So now we have the date police? For those of you who said the rules are the rules, or something to that effect, you fully deserve (and apparently want) the police state this country is degenerating into.
Doesn't anyone ever question anymore where the governing body in question gets the authority for stuff like this? I'd be willing to bet dollars to dog turds the school doesn't have a written rule against a student bringing a porn star to a prom.
The people of this country now expect and accept that someone has the right to tell them what to do or not do 24/7/365 in the "land of the free and the home of the brave" without even bothering to wonder, much less ask if they have the right to do so.
Simply pathetic. Doesn't anybody have the balls anymore to just say NO?

Mike Stone's senior prom at Tartan High School was shaping up to be a real drag when the two dozen girls he asked at school turned him down, so instead of sulking about it or going stag, the 18-year-old Minnasotan took to Twitter. According to ANC News, Stone asked somewhere around 600 porn stars to prom through the social media site, promising dinner, a hotel, and a massage, and finally got a yes from 19-year-old adult film actress Megan Piper.
Unfortunately for them, the school caught wind of it and banned Piper from attending. Now Stone and Piper are planning their own "alternative" party, and inviting the rest of the school to attend that instead. Stone said, "I didn’t expect this to get blown up. It’s great. Everyone at my school is supporting me." Even Stone's mom is on his side, and told ABC News, "I was a little upset at first ... But I support him and I don’t understand what her profession has to do with anything." Do you think Mike Stone is entitled to bring a porn star as his date to prom?

I wish I could have gone to my senior prom...
with a porn star*^^
Give schools the opportunity to prove they are progressive and they will disappoint you pretty often.
This is fail. The one where the two girls couldn't go as dates was fail. The one where the school kicked a guy out for watching Glee was fail. Schools need to get a grip.
While I don't condone and will never endorse her occupation, I certainly do not see any
valid reason to bar the student from bringing her to the prom as long as both of them
present and conduct themselves in a prudent manner while at the event. After all, the poor
fellow was rejected away by all the girls at his school.
You don't know WTF is going on at all, do you? I always wondered what kind of people besides the rich would ever vote republican. Now I know.

About your other paragraph: I feel so sorry for people who can't make a comment without swearing or talking about politics so out of context :D
I think the prom needs to be special for all the students.
If it ends up being The Piper Show" the whole reason for the prom has been ruined.
Many parents that still look at their teens as "children" would also be robbed of seeing their baby go to a "coming of age event".
On the flip side I would have preferred Piper to the fugly cold girl I went with.
I think the school should really be supporting this kid here - instead of feeling beaten down by peer rejection, he put himself out there and ended up doing something that's really going to make him a social LEGEND if he is allowed to follow through with it.
This is a kid who went from being a complete reject to someone who is saying "Everyone at my school is supporting me."
Yeah - let's punish him for that.
And rightly so!
Pornhub is paying for an alternate prom, her plane fare, a limo. and a hotel room. HAHAHA!
I read on a news site that he's now the high school hero because he got a porn site to throw a REAL prom!
I bet ALL the kids go to the alternate prom and the media shows the principle sitting in an empty dance hall drinking punch with the old lady teachers!
GOD The Future is cool!

Geez, let the kid live a little.
Porn stars are part of the post high school world.....at least that's how I see it....
See, that's the question.
It worked out okay too, until the repiglicans turned it into an anti-sex police state.
