Boy arrested for passing gas

Story here. I never understood the trouble kids (boys) got into for passing gas. It isn't like one has a great deal of control over it and it's pretty easy to tell if he is doing it to cut up (ie, "artificial farts") or actually just got taken by surprise. But even in the "good ol' days", the most some crazed, wild-eyed farting boy had done to him was getting told to stand in the corner or maybe, if it's a real bad case of flatulence, to go see the principal (or maybe the nurse if it was accompanied by such crimes as barfing or coughing). Nowadays it seems, it warrants arrest.

War on boys? No. Feminized classrooms? No, no way. It's an illusion, just propaganda being bandied about by crazed MRAs and other such male chauvinist sexist bigot types. Now that that is all straightened out, you may go back to sleep and let the Mommy State take care of everything for you... provided you pony up.

Excerpt:

'NOVEMBER 21--A 12-year-old Florida student was arrested earlier this month after he "deliberately passed gas to disrupt the class," according to police. The child, who was also accused of shutting off the computers of classmates at Stuart's Spectrum Jr./Sr. High School, was busted November 4 for disruption of a school function. A Martin County Sheriff's Office report, a copy of which you'll find below, notes that the 4' 11" offender admitted that he "continually disrupted his classroom environment by breaking wind and shutting off several computers**."'

** Even shutting off computers warrants no more than a trip to the principal's office. Sheesh!
