Leave the purse at home, cracka."I'm at the point where I really don't know what to do"
Dallas NewsTwo North Texas high school students who were kicked out of class for displaying rebel flags vow to take their fight to court. They said they are proud of their heritage, but Burleson High School education officials maintain the Confederate symbol is offensive.
<snip>
"Principal comes up and says, 'You've got to get rid of your purse... it's racist,'" Thomas said.
Burleson ISD spokesman Richard Crummel said it's simply a matter of violating the school's dress code. "We don't want students to wear anything that might cause a disruption, and that symbol has done that in the past," Crummel said.

"I'm hiring a lawyer," Thomas said. "I'm going all the way with it, because I think it's wrong."
Ashley and Aubrie McAllum both received purses patterened after the Confederate battle flag from their parents for Christmas. Both girls decided to take their presents to school.....
Ashley was sent home three times this week. "I'm at the point where I really don't know what to do," she said. "I want to keep going to school and get my education, but this is my life. I was born and raised in the South. Why is the flag so bad?"
Burleson High School, with a 2,200 student enrollment, is about 90 percent white, 8 or 9 percent Hispanic. There are very few African Americans.

Well, they weren't expelled... they were sent home.
I know, it's a hopeless situation...."I'm at the point where I really don't know what to do," she said.
stupid kids
That flag is a symbol of treason.
morons
Ok...so my grandfather was drafted by the Nazi army and forced to fight for Hitler...does that mean my little girl (when she was actually little...jesus I'm old) should have had a swaztika purse?
What would she say..."it's heritage not hate"?
So much for freedom of speech.
Damn, you don't know why it's offensive damn........moron kids. KKK.........
"freedom of speech"
... is actually not the right to express anything about anything anywhere.
Schools are not democracies, nor are corps, the military, etc.
Is treason protected under by FOS.
at that time of the US slavery was legal and an accepted way of life. so the people of the south rose up against what they thought was wrong doings. they decided they didnt want to be a prt of the US anymore and wanted thier own country.
it would eb the same way as if the govt all of a sudden came out and said, ok everyone who is black report to you city hall, youre all slaves again.
the confederacy was a group of states and individuals fighting for their way of life and what they believed in. just bc we now feel that slavery is wrong doesnt mean that back then they did.
let them wear the damn purses, if they start showing signs of racism, and a ing flag is not, then start punishing them.
im so sick and tired of how ing pansified america is becoming. dont make anyone made or offend them bc they might cry. that, step up, be aman and stop crying everytime something doesnt go your way. maybe if we didnt raise our kids to be pussies we would have won the war in iraq by now.
Yes, they should also use the N word because they did that all the time back then. Bring back lynchings, too. Good times. I don't see why everyone gets so fussy about the Klan -- they were just trying to keep their way of life, right?
why are white people so in nuts
You're obviously overreacting man.
I mean, crosses are good, right?
Fire is good -- won't get far without fire....
Put them together and it's double good -- why folks buggin?
So we lose our cons utional rights when we step on public property? Great wisdom, Chief.
"So we lose our cons utional rights when we step on public property?"
Organizations have the right and power to define the rules of behavior, so, yes, becoming a member of those orgs very often means giving up rights like free speech. There are real and legal limits on student behavior defined by public schools.
Do you see any Generals camping out in front of dubya's ranch with Cindy Sheehan? or otherwise campaigning against dubya?
Do you see members of Hagee's mega "church" camping out in front of his facility protesting his+wife's $2M+ salaries, and still being allowed into church?
Great ignorance, .

Considering how no charges of treason were brought to anyone, that's an erronious statement.
Also this is stupid, how many people have been killed in the name of christianity? Let's start banning crosses on jewelry to. This is ing stupid and this PC America crap is pissing me off.
are yall ing re ed?
free speech has never been extended to schools
and im the biggest aclu nut on this
the same reason I couldnt wear my danzig lucifuge shirt in 8th grade
but this actually makes sense
those stupid es would deserve to get beaten within an inch of their lives
if they want to wear it on main street fine
but you cant
in school
I agree, but they should get their ass kicked so they'll learn. They should have the right to get their ass kicked.
Im suprised none of the pro confedrate purses even responded to what i posted.... i dont see the difference in a swaztika and a confederate flag, do you?
well there is
but it doesnt matter
yeah but these days if you get your ass kicked im sure the person who did the asskicking would get sued, the schools princicipal and vice principal would be sued, the city would be sued, the school district would be sued and so on and so forth.......
all im saying is they stood up for what they believed in and their way of life dumbasses.
the klan was about straight racism. and also the klan came about after slavery was made illegal. holy i hate stupid people.
you know what, people who wear baggy pants and shirts that hang down to their ing ankles piss me off and offend me. i think they should be sent home.
