Graduating Senior Arrested, Handcuffed at Commencement for Flipping the Bird
Principal: "We Really Wanted a Dignified Ceremony"

It's not uncommon for high school seniors to try to make themselves stand out from the crowd during graduation ceremonies, maybe with something benign like writing "Hi Mom" on their robes or doing a funny dance on the walk across stage. But one small-town Alabama student immortalized the moment and got more than he bargained for en route to receiving his diploma ?- a trip to jail.
In the short walk across stage, Joseph Bryan Shore, 18, elicited more than boos when he allegedly cursed out his family and flipped the bird to the crowd, according to authorities. Immediately after the ceremony, two police officers took him into custody and charged him with disorderly conduct.
Arab, Ala. assistant police chief Jeff Bailey said he had never seen anything like it before.
"This is a small town, a little quiet place," Bailey said. "He basically disrupted the whole graduation with his hollering and cursing."

In the picture, take a look at the sign around the kid's neck.
How tall is he?
No peekin' now.
I'm thinking (with what?) buy the ticket, take the ride, I mean, they graduate him, they give him the cap & gown, if it only serves to demonstrate the danger of any kind of ceremonious behavior I can dig it.
I hope they beat the **** out of him on behalf of his parents.
What a douchebag.
