Brickbat: Hairy Situation

anny Valdes’s
stepdad is barber, and he carefully cut the Miami Heat logo and
local skyline and area code into the 11-year-old’s hair in
anticipation of the boy attending his first Heat game. But when he
got to Florida’s Harns Marsh Middle School the next day officials
decided his hair was not only “distracting” but gang related. So a
counselor grabbed clippers and shaved Danny’s
head. The school claims the stepdad gave them permission to cut
the boy’s hair over the phone. The man denies that.
