- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -3/+139Ugh, these 13 year old girls were obviously terrorists.
- jmjinks, on 02/05/2008, -1/+126On a related note, a couple of seven year olds have been charged with slander for referring to their teacher as a "poopy face".
- oreonblade, on 02/05/2008, -2/+122It is a heinous crime. If a fry were to hit my face, the oil would make my skin all pimply & gross and then my life would be, like, totally over.
- nepawoods, on 02/05/2008, -1/+88"hurling missiles"??? ... and no one charged for serving missiles to students for lunch?
- pintomp3, on 02/05/2008, -1/+74they hate us because of our freedom (fries).
- Error601, on 02/05/2008, -0/+51If they are the same school fries we had, it's safer to throw them than eat them.
- Calcularius, on 02/05/2008, -15/+59Good. I'm tired of children acting like complete asses.
- Slugs, on 02/05/2008, -1/+43French fries are a gateway projectile. Before you know it she will be tossing hand grenades and launching missiles at anyone that happens to be in her path of destruction.
- allaboutdatiki, on 02/05/2008, -3/+40was ketchup involved?
- crushtheenemy, on 02/05/2008, -1/+37good. i'm tired of children acting like children.
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -1/+34They would be getting the death penalty if it were tator tots.
- stewartallyn, on 02/05/2008, -3/+34I guess they didn't film Animal House at that school.
- Groovemaster, on 02/05/2008, -0/+31I'm glad they were just hurling missiles. Apparently they also had concealed WMDs (cheeseburgers).
- iceman0113, on 02/05/2008, -7/+36FTA: "Ibarra says the citations might have been a little over the top, given that the girls were only throwing french fries. "
Well, no *****. $60 for throwing fries? Are you serious? - m8ymerc1, on 02/05/2008, -6/+34Police Chief Bob Deutsch "BAG"
- skyshock1, on 02/05/2008, -2/+24Lunch ladies should be charged with selling WMDs.
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -3/+25Did they get tazed?
- jetblackz4, on 02/05/2008, -1/+22Why are the police involved in a school issue that should be resolved with a detention?
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -4/+24You missed the rest of the quote from the mom:
"But Ibarra says the girls had been warned and decided to push it anyway. She says getting the $60 citation has been a good lesson for her daughter." - scooterbaga, on 02/05/2008, -3/+22Don't worry, you're the clever one.
- glucoseboy, on 02/05/2008, -1/+18So, the school administrators couldn't figure out a way to stop the girls from throwing french fries at lunch so they brought in the police? What, detention or forcing their parents to come to school to talk to administrators about discipline and respect for rules and authority couldn't work? I don't know who's worse, the administrators who couldn't do their job of maintaining discipline at the school or the Laramie Police Department who agreed to participate in this total waste of time.
- DarkItIs, on 02/05/2008, -11/+28I'd be pissed if they did this to my kid. It's one thing to commit a crime, it's another to throw french fries. Should the school have punished them? Probably, but getting the police involved is just overkill. I'm tired of over aggressive police who think they're saving society.
- HellifIno, on 02/05/2008, -4/+18As her daughter has no income currently, the daughter will obviously have to become a 'ho to pay off her debt to society. And you KNOW her pimp ain't gonna let her go that easy, once she's proven to be "cashworthy"...
- funkymonkey01, on 02/05/2008, -4/+17should have locked them up
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -1/+14They were clearly French Fries of Mass Destruction.
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -1/+12I can haz WMDz?
- NinjaPirateDude, on 02/05/2008, -7/+18in other news, 15 year old gets arrested for not wanting "fries with that".
- locriology, on 02/05/2008, -3/+14I agree. The girls sound like brats from the article. There's a good chance they got what they deserved.
- akatherder, on 02/05/2008, -0/+11Weapons of Minimal Destruction. But destruction nonetheless!
- ausfahrt, on 02/05/2008, -0/+10Freedom Fries of Mass Destruction* ... Now no one is safe. Our own freedom is after us.
- mnemy, on 02/05/2008, -0/+10What ever happened to phoning parents and letting them take care of punishing their children. The world has lost its common sense.
- rentmitchum, on 02/05/2008, -2/+12Ketchup guided missiles.
- bjs3171, on 02/05/2008, -1/+10first the teacher, next the president. and calling the president "poopy face" is a clear act of terrorism and dissent.
- Mejogid, on 02/05/2008, -0/+9I love how they go through all that instead of "Don't throw stuff at stuff in public"...
- Jeeverz, on 02/05/2008, -2/+10They are called FREEDOM FRIES !
- Aaronraw, on 02/05/2008, -0/+8I'm all for citing teenagers for being retarded, but "missiles"?
- g30ph, on 02/05/2008, -0/+8Miami-Dade, where I live, has police specifically for the schools. Their cars say school police. A lot of crime takes place inside and around schools. It's usually drug related, not french fries.
- Rockmaninoff, on 02/05/2008, -2/+10No, and there sure wasn't any relish.
- InferiorWang, on 02/05/2008, -1/+8Don't stone me bro.
- ubuwalker31, on 02/05/2008, -1/+8Considering that the girls could have been charged with a much more serious charge of assault and/or battery under state law, they should count themselves lucky. Although, being charged with "Throwing Stones" seems pretty bad though. Here is the relevant ordinance that I dug up, which is a classic example of legalese at its finest:
Chapter 9.12 OFFENSES AGAINST PUBLIC DECENCY
9.12.240 Throwing stones.
No person shall, within the city, throw, hurl, thrust or in any manner propel any stone, stick or any missile, article or thing of any kind, character or description, at, upon, or toward any house, church, public or private building or at, upon, toward or against any telegraph or telephone post, pole, wire, machinery, fixture or appliance or at, upon, toward or against any electric lamp, light, wire, fixture, apparatus, machinery or appliances or at, upon, toward or against any person or any domestic animal or any vehicle, wagon or means of conveyance. - keithc01, on 02/05/2008, -2/+9Police departments in suburban areas have become a problem. This is a small incident, but indicates the larger problem. They NEED the money from citations. It doesn't seem like a big deal until your kid continuously gets cited $300 for "curfew violation" while walking home like he/she is supposed to. Or you decide to be responsible enough to walk home drunk rather than drive and get a $400 public drunkenness citation. So, I'm not supposed to drive OR walk now? Police should be our friends. They should pick up kids and drunkerds and get them home safely, rather than creating enemies throughout the community.
PS If you can't catch the ***** breaking into cars on my street, don't you dare ticket me for parking in my own driveway and unavoidably blocking the sidewalk. PIG *****! Ok, I'm done. - georgemason01, on 02/05/2008, -1/+7http://www.kutv.com/media/news/6/d/a/6dafdef0-a8c5 ...
Before the image loaded I was expecting a photo of the girls or the school. But no, a CBS affiliate makes a custom image for the story with "FRY FIGHT" in big letters. I found that amusing. - akumany, on 02/05/2008, -2/+8hey at least they didnt get tasered
- web2pointYo, on 02/05/2008, -1/+7That sounds about right.
- inactive, on 02/05/2008, -6/+12America desperately needs corporal punishment.
- socialpyramid, on 02/05/2008, -2/+8Thanks for keeping us safe there...
- whoamarcos, on 02/05/2008, -1/+7This is news?
- minoss, on 02/05/2008, -7/+13Oh no, some dumb kids got a mediocre fine for throwing food multiple times during lunch. Obviously a huge injustice.
- GreySpec, on 02/05/2008, -0/+6Because highschools have hired police to take over civil disobedience issues lately
- scoottie, on 02/05/2008, -1/+6Good
