"The ban applies to all flags, not just the American flag, Stumpf said in an interview with 7News."

"The flags were being used not as a symbol of cultural heritage, but the flags were being used as symbols of bigotry, a symbol of hostility," he said. "They were being used to inflame different groups, and we're just simply not going to tolerate that."

To equate protesters who defend America with people who demonstrably have contempt for America and Americans by banning BOTH flages is a grotesqurie possible ONLY in the warped Liberal mind.

Those flags WERE being used as sympols of cultural heritage and this moron is to librally warped to know it.

If it was the snowballing anger and hostlity that actually frightend the principal, well, we all know the source of that. It was predictable and predicted by patriots and sages since the dawn of this Nation.

Bigotry? Hostility? The former is a strawman and can be rejected out of hand, but the latter cannot be denied. The natural defense reaction of a healthy body to an infection is inflammation. What we are experiencing is the national equivalent of a massive infection. While we are apt to tolerate low levels of infection without an aggressive response, there comes a point at which the natural defense reaction is triggered. We're just about at that tipping point.
