So much for civics education, huh?

Today, the Allentown Morning Call ran an op-ed by a high school sophomore singing the praises of mandatory uniforms in public and private schools.

It's bad enough that a high school student would support such malarkey, but her reasoning was mind-boggling. In this piece, she said:

"I don't agree that taking away freedom of expression is a bad thing."

What the hell are our children being taught in school?

Certainly not civics, if they think limiting free expression is a good thing.

Schools spend so much time teaching feely-good classes and showing films like 'Fitna' that I guess there's no time left for civics.
