Before the Liberals start screaming about how the School-Nazis should not dictate what clothing is permissable for students to wear to school, or claim that school uniforms are unconstitutional, or that only control freaks would try to regulate whether shirts should be tucked into pants or that baggy pants should not be banned from school campuses, I have a few videos for you to watch which just might affect your opinion on the matter.
An eye opening demonstration
Another eye-opening example of real-world threats posed when schools do not require student uniforms or have relaxed dress codes
OMG! Did he really conceal an Abrams A-1 Battle Tank in his backpack?

The point is that to have an informed opinion you must see the links

cannot your point stand on the written word by itself?

Any Federally funded school has a right to impose a dress code for the greater good of the students, least there be distractions from their reason for attending school. EDUCATION
One has no protection under the Constitution that addresses a Dress Code that has been left to Society to outline what acceptable is according to the times.  When I was in my preteen years this argument was present over 50 years ago because boys would wear their Levis without a belt down around their Butts, thinking that it was cool. But then several of them had there pants fall off and they wore no under wear. The schools then banned wearing pants that way, which was their right.

An educational institution is just that a place people go to learn! Distractions should be controlled by the ruling authority!
If it takes uniforms, no cell phones, no fraternizing in the hallways...whatever it takes learning is the top priority...and nothing else..including sports!

Well, I wouldn't rule out sports, given the obesity issue. One thing about uniforms. I think hats should be mandatory given the increasing rates of skin cancer.

I thought I might have to clarify myself! Sports are sometimes deemed so important that academics are thrown to the side in some instances! If a young man or lady can maintain a good average while participating...I am all for it!
But, never should any sports overshadow academics! I have seen some young men that played basketball and baseball better that thousands of others! Yet, could not read past a 5th grade level!
Physical Education should be an everyday activity with the way obesity is today!

learning is the top priority
That is so stupidly untrue. Not only is a priority of education to teach children about what it means to "be a good American", it's also a priority to teach them how to socialise. If it wasn't, then why would one of the main arguments against homeschooling be that the children who are homeschooled are not provided with any means to learn social skills? Children learn the social skills they will need for the rest of their lives at school...book learning is not the top priority. School has a lot of priorities.
BTW - school uniforms would not solve anything, if you're talking about kids bringing guns to school because they were teased. Kids will tease kids....if not about what they're wearing then about how tall they are, how short they are, how fat they are, how thin they are...want me to go on? School uniforms, imnsho, are stupid.

LGQ....I thought you were out of grade school and high school! Well, if they introduce uniforms in your school just transfer pay the tuition and go to another school that does not have iniforms!
School is for learning! Socialization is an added extra you get for going to school! It is not a requirement! That is a major problem today with schools the kids are telling the administration what they want to do instead of the school doing the basics...reading, writing and mathematics with history one of the basic courses!
Remove all soda and snack machines from all schools!
See how simple that is!

here's something on topic:
school uniforms = stupid idea, imo
i get it if it's a private school, but in public school, that's just so stupid.

The links gave the reasons why shirts must be tucked into pants and why no baggy trousers shall be permitted on school property.
Take a moment to see why, and remember Virginia Tech and Columbine both.
If you have NOT seen the links, you cannot understand the reasons for this thread.

Let me guess:
Another simplistic plan is being offered up by neo-cons, thinking that a complex problem can be solved with "bumper sticker" logic.
Yes?
Kind of like "there's too much teenage pregnancies, so let's only tell kids not to have sex." How well is that working, by the way? (Rhetorical question. The answer is, it's not.)

Here is my thought on firing arms
If you are an adult, with no history if of firearm cirme you should be allowed ta buy whatever you can afford. A tank, a holitzer, an uzi whatever.
Infringe don't mean ta stop, it means to encroach on, and that's exactly what the no-gunners er doing.
If you EVER commit a crime with a firearm, you ought NEVER be allowed to legally own one again.
Minors ought not be allowed ta have firearms in their possession without the prescence of the parent er guardian. Your kid got no business goin squirrel huntin with a rifle out runnin around endangering other folks if you ain't with him.
If ya got a gun when you ain't spossed ta, it outter have a stiff penalty,

Jay,
It looks like you not only bear your arms but your entire chest!
I believe woman should be mandated to bear their boobs.
