FAUQUIER COUNTY, Va. - A Virginia middle school fundraiser ended early after parents said Make America Great Again hats led to a disruption. It happened earlier this week during hat day at Marshall Middle School in Fauquier County, when students were allowed to pay $1 for the right to wear a hat to school, parents said.
According to a district spokesperson, “tensions between students caused the fundraiser to end early.” She wouldn’t confirm what caused the tension but did say all students were asked to remove their hats and no one was disciplined.
Nevertheless, the issue exploded on Facebook, leading to hundreds of comments. Nevertheless, the issue exploded on Facebook, leading to hundreds of comments.
“Wow! I’m sure this wasn’t an issue with the last president. SMH. Now all of a sudden it’s a problem,” one commenter said.
“Hats should’ve been for fun .. Nothing political or religious!!!!,” added another.
Friday night, more Fauquier County residents weighed in.
“What I heard is that the kids were bullying other kids who did not support Trump, which I don’t support,” Kaitlyn Camper said in a grocery store parking lot, located a couple of miles from the school. “I think the kids have the right to wear the hat, but they shouldn’t have gone to bullying other people that don’t like Trump,” Jeff Baker added.
The Fauquier County Public Schools Code of Student Conduct doesn’t mention political apparel in its “Student Dress” section. It does, however, say “any student’s dress that is determined by school administration to be disruptive to the learning environment is not acceptable.”
After hat day was cancelled, parents said students were given the option to have their dollar refunded.

Trump supporters bullying other kids? Really?
When ever you want to know what Dems are up to, listen to what they accuse others of doing.
Coming soon to a courtroom near you.
Careful what lies you tell about Trump supporters, lady.
Ask the Washington Compost how expensive it can be.
I'd lay money that it was Das Berniejugend brownshirts bullying MAGA kids.
Again, see my tag line.

I find that hard to believe.
“Kids were bullying those who DID NOT like Trump.”
Really?
Since when has THAT ever happened?
I don’t believe her.
If it did happen, it was immature and wrong, of course.
>Parents say MAGA hats led to fundraiser disruption<
No, it was snowflakes that melt at the sight of a certain hat that caused the disruption.
Any NRA Hats there?
That sounds more likely. A lot more likely these days.
Weasel words that media (of course) runs with.
The hats caused the trouble in the same way guns commit crimes.
Liberals are just plain stupid and tyrannical.
That sounds like a reasonable start .
Did the school give back the dollar?
I lived and/or plied my trade in neighboring Fairfax County in the 80’s and 90’s. I got the hell out when I saw what was coming. My buddy there sold his house of 30 years in Manassas and moved to WV when the Commonwealth turned completely blue. The whole place has become like a re-education camp. Liberals will continue to consume and destroy everything that was good about colonial America and the USA at large as long as we take the ‘high road’. Feck the high road. I want to start razing some some barns and lighting some haystacks again.
Die Berniejugend
I went non-gender, but I see that Die Berniejugend are actually ball-less mädchen...
