Students and members of the community are waving American flags at a South Carolina high school to support a teen who was told by an administrator to remove an American flag from his truck. The school says having a large flag on a car is a safety issue.

Good job, young man!

You know their are kids now who are so shaped as to have no patriotism at all, and if they do have it, maybe from home, they have no courage to show it, as Peyton did. They wouldn’t want to stand out from the dumbed down crowd around them.

This shaping is why America has finally become so compliant, so cooperative they can no longer possibly keep their country, but by the grace of God, and even He is ashamed of us.

She had a video of the “parade” with the yells & cheers. They interviewed a vet, and he was hostile about the student being denied flying it. This has been my “feel good” story of the day (saw it a Lucianne.com this morning).

I wonder if these kids are descended from old Patriot stock. York, South Carolina was the site of a turning point in the Revolutionary War.

For over a month in 1780 elements of Banastre Tarleton’s British force, a detachment of 115 Loyalists led by Capt. Christian Huck, roamed the South Carolina countryside terrorizing Patriot civilians, burning homes and threatening women.

Patriot militia officers began assembling their men with the idea of halting the British. 250 Patriot militia rode through the night of July 11th and caught Huck’s unsuspecting British forces at dawn at Williamson Plantation. In a battle lasting about an hour 25 to 50 British were killed, including Huck, and many more were wounded and captured. My ancestor Thomas Carroll is given credit for killing Huck.

Although this was a small battle it had the effect of galvanizing support for the Patriot cause and it was followed in short order by the larger Patriot victories at King’s Mountain and Cowpens. The British were now in for a hard fight and began chasing the Patriot army north in the Race to the Dan.

After school, Robinson drove home, re-mounted the flags, and decided that he was not going to allow anybody to mess with his truck, or his patriotism. He posted a photo of the American flag in his truck on social media with the promise: “Still flying, and it ain’t coming down.”

Hallelujah!

On Wednesday, May 13, he was pulled from class and sent to meet an administrator in the parking lot, where he discovered his flags had been removed and placed in the bed of his truck. He was told by school officials, “Do not return to school with these flags.”

The"Officials" who got into his truck... these worm-like Obama loving anti-American arses need to be charged with vandalism, and fired.
