is it cool for kids to wear a hoody with a swastiska on it?

How would that be any different than what happened here?





The Confederates weren’t systematically exterminating a race of people in ovens?

Suspended? That's retarded. Sent home to change would be appropriate


I believe the suspension was a result of him refusing to go home and change

No shite... history isn't a stagnant thing. We once put leeches on people to suck out the "diseased blood".

It's not absolving anyone, it's being honest in recognizing that these kinds of clothing prohibitions are selectively enforced, largely based on who raises the biggest stink to administrators and teachers.

The people on here trashing someone for wearing a Confederate Flag would be the first people on here deriding the school for suspending a student for wearing a gay pride shirt or a goth outfit because the FCA members objected, even if said students were just as offended as those who dislike the Confederate Flag.

Most of the folks on here defending the right of the student to wear the shirt (Weagle99 and Roger) are your PoliBoard libertarians who don't really care what clothing someone else wears and would not change their opinion based on the subject matter of the clothing. That's a much more honest and consistent approach imo.

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.




Come on fr33. This is a high school. They do not allow kids to wear anything that will great chaos.

When I was in HS they banned the colors blue, red and purple. Those were colors 3 different gangs used and if one person went "reppin" their colors around a group from the other gang... they would get jumped.. So I would imagine a school would ban all of that.
