Really, how often do you get a headline like that?

I know it was a little extreme, but…it was still just a high school prank. Hardly worth getting your ass tasered over. I guess I’m getting overly tolerant in my old age, but I think it’s funny. And this:
just had me rolling. Because about the only “sexual gesture” I could think of was the kid grabbing himself. How can anyone consider this threatening?
The article mentions that the guy had long hair, a full beard, and was not recognized as a student. In addition, he was running towards students who were screaming and were huddled in a corner away from the guy. For all the cops knew, this was some insane adult homeless dude who was out to do some harm. It is kind of a funny prank, but I don’t believe he factored in the “cops might not recognize me as a student and might Taser my oil covered ass” angle.
I bet the kid flipped the bird at the administrator. That’s certainly the first thing that comes to my mind when I hear “sexual gesture”.
I used to know a guy (Democrat) who ran naked through a Republican victory party on the night Reagan was elected to his second term. No one tasered him though–I think they just figured he was a Republican who had had a few too many visits to the punch bowl.
Did the grease contain trans-fats? In a cafeteria, that’s grounds for tasering
Naked Greased-Up Deaf Guy.
You sure this didn’t happen in Quahog?
I pictured the “I got yer taser right here!” motion. Man…I hope that isn’t right where he got it!
I wonder if this guy is going to be put on the sex offender registry.
It wouldn’t surprise me. He’s 18, and he’s being charged with “inducing panic,” so I’m sure a few parents will probably want to sue for the pain and suffering their poor virgin daughters suffered from seeing a man’s naughty bits.
Damn it, you beat me to it!
See, I figured it was a pelvic thrust or two. So much for reliable journalism, huh? Inquiring minds want to know!
