Baltimore: 9th Grader Sucker-Punched And Jumped by Classmates For Wearing Confederate Flag T-Shirt
DC Clothesline ^ | 11/02/2018 | Chris Menahan

The media is more focused on whether the shirt was appropriate rather than the violent mob beating.

On Friday, numerous Kenwood High School students in Baltimore, Maryland physically attacked a fellow classmate for wearing a shirt with a Confederate flag on it, students say. A video of the apparent brawl, wherein multiple students are seen assaulting a classmate as a teacher unsuccessfully tries to break up the mayhem, has since made the rounds on social media.

Yeah, like a white kid needs to display a confederate flag to get violently attacked in a public school. Sending your white child to a majority (or even significantly) black school is child abuse.

The mob was lawless and should be charged with assault; but the kid was a fool to wear that shirt.

That wasn’t a “mob”...That was children of “tolerant” liberal parents...

Agree 100%. What kind of parent let’s their kid wear that to school? It doesn’t matter how you feel about the symbol — you’re asking people to beat up your kid. In today’s world, that’s exactly what you should expect. Reality: deal with it.

Back in the day, some hippies used the Confederate flag as a sign of non-conformity and rebellion; nobody called them racists or accused them of wanting to bring back slavery.

Where does it stop? MAGA hat? NRA hat? "Vote Republican" t-shirt? "I Love Jesus" t-shirt? Wearing a cross? How far underground are you willing to let them push us?

****What kind of parent let’s their kid wear that to school?****

Kind of like wearing a MAGA hat to school? There’s items I don’t agree with people wearing, but it is a form of speech and hitting someone because you disagree with them is absolutely wrong. I despise people burning the flag, but idiots are allowed to be idiots. I simply speak out against, I don’t sucker punch them.

The message is:

You must believe what we tell you to believe.

There is no freedom of speech.

If you violate the Mediacracy groupthink, you will be beaten.

The proper response to this would be all the attackers charged and convicted of assault.

Yeah, but Baltimore.

I won’t say the kid was asking for it, but if he was gonna poke the bear, he better be sure he can handle the after effects.

It's like sending your kid to a government school wearing a t-shirt bearing a United States flag.

Political language (political correctness) is designed to make lies truthful, and murder respectable.

Remember that movie where the bad guy made Bruce Willis go to Harlem and wear a sign with the N-word on it and he got his ass kicked? This is the real-life version of that, and just as stupid.
