ok so this is really screwed up. Yes the story says the principal says it was fixed, but not until someone called and complained about it.
.... and he became aware of it.

SOME ONE NEEDS TO BE FIRED OVER THIS!!
Geezus meezus .... :rolleyes:

Well Bubbie, what do you suggest - maybe we should fire the guy who ".... promptly resolved the issue once he was made aware of it" ?

.... hmmmm .... no, that somehow just don't seem right ....

Perhaps we should fire all the students that saw it and did nothing ......

Yeah, that's it ....

We probably could save a bunch a money that way.

Did you not read it? it happend befor school opend.Also He says he only became aware of it after some one called and complained.The person I want fired is the one who thought it was ok to do it in the first place.If they can not find out who that person is then yes the prinical should be fired.After all he is responeable for what happens in his building!!Fire some one over it and bet it dont happen again.I dont care what you say heads need to roll over this.

Did anybody bother to look at the picture of the two flags? Click on the freaking picture to enlarge it! Obviously the staff on the American flag was broken, either accidentally or intentionally and replaced in the wall mount. Next time some :censoredsign: spay paints a swastika on a synagogue let's all get uppity and call for the head Rabi to be canned.

You don't even need to click on the photo to see the American flag is on a broken staff! And I'd bet whomever placed it there had no idea that they were disrespecting it by making it appear to be inferior to the Saudi flag, either.
Another opportunity for all the fake outrage some people can whip up effortlessly - the same way they read the 'news', sadly.

What are you Cheri a commie or somethin'? :mad:

Yeah you're right, let's get her. :D It looks like someone put it there because the pole broke and instead of no American flag they did the best they could.

I'm sure it wasn't intentional but common sense should have raised a flag(pun intended) with respect to the appearance and message the display might convey to others.

If the staff was broken, perhaps the staff should have been switched with that of the other flag or better yet, the other flag shouldn't have been displayed in the first place.

If the schools were teaching civics as they should be instead of a bunch of the foolishness they are teaching this wouldn't be an issue.

Or proper flag holder building in shop class...

I'm thinking elementary school is a little young for 'shop' class, but then, if the unions are done away with, child labor may well make a comeback - they work REAL cheap.
Just kidding, I hope.

I do not mean to bring up more crap. But why aren't they doing anything about obama taking off the pin of our flag, the symbol of our country?

Someone forward me a video that brought up some bad memories regarding obama bowing down for saudi but did not show respect to the Queen.

Obama has no respect for our country or any other country but his own. Now with this crap...our children are going to be confused having a president show no respect to others.

In my house, the socalled president obama nor any of his kind are spoken with any regards of respect.

You can bet your AZZ no fake outrage here.What the picture shows is an american flag with no pole at all neither flag should have been put up.The way the flags were hung gives the inpression that the american flag is lower then the saudi flag and this is wrong.Again this happend befor school was open The person who put the flag up should know better and show more respect for it.How do you know the person who put the flags up did not do this on purpose?You dont, you ASSUME it was a simple mistake!You handle the flag you better know how to handle it and give it the respect it demands.Some one needs to be fired for this disrespect.


Now I can not say what I want to say if I did I would get baned.Trust me if any of you think the way I feel is FAKE OUTRAGE YOU ARE WRONG.

Where's the outrage over the missing flag? There 3 flag holders on the wall and only 2 flags. Some stole the North Korean flag.

Where's the outrage that all 3 flags, even the missing North Korean flag were made in China.

Where's the outrage that school district is pushing for a $12 million referendum this fall and enrollment is declining?

Where is the outrage that nobody appears to question why there is a Saudi flag hanging in that school in the first place.

Okay, I'm done. Time to go to work.

Problem was addressed and fixed. No one should be losing a job over this.
