Those piercings are stupid.
That school and it's rules are stupid.
If your distracted at school by some piercings in another students face. You're stupid.
This whole thing is stupid. I don't like either side in that story. It's only a big deal because both sides decided to make a big deal about it. There is nothing unusual about those piercings anymore. I don't like them. But I don't care if anyone else has them, they pose no threat or danger. Live and let live.
