We do take our football seriously...The same people who chastise the teacher would not chastise the people who would object to a person bringing an Iranian flag to a pro-USA rally.

Let me get this straight. You are comparing a kid wearing a football jersey to one of the most militant inhuman death-cult governments to ever exist? I guess you are serious about your football.

So the kid did something stupid. So what. Kids do that. But for a teacher to crawl in the judgment sewer with the kid is no excuse. This teacher was wrong to single out a kid, especially over such trivial circumstances. I hope they properly discipline this idiot teacher.

I knew someone would take this stand LOL. I think you realize(at least I hope you do) that I was making a point about symbols and their meaning. The comparison is valid from that angle.
The teacher claims that it was part of a class exercise related to his ethnic relations class. Was it? I don't know. It sounds plausible.
I never said I thought what was done was right. The teacher might have crossed a line and if it is determined he did he should be told about it.
