Strange story on the news.

Post by Reginald de Curry »

A middle school principal was arrested for dealing meth, at his office, in the school building, sans clothing.

It doesn't get much weirder.
Pinky! Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I think so, Brain, but didn't we give up ritual murder for Lent?

I watched the video. I'm not entirely sure that people should be as shocked as reported. Granted, it was his office and not his home, and that is bad.

But dealing drugs is the offense here. Watching porn is not worse than dealing, so I don't think the emphasis should be put on that. By the same token, I reject the neighbour's opinion on the man. I don't see anything wrong in a gay person educating children if he keeps his homossexuality in private. And, to my knowledge, he was alone in his office, thus in private.

I don't know, I find the popular reaction and news coverage more disturbing than the offense itself...

As for weird... don't know, guess there's been worse.
