Pointing fingers at the other kids might not be the way to go in a
small town. Sometimes the rules don't mean anything until a teacher
needs them to single a kid out. Seen it happen too many times. But if
she's up for the fight go for it.
The truth is what happens in school rarely happens in adult
rudges are held.

The ACLU cannot be selective on whose rights to defend. If [insert

your rights are not either. By saying only certain groups rights are

I'm actually with Jerry on this. With the exception of (a managable
number of ) ear piercings...pretty much any other piercing doesn't do
it for me.

with their body. If it doesn't affect the cost of my beer, I couldn't

But it is important that if there is a rule on the books, it is getting
