A kid can't wear a jersey because it contains a "gang number"... :banghead:

After careful consideration, all my substantive comments on the topic end in rants that wouldn't pass the forum rules.

So does that mean they can't write "86" in their math work? Because if they did, they would be complicit in a conspiracy towards "86".

I'm going to start a gang that uses the numbers 1, 2, 3, ... 8, 9, and 10. Math class is going to be so much more fun now :mrgreen:

I want to patent the binary values of "zero" and "one". :evil2:

I had seen that and noted that they said they wanted to set a consistent solid example. If that were true they would ban all numbers. As it is they are being discriminatory by only banning certain numbers. If they tried this with me I would try and find a Jared Allen jersey from the Minnesota Vikings and see what they do with that.
