A group of university professors has signed a letter showing their solidarity with students who tried to ban the American flag at the University of California, Irvine because they said Old Glory contributes to racism.
U.S. nationalism often contributes to racism and xenophobia, and that the paraphernalia of nationalism is in fact often used to intimidate, read a letter obtained by the website Campus Reform.
Hundreds across the nation have signed the letter including some U.C. Irvine professors, Campus Reform reported.
"We admire the courage of the resolution's supporters amid this environment of political immaturity and threat, and support them unequivocally" the letter stated.
How those professors can sleep at night knowing their salaries are paid for by a bunch of xenophobic racists is beyond me.
On March 3 the U.C. Irvine student government association voted 6-4-2 to remove Old Glory from a campus lobby for the sake of cultural inclusivity.
The un-American knuckleheads blathered on about how "the American flag has been flown in instances of colonialism and imperialism."
Breitbart quoted an unnamed student who said the student government association feared the flag might hurt the feelings of illegal aliens.

(it is really short but in three parts)
It is about a totalitarian government teacher who uses trickery to compromise children’s faith in freedom.
Why don’t they just tell us what is NOT racist. The list will be far shorter.
You would think by now conservatives would have figured out this use of the word “racist” is just political rhetoric and a complete and total fraud.
I wonder how many of these professors have posters of Che Guevara in their offices...
Well if that is the case then I could not support such an evil government with my taxes.
The flag is the ultimate symbol of the nation. That’s why they hate it.
My Daughter is in College and is deep into “terrorism” studies etc...
She’s working on her 3rd of 4th degree, it’s getting hard to keep track.
I asked her if her Terrorism classes are being undermined with political correctness with regard to Islam.
She said no, but they actually use 6 definitions of Islam when they consider the “motivation” of terrorist groups.
She and I both, have only ONE definition.
The other students in these classes are nearly 99% former military guys.
Make them prove their assertions.
I see some undergrad engineering students in that listing. Have fun finding a job in Texas.
“Racism” has become the all-purpose explanation for many social phenomena which cannot be explained by the Standard Model.

I’m starting a class at the University of Houston this summer. Wait till they get a load of my t-shirts!
Mohamed Sucks
Hitler made great speeches too (with a pic of Barry)
I stand with Israel
etc.....
Keep them coming, make the lefties squeal
When I am elected ...
People like this will be air-dropped 200+ miles off-shore -- then they can swim to whatever country whose flag they love.
Other T-Shirt ideas.
This Ain’t New Orleans....

There's also a recall attempt of the six students who voted for the ban by a group, they put this out.
An example of cognitive distortion. In this case, they simply don’t know what the American flag is.
Fire them, they shouldn't be teaching our young people.

How about this idea: We ban federal college loans from colleges that want to ban the American flag from their campuses on American soil.
My point is this: If college students who want to ban the American flag from their campus no longer have access to federal college loans, they may start to appreciate what a great country that the American flag represents, a country that shows its generosity by granting them loans to pursue their dreams at the college of their choice.
