The Right To Rise: http://www.autoblog.com/2015/05/15/school-us-flag-truck/ Peyton Robinson, a high school senior in South Carolina, was recently told by a school administrator that he couldn't fly large American and POW-MIA flags from the back of his pickup truck. However, once Robinson started posting about the incident online, it didn't take long for a social media campaign and demonstration to force a change in policy. Robinson claimed that the problems started when a school administrator asked him to remove the flags when he got home, but he found them unbolted in the truck's bed at the end of the day. Officials there claimed that the banners represented a safety concern. "Anytime you get a flag of any kind flying, it creates a visual distraction," York Comprehensive High School Principal Christopher Black said to news station WBTV. That argument didn't stand up to the voice of the community or students at the high school, though. A protest on May 14 brought a stream of flag-bearing vehicles to the school. Vietnam veterans also waved the Stars and Stripes at passing cars. The public pressure forced the school to change its policy, and Robinson was allowed to fly his flags again, as long they didn't create a driving hazard. "I'm really surprised all these people showed up and I'm really appreciative of all the support from everybody, I had no idea it would get this big," he said to WBTV. -------- Liberals hate free thinking youth.

I get it but...pick your battles. And if you picked "patriotic flags on pickup trucks in south carolina vs school rules regarding road safety", pick again

Seems more like business for a traffic cop than a school administrator anyways. I also get it but holy poo poo that's a doozy of a hornets nest to kick.

They didn't even steal it, they just took it off the back of his truck and placed it in the bed.

Yeah, the Church of Satan really likes to put the screws to the evangelicals when it comes to pointing out their hypocrisy. I'd be interested in seeing them put up a candidate sometime. That would be hilarious.

I really hate that the "liberals" that they put on these shows can never effectively respond to that garbage. That dude was begging for a brutal tear-down and the best she can seem to muster is "well you're an offensive jerk."

To be fair she seemed to be literally shocked. Like, actually never expected an adult man on live tv to look her in the eyes and yell that she'd be happier at home with kids and women are clearly lying about being happy at work. I mean if I was on TV and some dude next to me just started going off about how CLEARLY as a gay I want to rape straight children to convert them I think I'd be at a loss for words, I'm just surprised she didn't devolve into 'what the gently caress is wrong with you'.

It's not even modern sexism. It's something out of the 1920's. Same with Chuck throwing out race science articles that were debunked during that same era. Like you said it's a really outdated line of thinking that most people have ditched because it's been proven wrong again and again. One wouldn't know how to respond because such a thought would be so idiotic It's like the Lewis Black bit on "If it weren't for my horse. I wouldn't have spent that year in college.". Your brain just stops and goes "Wait...what?" Keep saying it...if it's people like this that are the future of the GOP? They'll struggle to be a national party for very much longer.

There's a Op-Ed on the Advocate 's site about people saying the train crash is part of a gay conspiracy? I honestly don't know. I've just seen a recurring tendency of the RWM to take the most innocuous, harmless, non-political stories in the world and turn them into something political that make it liberals' fault. They do it with movies, music...you name it. Like a few years ago when there were crazy wildfires out west, it was supposedly because environmentalists have kept people from cutting down the trees. So, if there's no trees, then there can be no fires. That's like...um...I'm not sure what that's like but it's weird logic. It's like blaming book burning on the fact that too many liberals write books.

I mean, I think Michelle Bachmann, and Sarah Palin are pretty awful, but I don't think they would take too kindly to being told "Get back in the kitchen".
