By David Harsanyi — September 18, 2015
Earlier this month, a 13-year-old boy in Maryland faced an assault charge after authorities said he had kissed a 14-year-old classmate on a dare at school. He’s being charged with second-degree assault as a juvenile. He has not, as yet, been invited to the White House.
In December 2013, a 6-year-old boy in Colorado was suspended from school for kissing a girl on the hand. “It was during class,” Hunter Yelton explained. “We were doing reading group, and I leaned over and kissed her on the hand. That’s what happened.” No White House invitation.
In March 2014, a high-school student in upstate New York named Shane Kinney was suspended for wearing a National Rifle Association T-shirt emblazoned with the NRA logo and the words “2nd Amendment Shall Not Be Infringed” across the back.
In August 2014, a young girl was suspended after breaking a class rule of saying “bless you” after a classmate sneezed. “She said that we’re not going to have godly speaking in her class, and that’s when I said we have a constitutional right,” explained the student.
In June 2014, an 8-year-old named Asher Palmer was expelled from his special-needs Manhattan school for threatening classmates with a toy “gun” that he had assembled out of rolled-up white paper.
