Ok, time for my input. As for not flying the flag in a public school?, maybe thats not a bad idea.....flying it on a pole outside the school should be a no-no. But to ban a confederate flag shirt a kid might wear? ...bad idea. This country is based on freedom of speech, religion, yada, yada, yada, and to put a ban on that is teaching children the opposite of what this country is based.
Now, if you ask me for my 'personal opinion' about flags, i'll say this. Even though my opinion goes against what i just said, i think no flag, other than the American, MIA, & Military flags should be displayed in this country. To fly any other is disrespectful to all the service men & women who gave their lives fighting for this country!! (That goes for Confederate, Puerto Rico, Italian, African, Nazi..blah, blah that you find on someones rearview mirror.) But again, this is how i feel, not how it is done.

.....i'm not even gonna touch the white/black issue !!
