I guess this is what happens when there are so many opinions or standards
as to what is acceptable regarding human behaviour in a case like this.

First excuse me, "their holiday" WTF?
Apparently we've accepted as a society that 'hostilities' are to even be anticipated at school. Very sad. Still though, I want to see the ACLU and celebs involved as they would had it been 5 students told to do the same with Mexican flagged swag. Can't wait to see Shakira out there telling us all how it is so unfair.
What's next, during February only black children can go to school to avoid any problems with "black history month"?
