That'll Teach You Little Scamps

Okay, we can agree that when a couple of 14-year-old boys sat on classmates' faces with their bare butts, it was pretty awful and humiliating and disgusting. But the courts are ruling that what they did was so heinous that they'll have to register as sex offenders for life. Was that a sex crime or just kids being stupid? Is lifelong registration of every move or job change appropriate under the circumstances? How about that they'll be unable to live within certain distances from schools and playgrounds? Isn't this a little extreme? (Newark Star-Ledger)
