Here's 400,000 pounds of too much American flag for the school...

As James Taranto reported in Best of the Web, last week, those who hate their own culture and symbols are Oikophobes, the opposite of xenophobes. They hate their own culture because they dream of a borderless world, free of nationalism, with a one world government and socialism.

I too wondered if the security guard who started this is Mexican, or maybe an illegal. The latter wouldn’t surprise me.

We pay your salary! you work for the people, shut up and sit down

Your post needs bumped for the kneejerks.."I read this story yesterday. This is misleading.... The school did NOT tell the student that he couldn’t have the flags on his truck. It was a security guard who took it upon herself to tell the kid he shouldn’t fly the flags. The school officials, however, said that the security guard didn’t have the authority to tell the student that and they would speak with her. The school said they have flags all over the school and wouldn’t have a policy that didn’t allow the students to display a flag."

Then he should switch to the Confederate Flag, I’m just sayin.

Ask the geniuses what "E pluribus unum" means.

Do you remember when Al Gore said it meant "Out of one, many?"

I wish I could do that to my motor home. It's a ‘73, and has that corrugated aluminum skin that makes putting anything on it an impossibility.

"she doesn’t want anyone to feel uncomfortable.”

She obviously doesn't mind making Jeremy Stoppel feel uncomfortable.

Burning the flag is “freedom of speech”, but displaying it is not?

People living in the United States of America who are offended by the flag of the United States of America should do themselves a huge favor and move to whatever country it is which flag does not offend them.

Seriously.

Would we ever be allowed to forget if President Bush (either one) had ever said anything so monumentally stupid?

Here’s another one. You know who to ping.

Gateway Pundit is really at fault for not presenting the entire article on his blog.

[Chewbacca]

If the flag of the USA is offensive to the school administration then fly a Nazi flag, a USSR flag, or Imperial Japanese flag. Or to really offend them fly a flag from Mozambique. I am sure the picture of the AK-47 on it would really offend them.

Well I thank you for the correct version. I will admit to similer thoughts as those who wanted to run’er out on a rail...

[RansomOttawa]

Thank you. Post #18 didn’t yet exist when I hit Reply. Glad to see sanity prevailed.
