If we keep isolating kids from shitty situations they'll never learn how to deal with them. Getting rid of a homecoming court isn't going to stop kids from being shitty kids and doing things like you talked about in your OP.
I liken it to the recent bullying issues. Some of it is things we've dealt with for years. Some of it is newer issues because of the emergence of technology such as Facebook. Some of the things that have been created to address it have been very good, especially when it comes to addressing bullying via social media. But some of it has also created issues, especially among children and parents who are unable to distinguish between harmless teasing between kids and full on bullying.

Generally agree. The PC pussification of America continues. Used to be we dealt with this shite at 3PM on the playground. I gave and I got on that space, but shite got dealt with.
Hell, with my own grandkids I note that their schools dont even have swing sets any more because the schools are scared the wittle things might get hurt. (and probably sue.)
What a master race of sandy vaginas this country is turning into.
