Students at Fruita Monument High School in Colorado launched a patriotic rebellion last week after school officials banned all flags in the school parking lot, including the American flag. The order to prohibit flags came after Fruita Monument senior Colt Chatfield was told he couldn’t fly a Confederate flag, which school leaders deemed offensive to others, the school’s principal told KKCO-TV.
“They said we can’t fly a Mexican flag, Confederate flag, American flag, any flag at all,” senior Paxton Streeter told KKCO. Another senior, Keegan Bogart, told KKCO that the school was prepared to take action against students who violated the ban: “My buddy was kicked out for having [a flag] in his truck, and they threatened to expel Colt Chatfield for it, and they told all seniors that they would not walk [in graduation] if we continued to display flags in the school’s parking lot.” READ MORE

Fly the New Zealand flag
Last time I checked, Colorado is a state in the United States of America. Therfore the flags that should fly at schools in the state of Colorado must be one or both of the following: the Stars and Stripes flag of the United States of America, and the flag of the State of Colorado. How dare they denigrate the right of an American school to fly an American flag. This has gone too far – this is not freedom, nor is it politically correct. It’s pandering to separatists. God Bless America – and for God’s sake start standing up for the rights of Americans.
Totally agree. We are being made afraid to be proud of who we are,in our own country!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! If you don’t like who we are, get out! You don’t belong here!
Colorado…YOU OFFEND EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN!
