The Affection Police

I wrote about some childhood memories the other day, and in them I had a line about hitting on girls as a teenager. I said that you'd get arrested today for hitting on chicks, instead of just being told off by the girl and going home with your tail between your legs. Exaggeration?

Nah. Everything is regulated these days. Check out this bonehead: his name is Randy Blakely, and he's the Vice Principal of a grammar school in the US. He saw a girl hugging her friends good-bye after school, so he gave her two detentions for it. He defends the penalty by claiming that he warned the girl about such bad behavior once before, when she hugged a friend at a football game.

Way to go, big shot. As anyone who attended school knows, all girls ever do is hug each other. Maybe you should spend less time checking out the chicks hugging each other, Randy, and more time worrying about their education.

Catch the story here.
