Nothing wrong about allowing students to form a club, advertising the club, fund raising for the club or being listed in the student handbook.

Does the ruling threaten you?
I remember joining a Christian club in high school and was told to disband.

Flying political flags in the classroom, other than the state and national flag, needs to be banned. Otherwise, allow ANY flag to be flown in class, including nazi, confederate, ISIS, etc, flags. In for a penny, in for a pound. Should the kiddies be allowed to have a nazi club as well? A confederate club? How about a BDSM club? Give me one good reason sex should be a part of academics in high school. We're already nearly dead last in education throughout the world. How about getting back to academics in school? China and Russia are turning out engineers, scientists, etc, and we are turning out morons who are obsessed with sex and race.

School should have NEVER allowed such filth to begin with, they stupidly opened the door when they allowed them to form the club in the first place.

Pride flags, along with all other political statements, have NO place in the classroom.

if you allow a rainbow flag then you should allow a confederate flag and allow a confederate club

Usually that is the case of someone being unwilling to acknowledge their true self and are threatened by seeing things like this.

Absolutely. I don't like broccoli.

I must secretly identify as broccoli.

LMK when broccoli is added to the 784 genders. So I can declare my gender as 'broccoli'.



One of the stupidest and most pointless and patently false arguments ever made. So dumb. So false. Retire it already.

I (should) have a say in how my tax dollars are spent.
Research shows that students who engage in sports and clubs at school also work harder and get better grades than the stoners whose idea of school socializing is sneaking a few smokes together out behind the school dumpster.

So unless you’re talking Texas high school football level of budget, they’re actually pretty cheap and cost-effective programs for increasing academic achievement

Then why not all flags? How about Polish pride, French pride, Red Sox Nation pride, Girl Scout Pride. How about the Navy, Army, or how about BLUE LIVES Matter.
