incorrect. want to slander my name? be my guest, not really hurting my feelings. but in case you didn't realize, I stated that I thanked everyone who even disagreed with me, but remained civil. you disagree? that's alright, but back it up with something. the people who are jerks about it, I have a problem with. that post was sort of between the two, but I still don't really appreciate it, because it isn't what I said AT ALL! thank you and have a nice day, and I appreciate you being nice about it...wait a second...  why couldn't you just say "hey man, seems like you think everyone who disagrees with you is an arrogant jerk?" oh wait, cause you're an arrogant jerk who disagrees with me, but can't argue your point without trying to get personal. grow up.
people who are bashing me for asking for support, yes, they are arrogant jerks. I'm not forcing this upon anyone. I asked for you to read the article, and vote no. you dont' want to? don't, but there's no need to make personal attacks. I know this board is mainly conservative, but honestly, are his piercings hurting anyone? I just graduated from Fort Meade highschool in maryland, yes it's on a military base, and yes they disallowed certain things in the dress code. what were they? things that promote sex, drugs/alcohol, violence, gangs, terrorism, etc. You could have pink hair, 3 tattooes, 47 piercings, but as long as you weren't disruptive they didn't do anything to you. This from a school that has MPs and police on current patrol, and when you pull into the school grounds, you're greeted with 3 men pointing AK-47's at you saying they have to do random searches on all cars that come through, I'd thought THEY were strict. what is a little stud in his lebrat promoting? nothing. it's a black ball for crying out loud.
I like the analogy of the tattoos. what if he simply had a black dot tattooed on his labret? same effect, whatcha gonna do about it? honestly people, I think it's time we stop trying to control petty things such as how many piercings someone has.

You're missing the point, platinum drew...
At schools where students naturally are disciplined and strictness is implied, there isn't a need to minimize "accessories"; however, at public schools, where the majority of kids are immature brats, all this excess is just another excuse for students to act like morons.
Sorry, but life isn't fair. Personal expression cannot be infinite.

Yes, but you made it obvious that the rules were military-like (re: strict) and that insubordination is unacceptable.

you think kids cared it was on a military base? our school was known in the county for being the "bad school". the consequences were just more severe.
give me a good reason he shouldn't be allowed to wear them. not "it's distracting". distratcing to whom? the students who should be concentrating on the teacher? if that little black dot is really messing you up that badly, I'd like to see how they react to someone with a deformity. my friend had one arm in highschool, it was plenty distracting at first. get used to it. should we lock him up in solitary too?
alright, "it's in the dress code". the dress code is crap. sorry, I said it. it makes no sense. if it was a 6 inch spike, alright, say something, it's a weapon if nothing else. the entire point of this is that the dress code should be changed. where do we draw the line at piercings? the ear? well what if I want 28 piercings along my ear. that's just as distracting as a ball in my labret and a stud in my brow. it's gender discrimination. you seen what girls put in their ears these days? I tell you, they draw a LOT more attention than what he has. 4 inch gold hoops, fuzzy balls the size of a golfball, 6 inch dangling silver earrings. wanna ban all jewelry? ok. do it. still isn't right but at least we wont have any distractions. might as well go for the school uniform too. wait, it's a public school, they can't enforce uniforms...oops...my girlfriend is in a catholic school. she can only wear one earring at a time. they're allowed to, it's a private organization, and no one forces anyone to go to that school.
why doesn't he change schools? you can't just say "I don't like this school, I'm switching". you're zoned for a school, and by law, he has to go to school. why should he have to take out the piercings he paid to get? ok, take them out during school (hypothetically) and they close up.

WHERE.....DO.....YOU.....DRAW......THE........LINE?
Whats one more piercing or tattoo or brighter hair dye? Maybe we just should just walk around naked because we don't believe in the trendyness of clothing.
You still don't get it. You're not at school to socialize or show off your individuality, you're there to learn.
