Thousands of schools in the U.S. are still using hard-earned money to make students' lives miserable. Thousands of schools are still forcing school uniforms apon kids.
There is a part of the Constitution that lists many rights that every American has. Implied among these is the freedom to wear whatever the heck we want. I'm not saying that it's O.K. to walk around with offensive writings on your chest, but there is a huge space between banning hate messages on apparel and forcing evey student to buy ugly and uncomfortable clothes that must be worn every day. But sadly, not every school knows about that space.
I can think of many senarios where uniforms could be extremely inconvenient. For example, If a kid who lives a distance from his or her school wants to go skiing at a local hill 30 minutes after the bell, that kid will either have to deal with the discomfort of a botton-down shirt pressing against their chest, or will have to go mug some hobo and steal his rag-clothes, which, sadly, will probably work better for snow sports.
So, if you want to go T.P. the houses of those school board members who still enforce this rediculous dress-code, I could use your help!
This is a joke. seriously.
If you are going to cite a document like the Constituion, you should at the very least quote the section that you are referring to.
