17-year-old Asante Cotman was Suspended for wearing High Heels to School

This is another case of fashion hitting a bump with school rules. In Charles City County, Va, Asante was suspended for wear high heels to school.

The school claims he was distracting other students. Please, high heels is nothing compared to other things kids wear.

Anywho, here's a clip. Take a bit to load up

And on an unrelated note the source page has an ad for the Susan G Komen High Heel Dash.

Seriously, good for him for standing up on this.
