"and maybe a quick hug"

Oh come the fuck on!... no wonder everyone sees you guys as puritans... That shit just wouldn't stand here. I mean our schools don't "allow" making out in the halls or anything, but they realize that kids do have crushes, and the DO have girlfriends/boyfriends (regardless of sexual orientation). Stopping a guy from hugging his g/f doesn't make the school any safer, it makes the students more re-presses and angry.

Fucking unbelievable...
