Coming to the US soon. We already "can't" fly the confederate flag because the left decided it was racist - oh about ten years ago when the south started going GOP. Now some high schools have been warning students that displaying the US flag is "provacative".
It certainly isn't in Florida, where it is state law (Carey Baker Freedom Flag Act of 2004) that a U.S. flag must be displayed in every classroom:
Bank of America makes donation to USF for flags in classrooms Michelle Carlyon, (813) 974-9082
TAMPA, Fla. (Oct. 6, 2004) - Bank of America has agreed to generously donate funds to the University of South Florida Foundation in order to comply with a state law requiring American flags to be on display in every classroom.
Bank of America recently partnered with USF to provide a total of $33 million in tax-exempt bond financing. This financing allowed for the construction of two new research buildings in the university's Fowler Avenue Research Park. In recognition of this partnership, Bank of America will be providing a contribution to the USF Foundation, which will go toward the purchase of flags for USF's 310 classrooms and on university grounds across all four of USF's campuses.
Bank of America bucked the age-old banking industry tradition of hosting a post bond closing dinner, which would typically only include key participants of the transaction. This innovative celebration of the bank's partnership with a client is representative of its commitment to help the communities in which it does business as well as leaving a lasting legacy on all the university's campuses.
"We have had the opportunity to enjoy a long relationship with USF," said Steve Raney, Central Florida Middle Market Banking Executive for Bank of America. "We see the donation of these flags as both a needed item as well as a legacy of our relationship."
"Over the years, the Bank of America has donated significant scholarships and endowed professorships to USF," said USF Foundation President Michael Rierson. "But this patriotic gesture is a proactive statement by them that's even more grand than the size of the gift."
The Carey Baker Freedom Flag Act, passed by the Florida Legislature in 2004, requires a 2' x 3' U.S. flag to be displayed in every public school classroom in the state, including state university classrooms. The legislation also requires a U.S. flag, and the official flag of Florida, be displayed on all school grounds. Further, the law stipulates each educational institution pay for the flags through private fund raising and donation drives.
- USF -
Yes, it will be here soon. Local governments will require the Mexican flag to be flown alongside (or perhaps, one rung lower) with/to the American flag.
Get used to it: this is the new "diversity".
