Question

It has been shown that schools with uniform policies for students have lower levels of crime. This includes fewer fights, less property damage, and a near lack of weapons violations. They have also been known to reduce bullying and peer pressure. For this reason, I believe that our local school system should adopt a uniform policy for all students.
A student includes this argument in a presentation. Which rhetorical question will enhance the message?
