Kid Sues for Straight Pride

A lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court by one Denver Public Schools father alleging his two children have been denied their First Amendment rights to have a "straight pride" flag in school may stand a chance in court.
"This is not a groundbreaking lawsuit. This is just a controversial lawsuit," said David Lane, a civil rights attorney based in Denver.
CBS News
Remember when they told American kids in American schools they couldn't wear American flags on Cinco De Mayo cause they illegals might get upset? Same thing.
But it did get me thinking. Amazon sells straight pride bumper stickers. I like 'em.

Attention whores are always terrible, regardless of their political persuasion.
Is an attention whore.

Sit down and shut up and take it, you white, cis, hetero oppressor.
Any reason you feel so strongly opposed to it?

I agree, the attention whores here are the LGBTQ freaks who want to be the only thing celebrated or represented.
Their flags/books are in school, they should be forced to tolerate others and share the space with others.

Idgaf about the suit. Frivolous lawsuits shouldn’t be encouraged or seen as brave or whatever either though.

When you look at me, you can just tell. I don’t need a flag.

Yes. Posting on any anonymous political discussion board is exactly the same as trying to gain attention by filing a first amendment suit over a made up flag

I don't find civil liberties to be a frivolous issue. He can be an attention whore and in the right at the same time.

Absolutely.

All flags are made up, short stack. If it's not a big deal, why does he have to sue the school to get the right to carry it, being free and proper political speech and all?

Because he’s in Denver. But of course you knew that, and so does he.
I’m sure he’s just a principled constitutionalist though.

Not sure how that's relevant. Pretty sure the first amendment still applies in Denver.

That’s what you would’ve been posting about Rosa Parks.

You asked why he has to sue in order to pretend like his kid wanted to have that flag at school. I answered.

And yet, you attached the word "frivolous" to his complaint.

I hate making assumptions, but I'm pretty sure he was expecting an intelligent answer.

Frivolous is how you describe His pride?

Yes I did. Filing a lawsuit because you want to pretend that your kid cares about carrying some nonsense flag at school is frivolous.
But obviously this is a very important issue for many here.

I think I just found the explanation.
