Texas Middle School Students Suspended for Two Days for Taking Confederate Flag Selfies

Round Rock, TX — Seven middle school students have been suspended for two days for taking a picture of themselves with a Confederate flag.

According to The Austin Statesman, a parent of one of the 14-year-olds who was suspended might sue the Round Rock school district over it:

Andrew Birdwell said staff at Ridgeview Middle School had no right to give a two-day suspension to his son, and that he and his son deserve an apology.

“Any and all teachers would find out, hopefully … the school made a mistake and know my son isn’t a racist,” Birdwell said.

The school district released a statement Wednesday stating there were a series of incidents at school involving a group of students posing with a Confederate flag and speaking “hateful language.” The district would not comment any further to ensure the privacy of students, the statement reads.

“Please know that Ridgeview and Round Rock ISD value student voice; however, the top priority for all schools, including Ridgeview, is to provide every student with a safe and secure learning environment. Safety and security is contingent upon a culture of tolerance, as well as student voice,” the statement reads.

The assistant principal found the picture after going through his son’s phone, because modern American public schools are like prisons where students have no right to privacy whatsoever.

“When I asked my son, ‘Exactly why would you take a picture?’ he said, ‘Dad, I just really liked the colors,’” Mr. Birdwell told Fox 7. “I called up there yesterday asking for a copy of the disciplinary action and [the principal’s] statement was to me that the boys were holding up a Confederate flag and that is a sign of slavery.”

And then there’s this:

“It was kind of tough for me to explain why he’s getting assignments from school with a Confederate flag on it, yet he can’t hold one,” Birdwell said.

Birdwell, who thinks his son was motivated to take the picture because the students are currently learning whatever version of Civil War history that school decides to teach its students, was told by school officials that his son did not say any “hateful language,” so the suspension was due solely to taking the picture.

History is being warped and sanitized in our public schools to fit a politically correct agenda, cursing our nation’s students to be dumbed down from being able to actually draw anything from its lessons.

What do you think these kids will learn from this event?

“There was nothing more to the picture,” Birdwell told the Statesman. “They weren’t smiling, didn’t look sad, didn’t look happy; just taking a picture.”

Two days suspension… for taking a selfie with a flag.

    Sue the hell out of the school district and the principal!

    • StevetheHun

      Principal doesn’t care. School district doesn’t care. The taxpayers are the ones who foot the bills for their stupidity.

      The problem is, the school district and the principal have authority and there is no way to make them responsible for their actions.

    I’ve never been a big fan of the battle flag of Virginia. It did look pretty cool on the roof of the General Lee, however.

    This shit is fucking insane though.

  • otis cambell

    It’s the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia. That is all. There were several 100’s if not 1000’s of battle flags flown on both sides during that war. GET OVER IT!

    • sunshine ✓ᵀʳᵘᵐᵖ ˢᵘᵖᵖᵒʳᵗᵉʳ

      Here’s the one I always think of as the Army of Northern VA’s flag although I guess it’s really Robert E. Lee’s flag when he commanded it.

    Wouldn’t have done that to a Mexican kid taking a selfie in front of a Mexican flag or an African kid taking a selfie in front of an African flag. The flag of Israel is literally an apartheid yet I bet that would be allowed to. It’s another attack on white people and their children, nothing more.

    Question: Why do white people feel guilty for the slave trade that was ran and operated by the Jews when only 2% of whites actually owned any slaves?

    • ReverendDraco✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ ᵃᶜᶜᵒᵘᶰᵗ

      I don’t feel guilty for the slave trade that white people more-or-less ended worldwide – except in Africa and the Middle East.

      Don’t know. Never have understood that and I damn sure won’t ever allow anyone to tell me how I should feel about my Confederate soldier ancestors. I was brought up to revere and honor them and over my dead body will ANYONE EVER tell me or my children we can’t.

    Sounds like the Principal and the involved teachers need a refresher in factual history, not just the biased perceptions that have apparently usurped actual historical basis and fact.

