The schools and the teachers and those who run them, are a big reason this country is getting so screwed up,
Washington state school DEFENDS decision to ban teacher from flying pro-police flag because they say it's connected to HATE groups - yet BLM and LGBTQ flags can stay because they 'make students feel seen'
The superintendent for the Marysville School District defended the decision to force a Marysville Middle School teacher to take down a Thin Blue Line flag
Superintendent Pearson said there is a policy against school staff participating in political speech and that the Thin Blue Line flag falls under that category
A teacher was forced to take down the flag honoring her brother, a former officer with the Marysville Police Department over claims that it was 'too political'
The district said it was because the Thin Blue Line flag has negative connotations that can be interpreted in different ways by students of different backgrounds
The district said these same rules don't apply to other flags that could be interpreted as political such as the Black Lives Matter flag or the Pride flag
Pearson said those two flags can be seen as having a 'specific educational purpose' that aligns with extracurricular programs at the middle school
In response to the controversy Marysville Police Department said they support former officer Sullivan and will remain focused on public safety
