How to avoid being dress coded

In the realm of public education slipping on leggings is an act of war. Hallways become relentless battle fields with guerrilla soldiers scouting out members of the opposing side- those who do not conform to their ideals of acceptability.

This war began long ago when the two sides copy editor they could never coexist. Those wishing to dress in a manner fit to their individuality transfigured into the sole enemy of educational facilities.

With the procession of time each side has morphed, in more modern terms, to students and administrators.

As with every war a competitor concieves an operation to glide by their opposition unnoticed.

Below lies the most successful: ing cigarette tar on the bare skin of the animal’s flesh, then killing the remaining test subjects that survived and concluding the tests by dissecting them are some of the controversial methods used.

If this is not repulsive enough, the maker of Newport cigarettes, Lorillard Tobacco, subjected thousands of rats and mice to forcefully breathe in cigarette smoke for several hours a day, everyday. What is upsetting about these barbaric testing reports is that these animals’ anatomy and body reactions are completely unrelated to those of a human being that smokes cigarettes. Comparing reallife smokers to rats in a laboratory is simply illogical and unrealistic to discover any substantial information that could benefit any one of the parties involved.

Not one of the tobacco companies in the United States are required to conduct animal testing. In fact, in several countries, including the United Kingdom and Germany, these activities are strictly prohibited. If this is upsetting to the public, the most obvious action to take is to quit buying the products they are selling- cigarettes being the most commonly used. On top of this, anyone can write to the FDA to inquire that they seize the primitive use of animals for tobacco testing. A change is possible. To write to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the information is as follows:
