Students Get Suspended For Supporting America

[username]

In October of 2001, the school I was attending issued American flag bumper stickers...with the school's logo on the flag.

I told the school's administrators how disrespectful and self-serving it was for them to seek profit both on the flag and the deaths of the nearly 3,000 people who died.

They didn't even bat an eye and looked at me like there was something wrong with me. They couldn't understand what the problem was.

Yes.. I heard about it.
You burnt the flag. Screamed down whit the white racists. Allah Ackbar! Allah Obama!

Its famous all around the world.
Even Swedish media reported it. And they agreed with you. "Die American pigs"

It's still protected free speech, in fact, even when (actually, especially when) it's offensive to others.

Oh I agree -- if someone wants to wipe their ass with a flag, that's their right. I think that push to make it illegal to do anything offensive to a flag against the law (was that ever passed?) was silly. I was just pointing out the reason they were asked to remove them was not because the teachers were lefty liberal 'Merica haters, but because they found the use of the flag as a sweat band highly offensive, and possibly disruptive. The guys returning to disrupt the assembly further kind of proved their point that these kids were looking for attention. Schools have the right to try to prevent that kind of thing.

Where I come from, it is highly disrespectful to wear the flag like that.

My Dad feels the same way; wearing an American Flag on a t-shirt, head-band, etc. drives him absolutely nuts. You'd think he served in Nam or some shit, but he was a pussy draft dodger. It's amazing what happens to people when they age.

[Keyser Soze]

yea, when a republican ran Kalifornia, everything was great and this stuff didnt happen, and taxes were low, and there was no debt, etc

Pete Wilson was the last real Republican who ran Kalifornia.
He was a successful Governor and Kalifornia prospered under his leadership.

Arnold was and is a RINO.

YOU have proven yourself to be one of the bed-wetters who would have complained about being offended.

arnold was a republican. thats a fact.
all republican are in name only, its a name that means nothing.
unlike u, i care less what party anyone is in. i judge each individual based on policy.

im not offended by it at all.
i care less what anyone wears on their head. be it a flag, a ny yankees cap, or a towel.
you seem offended though so maybe YOU the bedwetter.
you may even be a liberal, as you supported several liberal policies and politicians



ps: breaking the rules to wear clothing items that are not acceptable, is far more liberal than conservative.

You have OBVIOUSLY confused me with someone else you obtuse shithead.
I don't vote for liberals be they democrats or Republicans.

Now please STFU and die with festering boils.
Kalifornia is the land of fruits and nuts and governed by bed-wetters afraid of their own shadows.

[DaBUU]

seems to me they were suspended because they're a bunch of little assholes, and not because of they were supporting America.

[racerx]

.

who'd you vote for in the last 3 elections?

you don't you support dems when they are conservative on an issue?

[Keyser Soze]

who'd you vote for in the last 3 elections?

None of your fucking business

you don't you support dems when they are conservative on an issue?

I don't support democrats PERIOD.
They are brain damaged socialists.
There is no such thing as a democrat who is "conservative on an issue".
The fact they are democrats means they have embraced the nanny state.

I support independent conservatives, libertarians and conservative Republicans.

FTR, I voted AGAINST Ted Cruz as he's bought & paid for trial lawyer owned by the Chinese.

[racerx]

None of your fucking business

I don't support democrats PERIOD.

i knew you wouldnt answer, because you arent proud of who you support.

some dems are conservative on some issues. including the pres.
if you cheered them for it, maybe they'd do more of it.
we could list them, but i know you dont care.

your gov would flip to dem if he thought it would make him win.
party affiliation is meaningless

[itpdude]

You'll love this. As a kid I was cashier at a grocery store that had a HUGE American flag flying outside (pre 9/11). The store manager had been a serviceman of some sort (think it was Navy) and was proud of his service. It was intown Atlanta.

Anyways, we actually received complaints about the flag outside. One of our customers was in the store and witnessed a complaint someone gave me about the flag outside. He waited for the customer to leave and said to me, "what is this? Russia or something? Who complains about an American flag in the US?"

It was a surprise, too, because the guy was an artsy-type. I kinda expected him to agree with the complainer but even he recognized the ridiculousness of the complaint.

It takes all kinds. . . .

[Keyser Soze]

i knew you wouldnt answer, because you arent proud of it. be proud of who you support.

i know you dont. thats my point that you don't really care about conservatism or liberalism, you just care if the are a dem or not.
a title that is meaningless.

I am EXTREMELY proud of who I vote for!
Words and labels have meanings.
The democrat party and its members espouse something and are something that should be REVILED!

You sir haven't said a fucking thing to indicate you are anything more than a worthless troll who's butt-hurt
because someone told you the truth about the land of fruits and nuts known as Kalifornia.

Here you go.
Just fill it out Nancy.
PS- Don't forget to go out and get those new rubber pants for the bed-wetting.

how am i butthurt about who you voted for when i dont even know who it is?
you the one who seems mad. i just enjoy discussing politics. you dont want to, thats fine.
probably the people you voted for are liberal on a lot of issues.


and again, as to the thread topic, its more liberal to wear banned clothing items.

The fuck are you talking about?

[FlaFlaFlunkie]

Oh I agree -- if someone wants to wipe their ass with a flag, that's their right. I think that push to make it illegal to do anything offensive to a flag against the law (was that ever passed?) was silly.

It was a U.S. Supreme Court case in the '80s and it was ruled that burning the flag is constitutionally-protected, free speech.

I was just pointing out the reason they were asked to remove them was not because the teachers were lefty liberal 'Merica haters, but because they found the use of the flag as a sweat band highly offensive, and possibly disruptive.

That's still a violation of the 1st Amendment, but courts have, in the past, sided with schools in their attempt to maintain order and keep the students' focus on their studies...or some shit like that.

The guys returning to disrupt the assembly further kind of proved their point that these kids were looking for attention. Schools have the right to try to prevent that kind of thing.

Yeah, but if the school administrators simply ignored them, that might've taken care of the problem too.

[FishySausage]

That 4 sentence "article" is considered journalism nowadays?
Seriously??

[SouthernListen]

Oh, you mean the same way it's self-serving and disrespectful to profit on red ribbons and the deaths of thousands?

They didn't even bat an eye and looked at me like there was something wrong with me. They couldn't understand what the problem was.

[Cunt]

In the late 80s I wore an American flag to a toga party. One guy there wanted to kick my ass.

[FlaFlaFlunkie]

Oh, you mean the same way it's self-serving and disrespectful to profit on red ribbons and the deaths of thousands?

Are you talking about AIDS ribbons? I got mine after I made a donation to Am-Far, but I guess there are others who sell them. Unless the money goes to a charity, it's a despicable form of commerce.
