"Let me sleep on it, baby, baby let me sleep on it..."
I swore I'd lover 'til the end of time
[Bum...bum...bum...bum...]
And now I'm prayin' for the end of time...
I graduated from HS in 2004. While you all ponder my thoughts, keep this in mind...
"but sexual activity in schools happens more than adults think"
Ain't that the truth--this doesn't surprise me in the least. Within my class,I can think of numerous instances of "who did who" conversations in the halls, and only a couple of where they were actually stupid enough to even consider doing it in the school (though AFAIK, they didn't do it in actuality).
Not to mention that I knew several young women in my class (many near the academic and social pinnacles of said class) who actively dated college students, most of these couples met when both were in HS, and took them to Homecoming, Sadie's, Prom, etc. ad nauseam. So, the relationship doesn't surprise me either.
It's made worse by a 19 year old sneaking into school. I had a few 19 year olds in my HS class, most being held back at kindergarten due to the asinine cutoffs in my school district or a result of profound learning difficulties.
So, it's possible he's a student at the high school. But not likely.
More likely though, I think that here's a local college student--most likely from a local community, junior, or vocational college. He dates a girl (now 17) from his high school. It's possible they went out while he was in HS. Just that they were dumb enough to go that far.
What surprises me, though, is the fact that other students watched them do the dirty deed in a semi-public place. With others cheering them on, and presumably "preserving" the scene on their camera phones. Now THAT's just sick and twisted beyond any means.
Something like THAT deserves some sort of severe action--as the state of our society and the MSM shows, it's clearly not just these two dummies that need to get the hint...
In my state, it generally is an unwritten rule--prosecutable, but often not. While I'm not a lawyer, I've seen news stories on both sides--mainly involving whether the district attorney decides to prosecute.
