The whole "ask famous person to prom" is so cliche, played out & unoriginal (par for the course for most of todays sheep youth) but that said, theres no reason for the guy to get a suspension for it.

They specifically told him not to do it and he still did. The suspension is completely fair IMO.

I think a punishment for that is fine....but a suspension? Seems a bit steep. As said, what he did is a lame, chiche, overdone, non original, "Look at me" act as most of societal youth are all about these days, but on the scale of crimes, this one was small. 

 

Give him detention for a few weeks and be done with it.

No, you're just being a sheep.


Back in TMD's day (143 years ago apparently), everybody was original to the core and not one person did, said, wore or looked like any other. It was a society of snowflakes.

If you're referring to the 80's, I agree with him on that.. I grew up in the 80's as well.. Great time to be alive..

I find the "look at me" comment ridiculously ironic.

Yup, the 80's were pretty awesome.....no pun intended.

In School Suspension makes sense to me.  He disobeyed a teacher.  It's not like he was expelled (which we recently had a student around here expelled because he did something he was told not to, and the principal ended up having to resign over the decision)

I'm sure the 80's were great.  The clothes.  The celebrities.  Garfield.  You can't ask for much more than that.  Too bad Garfield died in office though.


I was wrong about Trent Baalke.

They have no standing to make that request. So, it is actually not completely fair.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

A punishment is NOT fine. He broke no law. He broke no code of conduct. He disobeyed a request that a school official had NO right to make. The school officials are the ones who should be suspended.

Your post - based on your past posts - is so cliche & unoriginal (par for the course for the sheep resident message board geezer) that there is no reason for anyone to be subjected to it.

Did you watch the video?

 

If he had asked her while she was doing a meet and greet or something, as long as it wasn't disrespectful I'd agree.

 

As it is, he disrupted a whole school talk during a Q&A about something serious. Imagine if that had been a politician or serious business woman, he would have got way worse.
