Is Bolton mural art, or offensive history? Either way, it's history now

"too confederate". How sad the school actually listened to that silliness. I could understand if it was a legitimate complaint, like something being "too African". After all, something like that would glorify and celebrate the untold centuries of black on black slavery that continues to this very day. A picture of a statue is "too confederate" because of its color? PC insanity has hit a new level of dementia.

"Carruthers said the critic, whom he declined to identify, thought Bolton's clothing resembled a Confederate soldier's uniform and Tennessee's three-star flag looked like a Rebel flag."

This teacher (the critic) doesn't have enough "sack" to want their name brought forward. Not proud enough to take accountability for their actions.

And the school's administration are a bunch of worms for "caving in" to PC. Gutless maggots - all of 'em!

Last night some friends and I were rehashing some of these anti-everything-good incidents. In many cases only one whiner was able to take down that nativity scene, cross, etc. For one thing, what happened to majority rules, what's up with that?

Okay, don't call them the Ten Commandments, call them Rules of Comportment, but these whiners suck.
