Blue Man and Assistant Principal get in trouble
Over in Chicago an actor in the Blue Man Group and an assistant principal have gotten themselves into a bit of trouble with the law. It seems the pair was doing it on a park bench near the lake. So they were arrested and charged with public indecency.

I'd think it'd be a bit cold to be doing that outside. They couldn't wait to get back to a room of some sort before doing this? I hope the Blue Man actor wasn't in "uniform" at the time. Yikes.

1. Here's a prediction:
That's the end of the admin's career.

A school administrator engaging in public sex would probably do it. Public GAY sex seals the coffin.

A "bit of trouble" for the actor. A LOT of trouble for the other guy.

2. in addition
the fact that the guy he was doing it with was BLUE really drives that final nail. Now, if it was RED public gay sex, like Larry Craig in an airport men's room, it's all fine and dandy. Last I checked, 'ol Larry still has his job. :silly:

5. He might not be that sort of blue man after all
The Blue Man Group is saying they never heard of the guy.

7. It was cold enough outside for them both to be blue.
A blue job, so to speak.

8. Um almost...
From the link:
Police had said -- and multiple news agencies reported -- that Stephens was an actor with the Blue Man Group. However, a spokesman for the group said Tuesday the man has never been associated with the troupe.

9. This does not happen to straight couples
And it is not funny. These people can lose their jobs and end up on the sex offender list. When straight people who are consenting adults get caught having sex in public they rarely get arrested or even stopped for it.

This is just another form of discrimination against gay people (primarily gay men).

11. Do straight couples get caught having sex in public as much as gay couples?
:shrug:

12. Probably not
But how would you know since they're usually given a pass when caught, authorities turn a blind eye or tell them to move along. My point was that it's not a big deal and their lives aren't ruined for it. I think it's a shame these two had to have their names plastered all over the internet.

13. How do you know that straight couples are usually not arrested for this?
Do you have any statistics to back this up?
