Default kids get detention for hugging other kids

Wow - this seems to be going on all over the place.

I just heard this story on Fox, about some teenage girl in Illinois
somewhere, who got two days of detention for hugging a couple of
her friends on campus.

So I checked into this thing - and lo and behold, look what I found -

This is going on all over the place!

Vrginia, Massachusetts, .... it's like, what the f.... ????

The "logic" around this thing, seems to involve "public displays of affection".

So, I guess a hug, is a "public display of affection". I mean, a "little one", right? Not like a french kiss or anything....

But so, it seems the PC crowd, is trying to teach kids "not to do this in public", at a very young age.

What do you think?
