I ran for Student Body President of Cypress High School in wonderful Orange County, CA in 1980. This was after our school library hours were cut because of Prop. 13. So I campaigned on the issue of using more student money for the library and the school and less for the football and other sports teams. To make a long story short, there was a riot at a speaking rally when members of the football team threw things at the stage, and punched one of my staffers. I had the mic so I used it to call these idiots what they were, "a bunch of fucking hypocrites." I was suspended for three days. Members of the football team that physically assaulted one of my friends were let off with a warning. I am not surprised the way the school acted, and I do think our youngster is more clued in to the way things really are than most. GOOD JOB KID!
