Thank you for the heads up Reelya, I'm quite sure my mother will call me saying she has printed out some emails that talk about how my toddler is going to commit suicide for playing reader rabbit.

I am not joking or being sarcastic, even though it's funny in a dark way.

Well, paranoia certainly sells well.

Most schools in the US make you keep your backpack in your locker, btw. So this is, like, extra pointless. And dumb. And basically war profiteering.

Here made things simpler. The schools and highschools simply required:
- Strict uniform adherence. One where is hard to hide something like a gun.
- Transparent backpacks. Transparent plastic backpacks that would allow everyone to see what's in there. Like if every kid was a potential fucking Magneto. Dunno the stance on mind-read proof helmets however.

Of course this wasn't made to deter mass shootings but the ocacional assassination, armed robbery and the far more frequent drug sells and other assorted shenanigans.

United States can't stop surprising me.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Any private school worth it's salt has a uniform to make the parents feel more special.

Umm, most of the world's schools. It's more common to wear one than not. Part of the reason is that it keeps social strata out of schools quite a bit if everyone dresses the same.

Here is law every school and highschool, public or private to impose uniforms. And I think that's the norm in most of the world.

The only non-uniformed item we owned was shoes, and oh my god we’re cool shoes a massive status symbol.

Fuck having complete freedom to dress. Kids shouldn’t have to deal with that kind of shit.

Black school shoes, here. All uniformed until university, with different couloured blazers for those with Honours and also those doing A Levels.
