Will the school ban the truck?

After a student in Indiana was ordered by his high school not to fly a US flag on his pickup truck, he responded by wrapping the entire vehicle in a US flag design.

As reported by Fox 19, Cameron Blasek, a senior at East Central High School in St. Leon, Ind., was told by school administrators that the flag he was flying on his truck broke the rules and had to be taken down.

Blasek challenged the ruling and got it overturned, because you can’t order Americans not to fly the national flag in their own country.

Dozens of other students also flew American flags on their vehicles in protest of the school’s stance, and the story went viral, forcing administrators to back down.

However, the school said that they won’t allow students to fly American flags during the next school year.

In response, 17-year-old Blasek transformed his entire truck into Old Glory with a custom wrap.

GCI Digital Imaging in Cincinnati carried out the work for free, noting “We did it because we are proud Americans that believe that Cameron did exactly what needs to be done, stand up for our freedoms.”

Will the school ban the truck?

Google Street view indicates no flag.

I love that a company in Cincinnati stepped up to donate the flag-job on his truck.

There was a recent thread about a school that passed a bylaw of some sort saying that the American flag and the State flag could be flown at the school, but no other flag was allowed. No Mexican flag. No Hamas flag. No “pride” flag. Nothing.

Seemed like a darn good idea to me.

[[Then fire every communist/administrator and start over.]]

Exactly- tell every last educator or school administrator that IF they object to an American flag, they are communists and don’t belong in a position of authority over school kids

Fire every pervert teacher too for being a danger to kids, get rid of all the CRT material, and lgbtq material- those things are NOT appropriate for school lessons!

Agreed! It’s about time schools stood up for patriots and stopped cow-towing to the radical immoral liberal groups-

Wrong.

A little rural school district in a town of less than 700 has an administrator that wants to go to war with a 17 year-old over an American flag on his pickup? Really? Nothing better to do?

Even more stupid than the principal coming to the vo-ag shop to see how long our hair was when we put on a welding helmet. That was 50 years ago.

“ Yeah, the administrators need to go and probably the screwl board too.”

There is not a school district or set of school administrators in this entire country you couldn’t say that about.

“ And even bet they have sodomy flags everywhere in that school.”

Well, after all, that IS the national flag of the U.S. government…

I am surprised they just don’t ban those evil Pickup Trucks.

I didn’t even see a pole.

But not being in session is not excuse not to fly the flag.
