In the one I got in trouble for, I drew Nazis jumping to their deaths as they killed themselves. I thought it was funny because, well, Nazis were dying.

Other people couldn’t make out what the joke was, and just thought it was racist propaganda.

I was reprimanded and told I was a Nazi, and had the school tell me I was insensitive and supported racism.

A police officer came to the school, and informed me that I would be placed on a list of known racists for life and would never be taken off this list.

My teacher at the time told me that I was lucky that the Nazi hunters didn’t come and find me and kill me for what I had done.

Nowadays I can only imagine how crazy zero-tolerance is for children 10-15 years younger than myself.

Fat people all look the same and fat boys are less mobile and less of a hassle to others.

I used to draw huge fleets of planes, ships and tanks and wage huge battles between both sides and draw guns firing off ammo and shit. I think if you did that now the school teacher/psychologist would think you were mentally disturbed and take you into care or put on you medication. Strange times we live in now. It was all just normal boy stuff really.
