As some of you might know, my school has just recently passed something stating we can't wear shirts with words on them, shorts that go past our knees, and sandles. In my opinion, I don't like it. I think it's disrupting our freedom of speech and the right to express yourself.

As some of you also might know, I'm going to do something about this at my school. Shouldn't be too hard. I've looked up the Bill of Rights, stuff from The Bible, and the amendments.

I'd like your views on this, and please try to keep it clean. I'd also like to read your views about uniforms, or clothing restricting at your school, and why you think it's not right to do it.

Well, if kids could be more mature, and choose shirts which are not inappropiate, then a restriction would not be necessary. But, since that's not going to happen anytime soon, a restriction is beneficial.

Sure, I like being able to express myself, but too many kids abuse that priveledge. So, I am all for the ban.

That's just the thing, from what I saw no one has abused that priveledge. There's been a rule stating if something is inappropiate, it will be removed and replaced by something more appropiate. I thought that rule was good enough.

First off, just because you didn't see it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Second, changing 10 people's shirts everyday will accomplish nothing, since they'll never learn a lesson. And suspending them from school (since they really want to be there, yeah right Whatever_anim.gif) won't teach them either. So, this is the last realistic option.

I realize what you're understanding, and I know that. But in my school, everyone is a "wigger", so they usually only wear something involving Jynco (Which I found out was an acronym, lol). Then again, I might have missed something. This isn't a private school, this isn't a school with alot of money, there's not many people in our school either, maybe like a couple hundred. So why such drastic measures for such a small little country school with no money? Eh, this just makes no sense.

ok. so, in your school its casual clothes, just with some restrictions:

1. we can't wear shirts with words on them
2. shorts that go past our knees
3. sandles.

For starters, who wears sandles to school? eek7.gif theres number 3 out of the way bluetongue.gif

Shorts that go past the knees.. well... thats a stupid rule... *sings song* "who likes short shorts, you like short shorts" biglaugh.gif

As for shirts with words on them.... well, as long as its nothing offensive or rude... Thats what i think anywayz..

Let me just point out that at my school, we have a uniform.. sad.gif

You guys should consider yourself lucky, for at least that..

Sandels at school.... loopy.gif bluetongue.gif

Or you could live in Denmark where we can wear whatever we want. I really see no reason whatsoever to have dress codes or the like. Especially uniforms disgusts me, to me it's like trying to creating robots, to mainstream every one so we will all look alike, think alike and whatnot. I want to dress however I want.

Honestly, I hate brand name crap. Anyone who cares if the words Abercrombie or Volcom, or what ever are on your shirts, they should seriously rethink their value system (metric ownz joo). Brand names are dumb.

As for sandals, I really dont wanna see anyone's disgusting toes. bluetongue.gif

Shorts that go past your knees, eh? If you get in trouble, just call them what I call them: pants.

Alot of people wear sandles, including women. There's nothing offensive about them. If you don't like their toes, they can wear toe socks or something. Short shorts are good biglaugh.gif Well, not when worn by men. And if a shirt is offensive or rude, they usually just make them take it off and replace it with a school shirt.

People that wear brand name shirts with the brand name on them are usuallly just preps. I stated my opinion on sandles already. And I do the same thing, that or high water pants bluetongue.gif "We're waiting for a flood to come in."
