I still don't think the spirit of the laws of obscenity were intended to arrest 11,12 & 13 year olds participating in consenual acts. Watching the door so others can get their freak on - you stoopid but not much else.
I'm not trying to make light of this - I just don't want these kids labeled as juvies and thus no expectations are held for them. Middle school is where many kids "drop out". Arresting them is just reactionary and over the top to me and does nothing to explain to the children or their classmates why they shouldn't have done what they did. The "just say no" approach didn't work when I was a kid and it clearly isn't working for this next over exposed generation.
