Repentance unto what, we must ask.

If unto some composite deity of “God-and-country” — that composite deity has lost plausible existence, and maybe for excellent reason. I believe we’ve had an idol in our pantheon and not realized it. An actual jealous God can only will it to go away.

The salvation of Christ must be appreciated, and embraced, anew. As the old saw goes (admittedly not directly quoted in the bible, but backed up by biblical principles) — God has no grandchildren. If each generation will not freshly acknowledge the Lord, then it will be, of course and sadly, lost.

In some sense, they have gotten what they have politically clamored for. Now they must live with it.

Most people don’t realize how far we have fallen. Trying not to be too pessimistic, but I think we’ve gone too far.

But employing their battle flag in such a way might offend the French!

Here’s a repost of the comment I made on this article at the link.

Taunting at a sporting event? Oh, the horrors! How could such a thing be possible?

Here’s an idea. Allow the freedom of expression instead of trying to stifle it.

You clowns in positions of authority are supposed to be teaching young people, which includes how to behave. Instead, you shirk the responsibilities to act as positive influences and act as censors.

If it were up to me, I’d fire the lot of you. At the very least, I’d withdraw my kid from your “school” and teach them at home.

BS. Ignore it. Then let’s see what happens.

Even better: Refuse to attend the game. Football is religion in the South, and a half-empty stadium on Friday night will send major shockwaves through the community.

Let the Superintendent and the School Board president know why you're not at the game. I promise you, if enough people do this, it will get everyone's attention.

A school's ACT scores may be in the tank, but that's no reason to panic. Boycotting high school football games... that's another matter entirely.

How about we fire the Principal; and all the teachers.

Seems these people don’t realize they are in America .. not some foreign country.

Time to re-educate some of the teachers/principals.

Remember, these schools receive $32/per student from the federal govt. The only way these schools pay attention is to keep your child out of school. It requires planning and organization - but you’re great parents and you can do it.

After just a few days, or a couple of weeks, the school will finally listen to your complaints .. no Muslim teaching; no climate change garbage, etc., whatever it is that the parents want changed. IT CAN BE DONE.

We have idiots running our schools and other government bureaucracies.

This is America - Not Mexico or Honduras.

American players and fans should boycott this school’s games until the flag ban is rescinded.

When the stands are empty except for a few clusters of illegals and the school can’t field a full team they might come to their senses.

The Republican establishment in South Carolina surrendered on the Battle Flag; looks like the ‘Progs’ are continuing to push.

If the brown folks really were loyal American citizens, they’d respond by bringing their own American flags to the game to taunt the unreconstructed folks.

“in the spirit of patriotism” no US flags. Help me understand how that works please. Only a “living in the looking glass lunatic liberal” would make such a statement.

I live not far from Traveler’s Rest, and I’d bet the farm that the stands will be full of flags on Friday night!!

Wouldn’t want to pay some jackass in US dollars that flag represents!
