Bad Craziness in North Carolina

• Views: 1,883

Here’s the latest outrage to come from the moral equivalence mindset, as school administrators in North Carolina banned the wearing of the US flag—because they didn’t want to favor one flag over another.

Not even their own country’s flag. This is bad craziness.

Under a new school rule, students at Hobbton High School are not allowed to wear items with flags, from any country, including the United States.

The new rule stems from a controversy over students wearing shirts bearing flags of other countries.

Gayle Langston said her daughter, Jessica, was told to remove her stars and stripes t-shirt.

“Today she wanted to wear her shirt, and I had to tell her no,” said Langston. “She didn’t like it at all because I knew it would get her in trouble. Of all days, 9/11, she could not wear her American Flag shirt.”

The superintendent of schools in Sampson County calls the situation unfortunate, but says educators didn’t want to be forced to pick and choose which flags should be permissible.
