Woodruff HS Students Made To Remove American Flags From Vehicles (SC)

7 On Your Side was contacted by several upset parents who say Woodruff High School students were made to take down American flags from their vehicles on 9/11.

Spartanburg District 4 Superintendent Rallie Liston said four students arrived at the school Thursday morning with U.S. flags propped up on poles in their pickup truck beds.

The school's principal, Aaron Fulmer, confiscated the flags because he said it is against district policy to “draw attention,” to one's vehicle.

The flags were returned to the students at the end of the day.

What is wrong with America??? I guess we just need to declare that the United States of America is now officially a communist/atheist country and make showing any patriotism punishable by death.

America is no longer a country.

It’s an insane asylum.

From pledging allegiance to it, to confiscating it even from a parking lot, in just one generation.

Spartanburg District 4 Superintendent Rallie Liston and principal, Aaron Fulmer sure must be proud of themselves today.

Imagine the calamity they avoided!

We all know why this took place. It’s because there are probably a lot of illegal immigrant children in the school, and the authorities wanted to make sure they were not offended.

We have no nation any longer. Lets just face it.

What defective gene causes the people of SC to care so little about their freedom that they allow Aaron Fulmer to live among them?

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” - Samuel Adams

Well, Aaron Fulmer, you have now drawn attention to yourself.

I think a bigger question is what in the parking lots? Cars that are no fun, nothing to soup-up anymore. The closest thing is a 4 X 4 to an Old Muscle Car. The guys and gals that own the 4 X 4's @ a local school do this and take down the flags when they are on school property, probably so they won't get stolen or wet. One has a Tea Party Sticker in the window and one wears a Calvary Hat like Robert Duval. Yes the are a minority these days, the seem to hang together and IMHO are potential Freeper's. This Principal doesn't want them to range against their unified NEA approved neo-euro-socialist mantra. These 4 x 4's types are the Heterodoxical response to this one-ness. May they continue to "rage" in this defiant way.

May more kids buy 4 X 4's :-)....

Even the bloody communists are proud of their country’s flag!

This is brought to you by the multi-culti, one-worlder fascists.

It’s possible that the ban on the US flag is the consequence of the decisions necessary to ban the rainbow flag, the Mexican flag, etc.

Can’t really blame the school/school district here. There’s several decades of legal precedent going a the way up to Supreme Court cases that insist on all or nothing policies when it comes to public displays of things like flags.

Patience D1... This is SC, and flags in the beds of pickup trucks... The other shoe is going to drop, I can almost guarantee it - and I think it a fair bet that the shoe will be a size 11 sh*tkicker. I will leave it to your imagination where it will land. Suffice it to say that this definitely crosses the line between 'Oh, no!' and 'Oh, HELL NO!'.

Watch and see...

And a ride out of town on a fresh split wooden rail. Because splinters have a nasty habit of getting stuck in the darnedest places.

List of the most overpaid “educators” in South Carolina. No wonder they keep re-electing Linda Graham. I was surprised he wasn’t black though, as most of the rest of them on the list are.
