Changes nothing, the school admins acted wrong, 18 years ago or yesterday. The approach was wrong, plain and simple. A failed opportunity to educate kids. Instead what have they accomplished? Let's see, now instead of it being educational it is a big deal. Kids have learned what? The Amexs have learned if they piss and moan they will keep getting their way. The other kids learned if they pitch a bitch to the media they will get heard. So it solved nothing, if anything only causes more bad feelings and has heated things up even more.
It is just another day that part of this nation chooses to celebrate while others have the right to not celebrate it. The actions of the school is the issue and yes others above them are to blame, including the parents. I doubt the ones wearing the flags parents gave it a second thought as they got ready for school.... why should they?
