The Kids Are Alright
Today's StarTribune has a story on a group of troubled teens at a Minnesota high school and how they came to make an excellent, unflinching film looking at the Iraq war from the soldier's perspective. Meanwhile, in the opinion pages, we find a commentary by a guy who wails that Hunter S. Thompson won't have anyone to follow his path. Wrong, dude. Hunter, who himself was a juvenile delinquent who had a few key teachers helping him, would have approved of these youngsters. The kids -- these kids, at any rate -- are alright.
