Hooded Sweatshirts Banned from Some New Jersey Schools

In the name of efficient surveillance, hooded sweatshirts are banned from some New Jersey schools:
“…The schools say students wearing hoods can conceal their identities from hallway cameras that might catch them cutting class or breaking into a locker.”

Along that line of thinking then, caps, rain gear, parkas, anoraks and an endless list of other clothing would be forbidden. Perhaps if the students complain, the authorities can tell them that it is not as bad as wearing radio frequency identification chips (RFID) and being tracked every moment of the day.

Get this… Riverside HS in Burlington county, allows pull-over hoodies but not zippered front Hoodies. How is that for stoopidity?

Dave, hats and sunglasses are not allowed in some banks but they are not a problem at airports.
