Too funny

From email:

From: Chris French

The scene is a grade-school Government class,
ca. now.

The teacher says, "The place we live in is a
democratic one -- with free speech, elections,
and the Rule of Law."

He pauses, and takes on his Serious Voice. "But
not all places are like ours. In some places,
there is a complete *lack* of Free Speech, there
is Punishment without Trial, and they have
ruthless leaders who are not popularly elected.
Does anyone know what such a place is called?"

Thirty voices respond as one: "*SCHOOL*!"
