Ok, if it’s not bad enough that schools in the United States are banning games like tag, now we have this BS.
“The superintendent of schools in Sampson County calls the situation unfortunate, but says educators didn’t want to be forced to pick and choose which flags should be permissible.”
Huh? Are you freakin’ kidding me?
Update (9/12/2007 @ 1:03p EDT): My favorite political blogger chimes in on this one.
Update: (9/12/2007 @ 9:39p EDT): The ban has been lifted. Found here.
OK, this really bothers me. Congratulations Mike, you really got me fired up.
To me this rule implies to students that it’s wrong to be a patriot. They might as well be saying, “Don’t bother to register to vote kids.” Sickening.
This stuff is happening more and more around the country and it scares me. I honestly can’t comprehend why so many people are willing to sell this country out and put the “feelings” of others ahead of our own.
god, I think back to my high school days with Gunny Wade. If someone had told us we couldn’t wear or display the flag….serious shit would have hit the fan (and this was during the first Gulf War).
Well, any way it goes, I’m glad I’m not the only one that’s disturbed by this kind of PC garbage.
