What about the (likely) majority of kids who just showed up for an education instead of a political rally? The principal did the right thing. Students should wear what they want, say what they want, and wave what they want ... right after the final bell of the school day.
This bears repeating.

I find MM's theses in threads such as this to be ludicrous, and tendentious. I think he comes here looking for trouble, and will make the most idiotic accusations against those with whom he disagrees to try to get a rise out of them.
Nevertheless, the remark about people from Kentucky was a gratuitous slur of the lowest kind. I think MM acts like a goof ball, but i also think he is sincere, even if merely sincerely deluded. I have more respect for him than i do for the type of member here who would slander every resident of the Commonwealth of Kentucky just for the opportunity to take a cheap shot.
