re: "Tech college student shot dead" (BP, November 20, 2023)
Dear editor,
Yet another college student shot dead. As before, this one was apparently identified by the uniform he was wearing. Even were no other, the fact that students are being shot when identified by their uniforms would seem a compelling reason to ban uniforms for those past high school. They serve no useful purpose, inflame toxic pride, and clearly label students for the demented with guns who judge according to the group membership marked by those uniforms.
