Students at Independence High School in Williamson County, Tennessee, will not be allowed to watch President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration during class on Friday.
Senior Olivia Roberts was so surprised by the ban she decided to write a Facebook post that has since gone viral:
“To preface this, I am not one to post or debate anything political on Facebook but wanted to hear thoughts on this:
I go to public school and we are not allowed to watch the inauguration tomorrow...
Teachers are banned to show it.
Teachers are also not allowed to discuss anything about politics or religions which is understandable but this is a nationwide event in history that I think an a US citizen (whether you are happy about it or not) should be watched to honor and support the president of The United States of America (no matter who it is) And pay respect to the country we are privileged to live in. We watched the last 2 presidential inaugurations in school.”

I go to public school and we are not allowed to watch the inauguration tomorrow... Teachers are banned to show it. What happened 4 years ago?
And 4 years before that?
And the mandatory MmmMmmmMmmmm songs?

More than one school.
My kids’ school isn’t showing it today (”highlights Monday”). I’m taking them out during lunch to see it live.

Williamson County is a very conservative county at the polls.

That’s exactly what we need. We should start by blacking out their federal funding.

Let's not be hyperbolic. Rounded up, Tennessee went 61% for Trump.
Very good, but still behind states like Kentucky, Wyoming, West Virginia, both Dakotas and Oklahoma.
