I would have hated wearing one but I have always been in favor of them, sure it's great to question authority and stand out, but middle school is about schooling and not leading an insurrection, anyone who thinks uniforms for school children is fascist should be dragged out into the street and shot.
I'm pretty sure I wore jeans and a t-shirt to every day of 7th and 8th grade... hardly an insurrection was being led. I really don't think uniforms will change the fact that occasionally two middle school girls get in a fight and one bashes the others head against the wall until her eye pops out of hte socket...
Personally I think kids should be in elementary school until 6th grade and then have very small classes in 7th and 8th grade so that the teachers can keep an eye on their hormonal pipsqueaks.
I could go for that too, but while we're at it we should re-do this whole school thing from top to bottom.
