Should the American Flag be Banned -- in America?

43% No. This is a lame decision. Teach the kids what the flag means, instead of banning it.

56% Yes. The safety of students comes first.

<1% Not sure, but of all things to ban, the American flag would seem the least 'incendiary.'

Are you friggen kidding me?

What the heck is wrong with this country????????

This is America, have we lost our pride? I’m speechless!

[DonaldC]

I guess we’ve already surrendered.

[fatnotlazy]

Bad enough a noisy minority caused prayer to be banned from public schools. Now another minority wants to force banning of our flag?

Oh hell no!

[TexasCajun]

Our children should fight for the right to be proud of their country, in their own country, every day, regardless if it is a made-up Mexican celebration day.

America & Americans First! bump

[OB1kNOb]

Many being led by the few. It’s gotta stop.

We just are not the same country we used to me... America is declining and becoming just a common member state in the UN.

[boomop1]

Lame fuck**** America haters. Try to ban black panther and Chev shirts and see what happens.

TAKE BACK THIS COUNTRY

[ScottinVA]

we used to me=we used to be

I don’t believe the results of the poll.

Its an internet poll, period.

I find that Fox polls are highly unreliable because so many liberal blogs and forums such as Dummies Underground and the Daily Krock have their polls targeted and they flood them with their mass responses ,, sorta like a flash mob . Freepers do the same thing only the polls are spread out amongst 5 or 6 cable networks and sources . I often find the results liberal pollers come up with surprising , because many of them don't look real good for the dims .

One thing for sure, if the kids don’t learn about our Country and our Flag, you won’t have to worry about their safety. Eventually, they won’t exist.

Remember in the 90’s? “It’s for the children”!
All of a sudden during the Clinton regime, the children were all that mattered.
Now those children are old enough to vote. We have a bunch of spoiled brats who have been taught that whatever they want,they should have.

Just listen to some of these crummy commercials on tv. “You deserve better”...Get the income you deserve,..
It was all aboaut raising a generation who will be dependent on the govt to “give” them what “they deserve”.

Just listen to the garbage on tv and you will see why we are stuck with Obummer.

[mcshot]

YES Ban and/or deport those who attack our flag. This is our Country not those welfare seekers and terrorists who seek to kill us from the inside. When the flag of our Country is attacked we are indeed at war - even if a CS school official started it.

[AFreeBird]

No frick’n way!

[ecomcon]

It’s been hammered by DU or something. No way normal people believe that.

[Russ]

What does the safety of chidren have to do with displaying the flag? I’m am fast becoming ashamed of this once great country.

[Carley]

A couple of years ago there was a survey of Newark, NJ schoolrooms.

No American flags. Puerto Rican flags instead.
