Jerks like this school superintendent and staff are what cause other people around the country to shake their heads in disbelief and demand the entire state and everyone in it be quarantined or incinerated.
Not everyone around here is like these turkeys (as the one woman being interviewed illustrates) but this crap is all anyone ever sees. I hate the politics and school systems in this state. They ARE run by Leftists.

I’ll bet they would let him draw and display a picture of Obama, though.

According to his father, the teacher told Frankie that his drawing of the American Flag would offend one of his classmates.

It goes without saying that the classmate would not be so offended if little Frankie drew a picture of a MEXICAN flag.

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,” Girard said.Flippin' marxist, American hating liberal!!

Does the school also refrain from flying the American flag outside the building so as not to offend said student?

"We’re allowing him to display his civil rights and be proud of who he is, but we’re denying Franklin those same rights," Girard said. Maybe Franklin wasn't displaying his pride in who he is, maybe Franklin is displaying pride in his country.
Is the teacher not proud of the country for which the flag stands?

In Massachusetts there is a flag in every classroom and the Pledge of Allegiance is said every day. It is state law.
This story makes no sense.

Tell the anti-american spoiled brat to suck it up. If he doesn't like the flag, he doesn't have to look at it. Where's the tolerance? Hypocrites.

This is a case where it would be best to use a [snip] and include the following VERY PERTINENT information:
22News tried to contact the Superintendent, Dr. Paul Burnim. He refused to go on camera, but told 22News over the phone that nobody ever told Franklin the drawing was offensive, and said the only reason it wasn't hung was because Franklin was supposed to be doing other work; not drawing a picture. In a statement he said: "Each of our schools flies the American Flag every day. At the Butterfield School, the Pledge of Allegiance is recited by students and staff. And the other schools recite the Pledge of Allegiance at least once per week."
It makes a WORLD of difference to include the school's response.
