Catholic school students kicked out of Smithsonian museum in DC over pro-life beanies

The museum staff allegedly mocked students and claimed the museum was a 'neutral zone'

The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum kicked out a dozen Catholic high school students and their chaperones for wearing beanies inscribed with pro-life messages.

On Jan. 20, students and chaperones from Our Lady of the Rosary School based out of Greenville, South Carolina, traveled to Washington, D.C., for the annual National March for Life. The group members were all wearing matching blue beanies with the words "Rosary PRO-LIFE."

The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), representing the parents of some of the students involved, alleged that the museum staff mocked the students, hurled expletives and claimed the museum was a "neutral zone" where political or religious messages were not allowed.

On Twitter, the mother of one of the students said the group was approached by a security guard who told them to either take off their beanies or leave the premises. Her daughter allegedly told the guard they were wearing the hats to identify and find one another in the crowd before they were escorted out of the museum.

Other people in the museum were wearing all sorts of different hats as they traversed the exhibits, according to ACLJ Executive Director Jordan Sekulow.

No freedom of speech in the Smithsonian. How disgustingly ironic.

I think it pretty much proves the left isn’t pro-life. Despite their excuses. This also proves they aren’t pro-choice. Despite their excuses.

Museums are heavily staffed by pedophiles and perverts. They were especially frustrated that all those Catholic children were being escorted by decent adults and were unavailable to see their “special” collections.

We visited that museum years ago (late’90s) and there was something about it that just didn’t seem right. Pre-woke I guess.

How many groups wearing BLM paraphernalia have been told to take it off or get out?

I’m not surprised. The minority and leftist takeover of the National Treasures were only the beginning. My visit to D.C. in June noted very few whites in the museums, the security, and trams. Most of these are godless ethically devoid Democrats that are managing our prized locations.

I’d bet LGBQWERTY-PERVY is allowed, perhaps even encouraged.

Any of the museums or the Library of Congress holding drag queen shows?

Who financially supports the Smithsonian museum?

It’s obvious that biden in his hate for life has ordered all federal institutions to harass pro-lifers.

Obviously the money from planned parenthood is more important than the fear of burning in hell.

I went there quite a few times when I lived outside DC. Some relative always had to see it, and I got stuck playing tour guide. It always smelled like week-old gym socks in there, not kidding. Place really pushes the evolution propaganda, prolly worse in the last few years, if possible.
