I can assure you cblet3 the school was not concerned about the flag code. If you could also show me that Mexican flags were also banned on some other occasions because they would offend others, I would go along with your logic. Do you know of any?
Of course I don't. I'm not from there, nor am I familiar with the school in question. My opinions stem from discussions with educators and experiences my children and their friends had in their own schools. For example, when Candidate Obama came to my kid's high school, a few students with 'McCain' T-shirts were asked to turn them around.
High school student speech is NOT free. As the offsensensetives who will try to sue the school district in the article in question will discover.
