now without knowing who said them, how are the following in any way offensive??

The quotes were picked by Christopher Koulermos and Philip Compton, both 18. Koulermos' read "Strength lies not in defense, but in attack." Compton chose "The great masses of people ... will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one."


Apparently the whole USA wears panties
