Perfect example between our points of view.
The American Flag is not to be defaced, period. Have some respect ffs.
You take that as non inclusive, nothing is wrong with children being taught about the rest of the world. It should be encouraged in respect of our own not while defacing our own.. Common sense Dear diary, today I was offended by a kindergarten class project.

Yeah, you have really try hard to offend liberals with kindergarten art projects. Like, I dunno, doing one based on a certain winter holiday that a vast majority of the country celebrates.

It's cute that you think I'm a liberal, or that I'm "offended."
You're smarter than this.

Lol, sure, just word it so it sounds different. They both have to do with the context of what the craft project is, so your stupid diary line is just... well... you know the word.

That's only cause Altima considers the flag "defaced". No one else does, so no there's no equivalence except for him.

And not everyone considers drawing pictures of Christmas trees and Santa Clause "religion in schools". There are just certain people who shouldn't be calling out other people for getting worked up over little things.

There are just certain people who shouldn't be calling out other people for getting worked up over little things. When there are multiple SCOTUS cases regarding " "defacing" flags made by children then we can start comparing.

Quote: The United States Supreme Court has determined that schools may celebrate the holidays and create displays as
long as they so do within “the context of the Christmas season” and the religious component of their display does
not dominate but simply represents one element of a holiday that has obtained secular status in our society. Lynch
v. Donnelly, 465.U.S. 668, 679, and 691 (1984). Under this ruling, a Christmas tree would be appropriate while a
cross or a nativity scene would not. Crosses and nativity scenes are purely religious symbols that have not gained
secular status in our society and therefore may not be displayed in public schools.
So, uh, where is this SCOTUS precedence for not allowing Christmas trees and Santa Claus in schools?

Anyone who gives a ***about christmas trees is just as loony as Altima for caring about flag craft projects.
By Altimaomega 2016-03-05 13:54:36
Thanks for pointing out the problem with our society.
People who think degrading the American flag is "loony", and don't care that the teacher of those kids has no respect for the flag and is passing it onto the next generation.

I don't believe even for a second that if a kid drew a flag and wrote on it "I ♥ America" someone would have thrown a fit just the same.
Outrage for the sake of it.

Yes. Both things are adding something harmless on the american flag.
By Altimaomega 2016-03-05 14:27:21
Since you are either being completely oblivious here or really honestly don't understand. I'll explain it.
It is not okay to put "I ♥ America" on the American flag. It is especially not okay to deface the American flag with other countries flags.
You going to the extreme of defacing the American Flag with "I ♥ America" is like me saying they may as well have put a Nazi swastika on it. (notice how I didn't do that)
Why you ask? Because they are all unacceptable. The American Flag is the symbol of our country that had been fought for since before your or my conception. This is what should be taught in school and why this is exactly what is wrong with our country.
Lack of respect for the country we live in and people like you have ZERO understanding of it. Most likely because you either refuse to care or have never been taught.

Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
