They need to ban the alliegance oath, not the flag.

The number of idiots voting to ban the flag is absolutely jaw-dropping. The nation is clearly and irretrievably doomed.

I voted NO of course.
What is the story behind this? I couldn't find it on FOX.
Ban the FLAG. Why would ANYONE EVER CONSIDER SUCH A THING?

No. This is a lame decision. Teach the kids what the flag means, instead of banning it. 34% (386,104 votes)
Yes. The safety of students comes first. 52% (588,940 votes)
Not sure, but of all things to ban, the American flag would seem the least ‘incendiary.’ <1% (2,514 votes)
Other (post a comment) 14% (164,661 votes)
Total Votes: 1,142,219

Ahead of "No. This is a lame decision. Teach the kids what the flag means, instead of banning it", the first choice should have been,

--"Are you ****ing kidding me? Are you out of your mind? You should be fired from Fox News for even posting this idiotic poll."

That's the one I would have checked.

Am I in the Twilight Zone, or what?
I just came in and see there is a poll about banning the American flag in schools?
What the Hell is this??????
I know that America is going down the tubes, but how can this even be a question, much less a poll?
My God...It must be over. The USA, now USSA, is gone forever.

I can’t believe it! The yes votes are high. I wish everyone who voted yes would pack their bags and go live in a country they like better!!!

If I said anymore, I’d be banned.

I son’t get it...is there a story affiliated with this or is it just a stupid poll. What does the safety of the children have to do with the flag?

I actually thought the flag was removed from government classrooms years ago.

Someone has to be doing some kind of mass voting hits to this poll. I don’t believe it for a minute.

It is the American they built while we were sung lullabyes by Bushies and rinos.

There's an ongoing effort to ban the American Flag in schools? Seriously?

Y'know, I've said before that Public Schools are "Satanic", on the argument that their very existence is founded upon continuing violation of the Eighth Commandment, "Thou Shalt Not Steal". But I've usually considered that to be a bit of hyperbole on my part, albeit theonomically correct hyperbole, mainly intended to provoke fellow Christians into reconsidering the merits of tax-funded Government Schools.

But then Reality intrudes upon my arid, theonomic argument; and the Public Schools commit yet some new gross offense against Morality or Patriotism or simple Reason as to make my attempt at hyperbole seem... less hyperbolic.

Having already largely succeeded in alienating many American children from their Families and their God, the Public Schools move on to attempting to alienate them from their Country! Of course, being the spawn and servant of Big Government, the public schools did save the attacks on National Pride for last; but having already greatly undermined the bonds of Family and Faith, they'll now seek to undermine that one remaining loyalty as well.

They're banning the Flag in schools. Pardon, but WTF? Who's on "the Left" pushing this effort? What's the plan of attack, how are they going about this?
Good grief.

I'm gonna go read some more of McGee's book.

33.9% in favor is a sad showing.

FOX is allowing multiple voting on this poll just to get the hits. If a site like WND’s daily poll can manage to control multiple voting, FOX could too.

VERY disappointed in FOX. Also this poll has been up since the first week in May.
