I’m back again

I totally forgot I didn’t finish replying to one of Marsh’s posts in a rush yesterday, which are actually pro-uniform arguments.

That could literally apply to anything.
If someone is so unorganised they've misplaced clothing, or forgot to wash it then they will do that no matter what the clothes are.
Well, with that ridiculous mindset forcing children to attend school at all is limiting their freedom. But that's why they're kids. They don't have 100% autonomy on 100% of their lives. They have parents, guardians who are responsible for them until they come of age for a reason.

- The pro-uniforms point that was originally made was that it was a type of safety measure for students. They know which kids belong to which school, if there’s an intruder in the building, etc. etc. (I specifically brought up intruder but the original point was that exact type of reasoning)
My argument is that’s not true, as another kid, or potentially more dangerous intruder can blend right in if they simply know the uniform policy and match it. It’s not difficult to do. It’s a pro-uniforms point I disagree with actually being beneficial. Furthermore, if an intruder is actually spotted by someone in the hallway or on camera, which one is easier to find and identify? A unique face or a unique face AND wardrobe that they can warn supervisors/teachers/etc. about when they alarm a “code red” situation.
- It’s kinda easy to misplace one required item of clothing or be delayed on a planned wash schedule for something you have roughly 2 pairs of and no other choice or substitute. Typically a person in a regular situation would have other options to resolve being late for that reason.
The argument for uniforms is that it saves time in the morning. Not true necessarily. Your “unorganized” argument kinda makes the initial pro-uniforms point null and void as well

Any organized person will have their wardrobe nicely sorted or even decided on the night before so that they take very little time to get ready in the morning.
- You also made another ridiculous exaggeration at the end there “why have them go to school at all” ... I explained this in depth in my latest post on the last page though so won’t get into it again. Apparently the thought process for one idea has to mean that an extreme comparison
has to be true. Lol, no there should be regard to contexts & common sense obviously.
