Anyways, this rule would make us have to do whatever they say, because they won't let students decide if the command is reasonable, they will. It is making us get used to being controlled from an early age.
Here is my plan:
I have made many fliers showing this rule, and my response. I will put them them throughout the school. On Monday I will turn myself in, and from there any punishment imposed upon me would basically be because i spread the truth and fee knowledge throughout the school. I will then make flyers about that, and put them in the school.
How is this any different than having to listen to your parents? I think the idea is that up until a certain age you need to follow what most adults say then you only have to follow laws after that....does it train you to follow laws? Yes it does...if we all decided to drive through red lights tomorrow a lot of people would die so laws/rules aren't arbitrary. Also I imagine your own parents would have some say in whether the command is reasonable most likely for your safety.

What if there was a fire and you chose not to evacuate and your teacher had to either deal with you or leave you behind...it might be a reasonable command that you leave the burning building. What if acid was leaking from the ceiling. Should they write out every scenario? A plague of Mosquitos or whatever....they just took the easy way out by being vague.

If you want to challenge this you'll have a better time if you got through your mom.....
