sort of ironic considering the hoodie that kid is wearing is not too far off the Ar-Kansas state flag

Rainbow flags don't represent treason.

Yep. 10000%.

What these kids did is dumb also, but there is a clear double standard.

I found it interesting in True Detective S3 E3 they had the redneck stereotype wearing a giant American Flag on his hat when he jumped the Indian.

Pretty fair stereotype. They exist for a reason.

BTW, this season has been solid.

I bet they let them wear the commie flag or the rainbow flag or the BLM flag or Antifa or any other progressive pet causes.


Free speech means defending even speech you agree with. Especially that

That shirt looks similar to our cheerleader uniforms in HS. They were just one giant confederate flag. There were confederate flags on everything - football field/uniforms, basketball court, yearbooks etc.

If they do they shouldn't. Free speech doesn't mean you can do or say whatever the frick you want, it means the government can't suppress speech. This kid is an idiot, it's pretty simple, he wants to stir shite up at school.

I am in now way equating these situations and I think the kid has a right to free speech here as well, but I have a hypothetical question:

Would you guys be ok with suspending a kid that showed up in full Nazi uniform that was hail Hitler'ing all over the place in front of Jewish students?

Or a kid that showed up in Muslim head garb with pro-Al Quaeda 9/11 attack shite written on his shirt in front of kids whose parents died in the towers?

High school student suspended for wearing Confederate flag attire


1. What are the school and county demographics?

2. Does the school have a dress code?

3. Even if 2 is not available, the school has a right to determine what is considered appropriate attire. The harsh reality is that even under the best of circumstances, the students and the school could be used as a political target.
