MA Teacher refuses to display child's drawing of an American flag
The family of Frankie Girard is claiming that their son's civil rights were violated after a teacher allegedly told him that hanging his picture of the American flag would offend another student.

"He was denied hanging the flag up. And, he asked if he could just even hang it on his desk, and he was told no. He could take the picture that he drew and take it home and be proud of it there,” Girard said.
I guess it's not OK to offend "one of his muslim classmates", but it is OK to offend Americans.

So where do Americans fit in here in America? Where should Americans go so they can do simple things like publicly display a flag, sing their national anthem, etc.?

Why should I be pressured in this way? My children? I don't give a flying fuc& about anybody who is offended by an American flag when flown on American soil. If the sight is so bad, they should just go back to the Utopia from which they came.

This teacher doesn't have the common sense that God gave a leech. And anyone who feels they even have to add to the controversy by slowing down to think about this is part of the problem.
