This was not a good week for patriotism at football games.
Most notably, 49er backup quarterback Colin Kaepernick became one of the most hated men in America after he refused to stand during the national anthem before one of his team’s preseason games. His boycott may not have gone over well, but he does have a few defenders on his side — and imitators, too.
Football fans outside of the NFL are being just as disrespectful to our country and flag, even at American high schools.
Travelers Rest High School in Travelers Rest, SC, banned the American flag from its football games altogether this week. They say they’re doing it out of “respect,” but the appearance is anything but. It looks like just another attack on the American way of life from liberals who are too afraid to offend to stand up for their own country.
See why Travelers Rest High School banned the flag in the report on the next page:
For who? Not America!

What the FFFFF is wrong with people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doesn’t make very much sense
Out of respect he is banning the American Flag….How about out of respect you show all the vets the respect they deserve by allowing it in. I’m sick of people fighting and dying for that flag for it to offensive to pansies who didn’t have the guts to serve their country.
Lack of respect, that’s what you call it. And this$#%&!@*is in charge of shaping our children’s mind’s. God forbid ! .
Somebody in charge who makes up what ever they think words mean and then uses them as though they are the only adult in the room= LIB-.DEM.
for who??
Well if he did it he’s disrespectful
He should not be in a position to educate our children. Sounds like the principal is a product of the failed education system.
