This story about Fairfax is currently on the front page of the popular social news http://reddit.com/ so I think it deserves some discussion here.

*cue M.C. Hammer* can't touch this!
personally, i dont see what the problem is with couples making out even if it's in the halls. this rule as well as the current rules are absurd. it's high school and hormones are raging. parents seem to act like this is a new phenomenon when in fact it goes back decades since the opening of the schools themselves. does anyone remember the depiction of the future in the movie Demolition Man? that's where schools are going. goodbye high-fives, hello non-contact high-fives!

If this law keeps Gravis's hands off at least one middle schooler, I am for it. LOL

LOL. I went to Kilmer. Back then it was a lot less strict. Because of school shootings...schools crack down on EVERYTHING.
Keeping Gravis away from young boys is a goal all of us including Fairfax COunty Police need to address.
