Girl-on-Girl Kiss Brings Suspension, Wood





Guilty of Illegal Kissing

Excerpt:

Inspired by a high school assignment, Stephanie Haaser leaped onto a cafeteria table, shouted "End homophobia now!" and kissed classmate Katherine Pecore.

Haaser said she was making a statement on behalf of gay and lesbian students because she was bothered by the verbal and physical harassment they face.

Their principal said he respected what the heterosexual students were trying to do, but they needed to learn more appropriate ways to make a point. Haaser and Pecore were suspended for two days.

"It's highly inappropriate to stand on a table in the cafeteria and make out, whether the kiss was heterosexual or homosexual," said River Hill High School principal Scott Pfeifer. "I don't think there's a school in the country where parents would consider that appropriate behavior."

I think one would probably need to see a video of the kiss to determine if an infraction did occur, and it's possible multiple viewings would be needed, due to the sensitive nature of the kiss and the potential harm done to the other students who witnessed this outrage in their tender years.

Besides, who'd want to see two hotties kissing?

Instead, students should be watching pictures of Iraqi war victims on FOX News.
