I was a junior in 2001. Had an elective history class that a lot of honors students, myself included, were in. This particular class was called "Holocaust", and it was basically German history 1930-1945.

That teacher was very easy to take off track. One day, late October, we got to talking about the PATRIOT act. I remember being totally in awe of how many people, my peers, were in favor of it, and didn't see it as a bad idea.
