Going to far? You decide

Sorry, but I LOLed when it said he called the girl who fled the auditorium... on a number he got online.

I am continually shocked by the lack of privacy and discretion young people (well, and some older folx) have and what they'll post online for the entire world's consumption (including weirdos that probably are satisfying themselves to all kinds of peoples' pictures and life's news). I fear the bar they have for what is appropriate to share online and what isn't is so low they are going to be caught completely unprepared when they grow up into their adult lives.

I don't think he should have called a girl "slutty", but it sounds like what he said at least resonated.

I don't think the ends justify the means here. He could have easily used similar pages from people WHO DON'T GO TO THE SCHOOL. But these kids were humiliated in front of their peers by what he said. They haven't learned anything about privacy or discretion - they've learned that being a police officer makes it OK for you to degrade others under the guise of "teaching." I mean, a grown, professional man does not call someone else "slutty" when he's on his job.

I can't put it better than this.

He could have, but then you know the students would think "oh that sucks for that person, but it could never happen to me."

I laughed too. LOL

I would have loved to have been a teenager in that audience so I could laugh at the slutty girls for the rest of the school year.

I would like to say his tactics were inappropriate. But if this girl takes her page down, then maybe it will save her from being stalked, dragged into a shack, and raped. And maybe 50 other girls in the audience with just as awful facebooks/myspaces/whatever else they use.

These kids love shock value. That's why their pages look the way they do. If you dish it, be ready to take it. Better the cop than the criminal. Better the devil that you know.
