OK, they said he wasn't allowed to ride his bike while waving the flag, for his safety. Why do I get the feeling it hasn't always been zip tied to the back of his bicycle. But, rather, in his hand while peddling ... and this has all been misunderstood and blown out of proportion?

If you click on some of the side videos about it.

It was his personal safety from other students.

Recently they had a bunch of mexicans being in the mexican flag for cinco de mayo and american students gave them trouble for it. So the school's made a rule. Any students complain about any flag, they have said student remove the flag.

This is plain and simple. We have every right to complain about any other countries flag in our country. If you don't like something about Old Glory they can GTFO of our country.

In junior high we had to memorize the school pledge. I disagreed with it and just took the zero.
