Doesnt make any logical sense.



And if public schools are a part of the government shouldn't it be illegal for them to block things (against 1st amendment?)

Because it means that you cannot search for the word. Although it doesn't prevent you from using weapon, assault or any other of the myriad of violent words out there.



And schools, even public ones, do have the right to block information, if they believe that the actions of a group will endanger another group.



Additionally, there are so many other places students can access a computer off school grounds that they are not restricted from. And students can certainly use real books and magazine to find the info they want.
