Students Choose a Patriotic Theme For Dance…So Their School Cancels It Because It’s ‘Offensive’

[SAYIT]

Well, I've said it, written about it, and firmly believe it, "This once great nation is going to hell in a hand basket, rapidly". This story is nothing short of pathetic. America had better wake up, and fast. When we can't celebrate who we are, and what we stand for as a people, and as a nation, it speaks to the sad shameful state this country has fallen into. How could we have allowed this once great nation to fall into the depths of anti-Americanism, anti-heritage, anti-founding principles, and anti-free people...

How? Out-of-control loony leftist PC police who fall all over themselves and each other trying to "prove" they are concerned people. As a kid we had no special car-seats, no special protective equipment, no special classes for special kids. We dove from diving boards, rode our bikes, climbed trees and drank from the stream in the park or from the end of a hose. We swam in lakes and played tackle football in the snow. We fell down, picked ourselves up, brushed off the dirt and got right back to serious play time.

A high school has outraged students and their parents alike by refusing to allow kids to perform a dance routine titled “American Pride.”

Why? Because it is “too American” and thus “insensitive” to other nations.

And the school that just did this is in Lexington, Massachusetts — the very birthplace of the American Revolution, where the very first battle for American independence was fought.
Well, only i think that it's direct discrimination of all American people?
When people forget about their history, not because of their stupidity, but because they don't wanna hurt somebody...
How pride and history of country can be "insensitive"... Maybe you can tell me?

The Soviet Socialist Republic of Massachusetts is a disgrace to the rest of America.

 

[Roadrunner]

Being American is offensive?

Damn, don't you read the Leftwingers here?

 

[Roadrunner]

Being American is offensive?

To white liberals, yes.

It is chic, like voting for Obama for his skin color.

The Boston Globe just dove off the cliff (without a parachute), endorsing a hometown socialist who has vowed (with good reason) not to run:

This is the canned response they are sending out:

There has been some confusion in the media.
Junior/Senior Dance on April 10, 2015

The LHS junior/senior dance was never canceled and the theme has not changed. Because we are a community that is diverse and welcomes students from around the world, we had some discussion around the theme’s title. The dance will take place, as scheduled, on April 10th, and we are proud to support all of our students and the theme of American Pride.

on behalf of the LHS Administrative Team

Thank you for your concern

Evidently these moon bats still don't recognize why people are upset. Why was there even a conversation about the theme?

"American pride" is often confused with "American indoctrination"...

In a dance? Idiot.

I never said that now did I? ^_^

Really?

Is the may day parade 'insensitive to other nations'? Victory Day 9 May - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Whoever tried to ban an 'American Pride Dance', must have no clue about world history, not just American, but French too.

Rightwingnut faux rage is played out.

And if you read, it was nonsense anyway.

It was parents and students in Massachusetts who got the stupid decision reversed.

That's all it should have been, yes, but the ignorance of the school administrators turned it into something much more, but you already knew that.

 

[LoneLaugher]

In my experience, none of these stories that nutters love to get freaked out about are ever as they are presented by the thread titles.

We get one or two of these every week. Some school admin or town council bans something or promotes something that.....on it's face...seems crazy. But...when one looks into it....the story has an explaination that isn't nearly as bad as the OP wants you to believe. Sometimes....it's a complete fabrication.

Our nutters never fail to hop on, though. Throwing their dopey opinions out there without knowing the facts.....and not caring that they do to know the facts. Indeed....reveling in their ignorance.

It is the least attractive thing about being a member at the USMB. The realization that there are so many idiots who also hang out here.

OK.....on to the next outrage!

You should really demonstrate that you are sincere in your disgust by getting the fuck out and never coming back.
