U.S. flag T-shirts on Cinco de Mayo

Ok this as an american bothers me considerably. i know a lot of you aren't american and don't really care either way. but what if it was in your country and your national flag was banned in schools?

God i hate that state. it's a thorn and plague on the country. It hasn't always been but over the last 20 years or so it sure has been. Don't get me wrong i was born and raised in california, i didn't leave till i was 26. So it's not like i haven't been there and speaking as an outsider.

After going to the link and reading the whole story more of the facts related to the incident are revealed, though as in any other story I'm sure not all of the facts. 

The title you choose for the thread is also somewhat misleading. 

Just my thoughts.   :sun:

EDIT:  I see that the thread title has been changed by the OP.

I'm referring to the whole thing, not just the banning of the shirts. i mean the fact that things can get that out of hand and out of control. The banning of the shirts is one thing and should be something that needs to be addressed, but the fact that these kids are acting like prison inmates  shows a complete lack of social control over the communities and population. These are the kids that will grow up and fill what is supposed to be responsible lives. But instead these schools, parents, cities and state are turning our future inmates and/or caskets.

I'm sure all states have there issues there isn't one that doesn't. But it's just that so many issues come out of California not all violent issues but some that are just wrong. I mean we can go on all day about how money gets you anything in that state. If micheal jackson was still alive he'd still be molesting kids, OJ got away with murder, Mell gibson got away with not only drinking an driving but assaulting an office and the list goes on and on.
