Student Makes His ENTIRE Truck A US Flag After School Told Him Not To Fly One

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?

Yes, good job! And they couldn’t BUY the kind of free advertising they’ll be getting now.

They’ll be inundated with work. Good.

The CGI company is 30 miles from Cameron’s town. Just guessing here, but maybe CGI sent the truck to pick up his vehicle in St. Leon, Indiana, take it to their shop Cincinnati to apply the wrap, and then return it to him.

I could see not kowtowing, but why would you want to tow cows? What type of tow truck would you use?

Why is it on a tow truck?

Or, maybe because it's a Dodge.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
