No American Flags Allowed?

Things are getting weird when an Indiana High School senior is being asked to remove an American flag from his truck. 

Things get weirder when the school principal and the counselor explain that flying the American flag migh inspire students to fly flags that people consider offensive.

Now I don't know about you, but lots of things I consider offensive are being displayed in public schools these days, and the vast majority of them are being displayed by the people in authority. In many public schools you can't walk 5 feet without seeing a rainblow flag, a transgender flag, a flag with a raised fist, or BLM materials. Go into the libraries and you can learn all about how awful the United States is, and once you are done you can learn how to perform sadomasochistic whippings. The school counselor will whisper at you how you should go "no contact" with your family, and should consider chopping off your genitals. 

Of all the things that might be considered incitement, flying a flag seems low on the list. 

I think we all know the real reason Cameron was asked to take down the flag, and it has nothing to do with inciting other students to display "offensive" flags. After all, it is March in Cameron's senior year; if this were an issue it would have cropped up well before now.

No, it boils down to a somewhat different issue, as was pointed out in the news report above: lefties, by and large, don't like the display of the American flag. 

This shouldn't surprise us. While there are still plenty of liberals who are patriots, even if they have problems with some US policies (I sure do!), the Left keeps reminding us about how much they hate the United States. 

The big difference is that conservatives have learned to trust the Left when they say these things; most liberals still think that it's hyperbole. 

No amount of rioting, embracing of terrorists, denouncing of America's "settler colonialism," or any of that crap has yet convinced the average liberal to believe that Lefties really do hate this country. 

Well, folks...they do. They really really hate us.
