What is going on? A 15 year old gets an incident report from her school because she has an American flag in her back pocket? Since when weren't Americans allowed to display a little sense of nationalism? Damn, many countries don't even feel comfortable waving their flag, we should be glad we can purchase the obnoxious American flag items that are out there.

High schools and middle schools were closed for two days because this incident has caused such a ruckus. Unacceptable. Forsaking education (which, by the way is getting worse by the day here) because kids are upset over not being able to wave an American flag at school? These kids shouldn't even need a reason to be angered by this. I smell communism.... (well, that is a little extreme, but you get the picture.)
