Let that sink in.


The school praised them for it.


quote:

Prior to the game on Friday, student leaders read a statement to their classmates over the intercom explaining their decision to “change from a patriotic USA to pink-out theme”:

“The decision to change from a patriotic USA to pink-out theme for the student section was the decision of the Ames High student body alone. The only involvement by Ames High staff was to give the student body an opportunity to come together this morning and talk about how every student organization at Ames High has a voice.”

“Is this political? Maybe. But we are proud of how our students showed great leadership today by coming together.”

No, you're supposed to be offended by this because you're not a snowflake and you shouldn't be offended by everything like snowflakes.

We know you and the rest of the Dems don’t, that’s why there’s an issue.

Ain’t that the truth. I wish they would just stand for the anthem like everyone else and put their hand on their heart and pledge fealty to the flag.

I don't remember the anthem playing at any high school sporting event. Good for them. Prevents any protest.

Uh...they played it every football game when I was in high school.

Had the local JROTC color guard march the flag out on the field as well.

All the other high schools in the area did the same.

You were either home schooled, your school didn't have a football team or you are straight up lying...
