Colorado Schools Ban U.S. Flag and Patriotic Clothing

Fox News reports that a Colorado middle school has banned patriotic clothing, including clothing depicting the U.S. flag. Similarly, a Colorado high school banned all flags, including the United States flag. Both of these bans were supposedly enacted to ease tensions over the current illegal alien and illegal immigration issues.

As far as I'm concerned, this is a new American low. If anyone at all, be them citizens, illegal aliens, school administrators, or whomever, is offended by the United States Flag, they can leave this country. I am relieved that the Colorado Attorney General has declared that the U.S. Flag cannot be banned. Likewise, the Colorado legislature passed a law that will deny funding to any school that attempts to ban respectful displays of the U.S. flag.
