Sigh…because wearing the American flag is quite obviously racist and offensive to someone? If it is then they need to go someplace where they won’t have to see it so often I guess.

WTF? when do we get to call something too PC? Wouldn’t the people reacting badly to this “provocation” also bear some responsibility, or is it just the evil “flag wearers” fault?

“I was offended by what he did so I busted him up” is not an excuse under the law, lots of people seem to think it is but you have no right to not be offended by others actions. Sorry but it is a free country, so far anyway…

1. The kids were deliberately trying to get a reaction.
2. To the best of my knowledge, no student who was offended did anything except say “I don’t like your behavior”. No one was ‘busted up’.
3. I think the vp made a miscall, not out of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, but out of an attempt to keep order in the school.
4. The district told him off.
5. The parents made it onto the Laura Ingraham show in less than 24 hours.

I’m sorry, this is bullshit.
