The American Flag Is 'Offensive' in Schools Now

Increasingly, it seems that the American flag is joining toy guns and dodgeball on the banned-from-school list. And the latest story on this front involves The Butterfield Elementary in Orange, Massachusetts, where a teacher told an eleven-year-old boy that he may not hang his depiction of Old Glory because it might "offend" another student.

The boy, Frankie Girard, had drawn the picture in art class but then found that his teacher didn't share his patriotism. Says his father, John, "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."

I guess patriotism has joined piety as a "private matter." (Leftists tend to confuse closets with shelves. Everything that should be in the former, they display; everything that should be on the latter, they hide.)

One by one the symbols that reflect our history, (what made America great) are being suppressed and denied. Our youth are indeed being brain washed to believe in social justice, socialism and communism as better ways than freedom, liberty, the right of personal property, capitalism, rights of free speech, right to self defense and the 2nd amendment right to own guns, etc., ... those wanting one world government, and one world currency, which would require all the poor nations to have a ongoing flow of monies from the rich nations. Some nations will not actually give portions, claiming their own poor need their monies. Of course, they are actually stealing the monies of their nation. Venezuela and Cuba, Russia come to mind instantly.

There are people out there that hate our flag, hate this country, hate white people and hate the American way of life.

America bad, white people bad, has been taught in our public schools from *many* years.

People thought we were joking when we said they were fascist with a PC swastika, ie. the seal of Zero will replace it.

They are in full blown recruiting mode behind passive aggressive “peace love” moves that remove that “baby killer” flag.

So, while the world is waiting to picked by us for all its riches, we bicker and do stupid crap like this, because that is PC to be stupid and indoctrinated by pedophiles and pedophile corrupt parties.

They attack the sacred... first they came for white people, now it’s the flag, and next they will be recruiting for this vile narcissist and his stupid idiot union sbir zombies, uncastrating of their disgusting branches of protest, in our faces, always, their boots on our throats.

Cops and all blue collar glorified secretaries named lawyers to boot.

Tend the other cheek, let them desecrate, let them embrace the fear and terror they have in their cowardice and become the terror they like to enjoy blowing people up with. They are every bit and parcel brothers in color with their hero Bin Laden.
