What the fuck is wrong with this country, part 67.

Ten years in jail and a lifetime on the sex offender's list because one kid butt-slapped another in seventh grade. Look, why don't we just admit that we want our kids to stay in heremetically sealed boxes until they're eighteen, at which point we decant them into the system and expect them to figure out all the rules on their own?

This was all over the local news when it happened ( a couple of months back). But apparently there was more going on than just the butt slaps. Since it was a while back I don't recall the details.

It was still iffy, but as I recall it wasn't as totally out of line as the first reports made it seem.
