You know what started all this? Those immigration protests where people got all pissy about folks flying Mexican flags. People started flying U.S. flags in response, because ya know, it's offensive to fly another flag inside this country (and man do I hate U2 concerts.)
By the way, those who didn't see...it's not just U.S. flags, it's Mexican flags that are also banned. In other words, don't bring in a flag and taunt people.
At the march downtown here (Chicago), I saw Mexicans carrying mexican and US flags. The idea is they love this country, but they also love their heritage. I've got no problem with that.
As far as this school goes and people/kids using their respective flags to intimidate - something went way wrong and as Yas said - this Principal messed up. These teachers messed up. They lost control and are now taking it out on the flags. :rolly
