Not sure why you have a problem with what you bolded. You go to work, the employer has a right to set uniform/look standards. Look at the NFL. And I know you are not defending skinny pants.
Baggy jeans are dumb. You have a bunch of wannabe gangster white boys walking around with their pants hanging around their butt. Skinny jeans have way more class.
Having watch the rights of students steadily erode as I went through school 7 years ago I truly think that the government is conditioning us to give up our rights. Kids these days don't blink at someone telling them what they can or can't wear, that the teachers can go through their lockers, bookbags, take thier cell phones and comb through them.....
They're both ridiculous. Texas has it right. Now if they would just ban dudes from shaping their eyebrows...
I remember the schools giving us crap about wearing our Metallica shirts with the knife sticking up out of the toilet and the phrase, 'Metal up your ***.' on it. And the girls wearing skin tight jeans and short t-shirts. Didn't make a difference in anybody's education that I know of. Every generation wears certain things and listens to certain music that the older people think is inappropriate. Stop being so anal retentive and let 'em wear their stuff.
Open container law?.......**** it. Legal to shoot a person on your property?.......**** it yeah. Wear tight pants or checkered shirts to school.......that is just to obscene and malicious to be done, this needs to be nipped in the bud right away. Can we please stop doing the first two long enough to pull your collective heads out of your asses? Are you ****ing serious? Get a life, it will all be much simpler than trying to make Footloose a reality.
what's with all the rage? I think it's fine to ban them. Many schools have baggy jeans banned too. Spagetti strap tops for girls were banned, short shorts banned, short skirts banned. there is nothing wrong with giving the kids a little structure and rules to follow. They are kids, they need to be told what to do. Stop letting them get away with everything they WANT to do and make them learn to do as they are told and respect authority, other people, and themselves.
actually...we would lose about 10 to 12% of our tax base and grow our defecit by at least 20% per year. Gas Prices would also rise by as much as 60 cents, while Texans would pay half as much. so...let's trade the emo's out..and keep texas in.
I'm guessing you're a parent. I remember my grandma telling me about Elvis and the 'long haired' Beatles, and how bad of an influence they were on kids in the 60's. A lot of this post sounds like it's taken right out of her comments. You two would get along just fine.
As much as I agree with your sentiments about this story (Freakin rediculous is what it is) you are out of touch with reality in regards to being better off without Texas. Like it or not, that is the way it is.
are you girls really this pissed off about skinny jeans not being allowed in a school district? LOL ok.
That's a really flawed analogy. The NFL is private enterprise, and therefore can enforce the standards it chooses. This is a publicly funded school district that is paid for, in part, by the taxes of it's constituency. It's apples-and-oranges to compare the two.
You've never been to Miami I take it? The trailer parks are in Davie, Sothwest, Central, Northeast and Northwest Florida. Not Miami, stoopid.
Kids do have more sense of entitlement then any generation I have seen so in that respect I agree. But it has nothing to do with the clothes they wear. It has more to do with the generation they came from and how they are being raised.
I agree.... drugs, murder, and sociopathic behaviour....but with a sense of culture and style. yeah...**** texas.
I disagree with the outlawing. Yes, I hate skinny jeans, but I love making fun of people who wear skinny jeans...and something about native Texans wearing skinny jeans just smacks of hilarity.
i went to a school where we had to wear uniforms. at the time we all complained loudly, but in retrospect.... it doesn't matter. more of a "who cares?" type of thing. i'm not against that new rule, and this has nothing to do with freedoms - you can be free & express yourself in your own time, IMO... but when you're at school you follow their rules. if clothing is distracting the education process, then do what you have to do. they don't make these rules just because, i'm sure there was some circumstance(s) that necessitated this. :shrug:
