EVERETT, Wash. -- The Everett School District has suspended cheerleaders they believe were conducting initiation rituals in violation the district's athletic code. Sources say some of the older cheerleaders on the Jackson High School squad made the new members wear diapers, then shot them with squirt guns and hit them with hot dogs. A mother of an accused cheerleader said the alleged hazing happened inside her home in Bothell. The school district suspended several cheerleaders, saying they violated the athletic code of conduct which prohibits hazing.
You have to watch the video to get the full impact of this story, and to meet the star of this news broadcast, Sebastin Mejia, a young man with his head on straight. Witness his beautifully simple logic, founded in common sense:
"I just heard they got hit by sausages (smirking)...I thought it was pretty harmless, I mean no one has died from getting hit in the face with a sausage...So I thought the punishment didn't fit the crime."
Amen Sebastin, with that line of thinking you'll always have an open door here at the Tab, assuming blogging for free on as established, yet tiny blog is your sort of thing.
