Via JWF, this will probably be the outrageous outrage of the day. A 13-year-old boy has flown the flag on the back of his bike to and from his middle school for a couple of months, in part to honor the military service of his grandfather. This week, according to the family, the school told Cody Alicea to remove the flag … just in time for Veterans Day. The reason? Other students complained about the American flag:

13 year old Cody Alicea was asked by the school he attends to remove the American flag that he flies from the back of his bicycle.

I saw that. How ridiculous our teaching community is.

I am so thankful I'm not raising my children in that school zone.

Anyone and everyone who is offended by our nation's flag should just pack up and leave. Go away!

We need a merge in aisle 7 please!

 

[AllieBaba]

I'm trying to think how it's "racist" to fly an American flag.

Socialists/Progressives are great huh?

I just vomited into my mouth...and a few drops spilled out of the corner!

it's not about it being racist. it's about them having racial tensions at the school and trying to keep them tamped down. i think they went overboard. but honestly? i think flying a flag from one's bike is silly and you have to ask why the kid is doing it.

 

[boedicca]

Disgusting.

Flying the American Flag is Racist Provocation?

Only if one is actually a Racist oneself.

I saw that. How ridiculous our teaching community is.

Yet in our public school the kids say the Pledge of Allegiance every day.

We all have flags in our classrooms, and outside of our building too.


Hmmmm.............

 

[Wicked Jester]

Disgusting!

Welcome to the Soros/Obama new world order my friends!

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Who would have thunk it? Waving an American Flag in America is now "Racist." Thanks a lot Socialists/Progressives.

PS-If this was my kid I would say, "No way Jose, she's not taking down that flag off her bike!"

Hmmmm.............

Don't confuse Allie with facts, it gives her headaches.

 

[Granny]

Very believable, particularly coming from CA ... but all the more despicable. Honoring our national flag and treating it with dignity and respect should be "mandatory."

I have a feeling there is more to the story, since the only links I can find are from Fox News, Hot Air, and Michelle Malkin, and another website that talks about how socialism is evil.

I'm thinking maybe I would find a shop that could custom paint my kids bike in red, white and blue.
