Another Confederate Flag Flap

Three seniors at Bloomington Kennedy High School have been barred from their graduation ceremony for committing genocide. Well, they might as well have committed genocide. They drove to school with Confederate flags flying from their trucks.

The enlightened school government-run indoctrination center believes "that the Confederate flag represents hatred, bigotry, intolerance, slavery, civil rights issues and discrimination." Forget the fact that slavery existed under the U.S. flag for 89 years (1776-1865) and under the Confederate flag for only four (1861-1865). I mean, a public school is the last place you'd expect to learn anything about history, right? It's all about keeping up appearances.

Thankfully, not everyone is intolerant when it comes to the Confederate flag.
