NC County School Superintendant Bans US Flag on 9-11
HT - Drudge
SAMPSON COUNTY, N.C. On the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, students at one high school were not allowed to wear clothes with an American Flag.
Under a new school rule, students at Hobbton High School are not allowed to wear items with flags, from any country, including the United States. The new rule stems from a controversy over students wearing shirts bearing flags of other countries.
Gayle Langston said her daughter, Jessica, was told to remove her stars and stripes t-shirt. Today she wanted to wear her shirt, and I had to tell her no, said Langston. She didn't like it at all because I knew it would get her in trouble. Of all days, 9/11, she could not wear her American Flag shirt.
The superintendent of schools in Sampson County calls the situation unfortunate, but says educators didnt want to be forced to pick and choose which flags should be permissible.
Hey Politically Correct Quisling in the guise of a so-called Educator: 9-11 is a somber day, and the US Flag is a special case.
The name of this Quisling Appeaser is, L. Stewart Hobbs.
Never trust anyone who uses a first initial in a case like this. It reaks of pretentiousness
This county voted Bush 56-Kerry 44 in the last election.
I think some parents should confront the school board. This is the kind of BS nonsense I would expect out of Berkley, CA.
Educators can't be trusted to tell the difference between an American flag and the flag of another country? |
