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.
do I have to ask?
New dim slogan:
Mobs not Education.
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.
How many years has he been in the ninth grade?
stupidity must be painful.
wear the shirt, take the dirt.
dress like a rebel, fight like a rebel.
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.

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.
I would say he got more education in one day than in the past nine years. Tough love meets tough learning.
Good thing he wasn’t carrying a Bible or wearing a cross.
Ain't it great how liberalism works? Free speech, pro-choice, multiculturalism, Coexist, tolerance....that is, until you disagree with them.
It then becomes, get in their face! Tear this town down!, you're not welcome!
The Stars and Bars is the new Swastica.
1. Multiple people have written that wearing the shirt was stupid, and I agree.
2. Attacking him was assault and battery, and every thug involved should be charged with felony battery - as adults. Lock violent thugs up, whether or not their victim was being stupid.
As a child of the South I think Baltimore is probably not the place to wear the confederate flag unless you got back up.
Actually this is just outside the Beltway and down from the great old historic Martin Airport.
But I still wouldn’t be surprised if certain demographics held sway.

IF I ever win a huge Lottery jackpot, I am going to fund an ON LINE charter school type system in every state.
Get these kids out of the INDOCTRINATION classrooms.
