>>But you're wrong. Once you want to wear an uniform, it's of unified form for everybody who wears it, that's the point. Want to show your individuality? Well then don't go for a job where you have to wear one. Uniform, by definition, erases personality, and any differences between those who wear it.

>Disagree. Who joins a police force just because they want to wear a uniform? Are we so overwhelmed by the number of people who are willing and able to put their lives on the line to serve and protect our society that we can afford to turn away some of those who do just because their religion demands what kind of hat they are required to wear?

Well if you're having trouble with enforcing the uniform, that's a different matter. The regular explanation of the idea of uniform is as I said above. Once you start making exceptions, you're after a different definition.

This doesn't mean I like uniforms. Don't get me wrong. Had I liked to wear one, I'd be a postman or a conductor.
