Q: What's The Difference Between Rmoney & His Preppy Posse And An Amish Leader & His Followers?....

[global1]

A: The Amish leader and his followers were convicted of hate crimes.

Here's the detail:

'The leader of an Amish breakaway group and his followers were convicted Thursday of hate crimes in beard- and hair-cutting attacks against members of their own faith.' Link: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/21/us/jury-convicts-amish-group-of-hate-crimes.html

On the other hand - if you are a rich kid that has parents with a lot of money - something like this is considered a prank.

'Mitt Romney was a notorious high school prankster whose antics may have verged on gay bashing, according to a blockbuster report.
Romney, while a student at an elite Michigan prep school in 1965, tormented a flamboyant fellow gay student for his dyed hair, the Washington Post reported. The future Republican presidential candidate then gathered his prep school posse and pinned the gay student, John Lauber, to the ground. Romney pulled out a pair of scissors and forcibly cut Lauber’s hair.'

Gay bashing? Hate Crime?

1. I wonder if his father was proud of this?

dickheads will be dickheads...

If one of my sons ever did this they would have a size 10 1/2
up their butts. Luckily I would never have to worry about them
doing such a thing...
good dudes .. my best friends.

My son, who will be 30 next year, served a week-long suspension from middle school many years ago for a lot less than what Mitt did to Mr. Lauber.