    Something they don’t teach in schools:

    A right is a moral premise defining and sanctioning a man’s range of activity in a social environment, and this right principle is that a man must never initiate the use of physical force in human interaction.

    I’d hope it would be the proper version, where Lee and company beat the hell out of Meade at Gettysburg, forcing Lincoln to fold his hand and let the Confederacy go!

    Who cares if the kids took a pic with the Confederate flag? They’d crap themselves if they saw my house as I have multiple flags and not just the battle flag but the actual Stars and Bars and the Army of Northern VA flag. If anyone EVER tried to tell my children that they couldn’t celebrate our Confederate heritage it would be a big mistake on their part. I have at LEAST 30 Confederate soldier ancestors and I am proud of each and every one of them. So sick of this bullshit!

  • Anti Everything

    The civil war lies started in public school long ago or that asshat Lincoln would not have a ‘Glorious’ memorial in DC, all would know the ‘Act of 1871’ created a federal corporation, all would know the government is actually THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CORPORATION and not an actual government. All would understand the ‘laws’ passed in DC only pertain to DC and it’s 10 sq miles.

    Enjoy the two days, you sure are not missing anything at school. Today schools are not educational institutes, but brainwashing sites.

    These tactics are wearing thin. Tolerance is being intolerant for what you don’t like? I think these young men and women should reverse this intolerance by wearing confederate T shirts at school and shout what intolerance is. The banning of what you don’t like in favour of what you do. C’mon kids give these 5 watt school “authorities” a lesson in tolerance. Demand these “authorities” tolerate your likes and if they refuse use that refusal to stop being tolerant of those that YOU don’t like.

  • amongoose

    So the school can now punish you for things you do outside of school?
    Do you have the power of recall in that district
    If you do, use it, if you don’t, get it and use it.

    Texas can’t seem to remember to be ashamed of itself. It repeatedly has these pathetic people and institutions harassing whites while expecting to make money off everyone else on all their illegal and moslum welfare people who are also enemies. Texas needs to be ashamed of its nasty self and stop before some equal or higher force puts a stop to it the hard way.

    “… Every man should endeavor to understand the meaning of subjugation before it is too late. … It means that the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the War, will be impressed by all influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, our maimed veterans as fit objects for their derision. …to establish sectional superiority and a more centralised form of government, and to deprive us of our rights and liberties.” –Major General Patrick Cleburne, C.S.A. (Jan. 2, 1864)

    ” To you Sons of Confederate Veterans, we submit the vindication of the cause for which we fought; to your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldiers’ good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles he loved and which made him glorious and which you also cherish.

    Remember, it is your duty to see that the true history of the south is presented to future generations.” —Lt. General Stephen Dill Lee, Commander General, United Confederate Veterans, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1906

    In December of 1860 and January of 1861, many newspapers across the North and Midwest echoed Greeley’s sentiments to “let the South go in peace.” But the bankers, railroads and shippers soon informed the press of the financial implications of southern independence.

    The editorial tune changed dramatically in February and March of 1861 to “No, we must NOT let the South go,” and “what about our shipping?” and “what about our revenue?” As the New York Times noted on March 30th,“We were divided and confused until our pockets were touched.” [ See Northern Editorials on Secession, Howard C. Perkins, ed., 1965

    Nothing to do with “Slavery”

    “We show our sympathy with slavery by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free.” —Secretary of State William Seward

    “The Union government liberates the enemy’s slaves as it would the enemy’s cattle, simply to weaken them in the conflict. The principle is not that a human being cannot justly own another, but that he cannot own him unless he is loyal to the United States.” –London Spectator, 1862

    Until or unless the United States Congress passes legislation outlawing the Confederate flag and the President signs off on it and 181 days pass from that act so it becomes law…..these kids have a nice fat lawsuit on their hands against the school district. Compensation should factor in lifelong financial impact nowadays of a school suspension record.
