1. Cool parents

9. LMAO

From what I've read it was the parents of another kid there who there that objected to it. Whats funny is when you're talking about 16 year olds in this day and age they pretty much know the ins and outs of sex. I would say there probably were no virgins present at the time of the stripping. Sometimes parents just live in denial, which aint just a river in Egypt.

2. Throw them in the slammer and throw away the key!!

With all that gyrating nudity going on, that kid might have missed a call from a recruiter. :eyes:

3. What goes on in the minds of people in Tennessee

Uhhm, the same stupidity that goes on in the minds of some people in every state and every country on the face of the earth.

Contrary to the views of some, red states do not have a monopoly on stupidity. :-)

5. All sexual references must be publically repressed in the South...

Rape and abuse are to be committed in the privacy of the home with your own family, then quietly forgiven in church.

8. Uhhm what about that whack job in southern California

You know, the one who fathered nine or so kids with his own kids then killed them all.

Oh well, I guess SOUTHERN California is part of the south now.

11. People suck all over.

But, after living in the South for nearly 35 years, I feel I can make some observations about it. I never said it was exclusive.

4. These Kids Today!

In my day, you just hoped to get to see your Dad's old Playboy!! Yep, we didn't have no fancy internet porn and strippers. We were happy for some old issues of magazines.

6. Im sure they could have bought him a semi-auto 9mm gun

with no problem!!

7. We went bowling for my son's 16th

and he and his buddies went to starbucks for dessert for another one of the boys 16th. If they find out they were supposed to have a stripper :crazy:

[ET Awful]

12. Well, you could always make up for it now. . . get him a belated stripper

:evilgrin:

[Debi]

17. Would I need to get him two to compensate him for the delay?

[FreedomAngel82]

10. Hey now

Not all of us are that way in Tennessee. ;) What I think was stupid was going to take the pictures and get film for them. Duh! That's why now days you have a digi camera. You don't have to take the photo's to a photo shop.

13. I'm in Tennessee and I have a son

But I'm not batshit mad enough to hire a stripper for him when he turns 16.

This is just one of those nuts - they reside everywhere.

[stevedeshazer]

14. If they bought him a GUN,

There'd be no problem. :silly:

[leveymg]

15. He could have legally married her. Would that change things in TN?

Oh, that's right. Marriage is sanctified by G_d, but boobies are smut. Jeez.

[Squatch]

16. Why couldn't they just buy him some Natural Light and be done

with it?
