You take a picture of a kid that you don’t know. He’s being a jerk. Who hasn’t? Who’s kid hasn’t? Who’s kid won’t? Does it make him a bad kid. Does he know what it really means? Who knows.

Now a high profile blogger links to the picture and this minor child in a moment of bad judgment is being exposed to a much wider audience. No one else has a problem with the ethics here?

Second, if he is a grade schooler, he has NO FREAKIN’ CLUE what that gesture means. It is a clear sign that his parents have let the child watch too much Skin-a-max regardless of his age.

Third, the commenters need to unclench. The bus was where kids in my area got a whole other kind of education. If he didn’t learn it on cable tv he learned on the bus. Trust me.

Lastly, it is disturbing that he made the gesture AFTER the camera came out, but why was the person in the car taking a pic of a random kid making faces? Was he hurting her feelings??? Get over yourself.
