"Of course you know, this means War."

There can be only one response to this Tyranny: at the nect event, every single fan should bring an American flag. There should be a SEA of American flags drowning out the stupidity of administration in this case...

Vote Trump!

“Ignore it”

I agree. Bring a flag, wear a shirt or hat with a flag, ..carry water bottles with a flag .. anything you have that’s red, white, and blue.

They probably hoist an invisible flag for the anthem.

Agreed. Kids can wear shirts saying queer and proud, Stalin, etc, but heaven forbid they fly our flag. The Principle is a racist as how does she know these Hispanics don;t want to fly the Stars and Stripes too.

Principal Lou Lavely needs to be banned. It is the flag of our country. If foreigners or American haters don't like it, so what? If they are offended by our flat, then those people should not even be here.

South Carolina's Governor Nikki Haley banned the Confederate battle flat. Now the U.S. flag is next.

I’m from SC and it has been going downhill for at least 10 years. I won’t be surprised if it becomes more like NC. Glad I moved to Alabama

When all the liberal idiots started complaining about the Stars and Bars being offensive, I proudly started to display the Bonnie Blue at my house.

Why didn’t you display the Stars and Bars? The liberlal idiots would not have recognized it any more that the Bonnie Blue. Because what they were complaining about was not the Stars and Bars but the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia.

Are they playing ISIS? Syria? Iran?

How can you taunt fellow Americans with an American flag?

The state where Francis Scott Key wrote our National Anthem while watching the flag fly over Fort McHenry now is BANNING that very same flag at sporting events....

What I meant was this event is happening in the state where the Anthem was written...

I apologize that I worded my statement incorrectly...

Well, people aren’t paying attention .. and a lot of them LOVE what the liberal teachers are teaching .. so yes, it would be difficult.

The only other issue is - homeschool your child; or you could opt for K-12 in some states - which is close to home schooling - and allows for some group activites, except the plan can be adjusted to fit the child’s need - and the parents beliefs.

It used to be called “Alternative Education” in CA - and one of my sons was enrolled in it .. he really excelled; it was amazing.

Oh I did display the Stars and Bars. But amazingly one day my MIL came for a visit and the flag was no where to be found. She hid it in a closet.

I did not make a big stink about it because my wife is going through cancer treatments.

If someone is offended and “triggered” by the Stars and Bars, they need to get their own safe space... like the country they feel most comfortable in.

Smells like the school board needs to call ICE. Yeah, yeah, we all know ICE can’t find an illegal in a Mexican protest parade but still. Those Mexican students are in a US public school, they are not in a Mexican school. They ride to school on a US taxpayer bus and eat US taxpayer breakfasts, lunches and probably dinners. They have their health care, housing, food, clothing, utilites covered by US tax dollars. If they are offended by the US flag, then get the heck out of the US.

This school district needs to lean a severe lesson in who’s signing their paychecks. The US taxpayers own them. It’s time for the school board to be kicked out of office along with the administration and every principal, starting with idiotic Lavely.

Travelers Rest HS, with the flag banning principal, is 77% White and 5% Hispanic. Berega HS is 39% White and 27% Hispanic.

If one is taunted by the presence of the American flag, then he/she is not an American and if in the US, should only be visiting and soon leaving.
