why ban boots? seems stupid, if you are having an issue enforcing the ban on cell phones make the punishments for being caught with one much harsher. dont ban boots because thats how they get them in, kids will get the phones in anyway no matter how many articles of clothing they ban. kids could come in the nude and they would still hide their phones.



And we could hire Belt to find them!

Nice, but as for stupid, one of our school boards has banned balls. Not the testicular type, but the type that kids could play with and do some exercise outside.

Guess they were too dangerous.

Must be some incompetent kids out there who can't run and dial 911 at the same time



Fractions of seconds matter sometimes. If I know a guy with a gun is just around the corner, I am not stopping to get that phone out of whatever crevice it's hiding in and start dialing. I am getting to safety. The 911 operator isn't going to help me when I am filled full of holes.



Then I guess you are incompetent also.

[quote=tsingtao2

The school district does have a mandatory uniform for the middle school students. The school handbook devotes a section to proper attire that states shoes, boots and sneakers with matching-colored laces are permitted. It also says if clothing disrupts learning, the administration has the right to set rules about questionable attire.






really lol

Incompetent in that situation? I think not. I would most likely be alive, which is more than I can say for you if you tried the alternative.

I can make a phone call and run at the same time but apparently you aren't coordinated enough to accomplish the same task.
