School crybabies didn't bother to check the law first

Hilarious!

Totally fucking hilarious!!!

All the pundits and educrats who keep going around saying how great school uniforms are have just received a colossal smackdown! And it was so needed!

Everyone knows what I think about their inane cant, and now I'm laughing square in their faces!

The right-wing school board in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, has been going on and on all summer about how badly mandatory student uniforms are needed. They act like the world will end without them. So recently they formed a subcommittee to study the fascist plan.

Fortunately, Rhode Island law prohibited mandatory uniforms in public schools. Unfortunately, then-State Rep. Roger Picard - a staunch DLCer - introduced a right-wing bill to change that. The school board thanked Picard for passing this law and saving the day for totalitarian social control.

But now - after the Woonsocket school bored launched its committee to explore uniforms - something funny was discovered about that new law: It had never passed.

Ha ha!

Picard says he doesn't know why the bill never got off the ground in the Rhode Island House. Maybe because it's not a wingnut state, perhaps? Boo fucking hoo, Roger.

I guess if that school system wants uniforms, they're going to have to do what that Nazi school district in Massachusetts did when it broke that state's law by requiring uniforms.

Rhode Island's Democratic Party doesn't seem to get the message any more than you'd expect the Republicans to. The party website features a newsletter touting Picard's uniform bill.

Now you know another reason I switched to the Greens.
