Her actual letter made more sense. Brave girl.

Unless you count a black square as vulgar. As for the young Marine, that's another story. If the uniform requirement had been in place all along, fine, no problem. But it's my understanding that there was no set standard in place until the young Marine sought permission to wear his uniform. Only after they thought there would be a uniformed service member in the ceremony did they come up with the policy. Seems like a pretty chicken-shimp course of action to me.

He doesn't want the folks to see the what happens and he has said before that he thinks abortion is the greatest thing. He's all for it, you remember how he constantly hijacks threads with his aboriton yapyap. He thinks pro-death shirts are fine, pro-gay shirts are fine but if someone has a pro-life shirt or pro-military shirt on, he's disgusted. He does love abortion though and it's a sad fact but true fact. Well Yashmak, I realize the kid was in 5th grade but for the little girly man, he doesn’t want it out there for anyone to see at all.

You know lgm was referring to <em>a kid in the fifth grade</em> wearing such a shirt. . .not the wearing of the shirt in other situations. . .although I imagine he doesn't exactly approve of that either.

You pretty much either have to allow it all (political wear from both sides of the aisle), or allow neither. In the case of a grammar school, I come down firmly on the side of neither.

That way no one will have anything to complain about. Especially an elementary school-- good grief-- how many elementary school aged kids do you know who actually HAVE political opinions (beyond parroting things they've heard their parents say)? I don't necessarily think uniforms are necessary, though. In fact, the public school system in my county went to required uniforms when I was in high school, and all it did was give the teachers and administrators one more thing to worry about-- making sure everyone was in proper uniform. Which meant less time devoted to teaching. If people would just commit themselves to employing common sense when dressing themselves (or their children) for school, there wouldn't be a problem.
