News Confederate Flag Prom Photo With Gun-Toting High Schoolers Backfires

[brassmonkey]

why would you need guns at prom??? if any other people did this it would be labeled ghetto - (that is my opinion)


It's that time of year when everyone's Facebook feed is cluttered with prom photos -- but there's one image that's standing out from the rest for all the wrong reasons.

hotlinked
The picture circulating on social media shows eight students from Chaparral High School in Parker, Colorado posing for their prom photo with a large Confederate flag. Two girls are holding guns, while several others use their fingers to mimic a gun.

One of the girls in the image, who has not been identified, has apologized.

?It?s hard to say sorry when that?s the only thing that can come out of my mouth right now,? the student told Fox 31 Denver. ?I feel like there should be a better word for it.?

The mother of one of the boys in the photo said she was shocked by the image, and told the station that it wasn't her son's idea.

?When he got out there he was surprised that guns were brought out and the Confederate flag was brought out,? the parent, who was not identified, told the station.

She blamed other parents, who were encouraging the kids and taking the photos with the flag at the prom, which was held on Saturday in Denver.

?I think in their immaturity they kind of think it is a cowboy thing, but to have parents feed into it and support it is really upsetting to me,? she said.

The flag was never the official flag of the Confederacy during the Civil War, although its design was incorporated into several of the flags that were used. It was also used as a battle flag, and today is part of the state flag of Mississippi. But while supporters say it represents "southern pride," others believe it is a symbol of racism, and variations of the flag are often used by white supremacy organizations.

?The image is pretty disturbing, especially if they have real assault rifles in their hands," University of Colorado-Boulder ethnic studies professor Arturo Aldama told Fox 31 Denver. "Not to mention, the Confederate flag and its legacy of white supremacy, Klan violence and the Jim Crow South.?

I don't think it's a symbol of hate to everyone. I think political correctness has a lot of it to mark it as such.

But then again, the Swastika was once an aboriginal symbol of peace. And the peace symbol was originally used for British nuclear disarmament.

Means nothing to me, I've lived in California most of my life

Your OP SAYS IT'S A SIGN OF RACISM!


"Not to mention, the Confederate flag and its legacy of white supremacy, Klan violence and the Jim Crow South.?

Do you not read the racist threads you make anymore? We get it.RACISM Yes we know. Elevate yourself instead of pointing fingers man Jeeeeeezus!

[Bladewire]

^^ Was a reply to BM not Vendzilla. On my phone.

To BM:

"I was raised to believe that excellence is the best deterrent to racism or sexism. And that's how I operate my life."

Do you see me making threads on here all the time about how I don't have the same rights as my straight son because I'm Gay? No you don't. As a straight black man "if you're not another fake GFY paid nick" you have more rights than I do as a Gay man. Get the fuck over your fucking history. Others are dealing in real life, right now, being less than you are in the eyes of the law. But you don't care about us. With you it's all about being black, and history, not the current injustices and LEGAL DISCRIMINATION and inequality Gay people face. FUCK YOU for getting Sly fired with your bitching. I like Sly. If I wasn't on my phone I'd include the appropriate GFY emoticons. So this will due: ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

Just because Skin heads adopt the confederate, doesn't make it racist

I have very little respect for any group that hates, it shows ignorance.

I'm not going to condemn everything the hate groups use or display just because of what they feel.

I only don't understand all the Mexican flags we have around LA. If they love Mexico, then please, go back!

PS, I have a pirate flag hanging in my garage, doesn't make me a pirate

Are you so blind to your racism that you no longer see it?

Definition of racism: A person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.

Your threads always include black victims and/or whites projecting white pride. You obviously think whites are supiorior and that's racist!

Don't answer to what you do every day here.

Coward

The reason you focus on whites dominating blacks in your threads is because you're views are racist.

I lived in Oz for 5 years. The thought of flying an American flag in their country never crossed my mind.

I did notice in the Australian stores their flags are made in China too lol

I have an American Flag, it's made in the US. I checked when I bought it.
I fly it when I go camping. Use to fly it in my old home, but can't in my condo. Yet I still put it up for the 4th of July!

A racist's favorite defense is to call everyone a racist for pointing out the fact that they're a racist...but they're usually not the brightest people anyway.

If you have a hard-on for anything related to the confederacy, and it's completely innocent -- then you're actually just an ignorant bastard.

"Oh, I just like the flag's pretty design, but I'm against everything it stands for". Yeah, right.

California used to be part of Mexico and parts of Cali are still in essence more Mexican than American. Besides, just because they have pride for Mexico and fly the flag doesn't mean they have to live there. Brits love to post the Union Jack doesn't mean they want to live there. Do you say that they should go back too or is it just the Mexicans?

You do know that very few confederate soldiers owned slaves right? That the flag you think as the confederate flag was merely a battle flag and the south's secession was not just about slavery. Most soldiers that fought in the civil war were there to protect themselves from the north's advancement.

here was the first confederate flag


One of my ancestors was an officer in the Civil war, we still have his Calvary sword. It has a big nick in it. Another of my ancestors was an indentured servant, one step above a slave really.

If I moved to a country for a better life, I would embrace that country I went to, not cherish the country I left.
