It's funny you should mention school uniforms, as there is a debate about their implementation in my area. I have read the two main arguments against them:

1. They will cost too much. Bull! A pair of properly-sized khakis and a white button-up shirt will cost no more than the crap parents normally send their kids to school in.

2. It deprives kids of expressing their individuality. Bull, again! They are supposed to be there to learn (wild concept, huh?), not put on fashion shows.

I'm sorry, I know that many people support uniforms for schoolkids, but I don't because they are unAmerican! This nation was founded in part to protect individual liberty. If we as a nation lose this, we wre in trouble. A large part of the educational process should be the child learning how to dress, to function in society, and yes, to express themselves. Uniforms destroy all of this, and are better relegated to the dictatorships. Why do you think the Muslims use the burquas for their women? Sounds like what you want here.

You are free to express yourself at state school as long as what you are expressing is in complete agreement with the unionists and nihilists who control the system.

And with the Republican politicians who ultimately are in charge of the national school system atm.. who by their actions are in total agreement with the unionists and nihilists.
