I think it was too far. I understand their logic in that it was technically vandalism and that calling the police was probably a scare tactic. However, did the punishment really fit the crime? In school if you were caught drawing on the desk you would be yelled at by the teacher and ordered to clean it. If not, it was usually a detention of some sort, whether it was during lunch or after school. This girl was 12, and might of not known it was considered vandalism or that she could of be jailed for it. But, I do think it's a case where the punishment did not fit the crime. If it was someone older, such as a senior who was eighteen, then maybe.

O.O wow...... that's unbelievable o.o I'm pretty sure that people are going to rise up against that, a definitely ._. If it was in my school, they'd just give us a detention or maybe more work or we have to help clean the desks or help the janitor or something, the most they'd do would we to suspend someone if they did a super-huge drawing in the front of the school or something. Like, if they wrote swear-words in huge letters on all the doors and school signs and stuff.

EDIT: I'm surprised there are actually people that voted "No" in that poll up there >.> they were either joking, clicked the wrong one, or one of the people that decided on a punishment near that level in the first place.
