California School Tells Kid to Remove American Flag From His Bike

Stephen Gutowski | November 12, 2010

Is California even still a part of the United States? It seems their schools don't believe so. What is going on out on the golden coast?

I think Doug Powers, blogging over at Michelle Malkin's site, sums up this whole insane mess pretty well:

Substitute Old Glory with a flag from Mexico, a picture of Che Guevara, or a string of condom packages and anybody who complained would be in for a “teachable moment” lecture about free speech rights and tolerance — but an American flag? That’s going too far!

When flying our own flag is considered disruptive and likely to incite "racial tensions" we've come to a very dark and concerning point. Stories like this should serve as a shot over our collective bow. There are people in this country that don't love it like the rest of us. UPDATE: The school offers a very weak response.
