The whole thing is ridicules. The flag is very neutral in appearance and even if it wasn't it's part of Sweden's heritage. Also the flag was there long before these silly bureaucrats-principle. The school's staff is turning their back on their own nation for some ridicules misdemeanor.
In the US most Americans are proud of our flag and show it due reverence.

The problem in Sweden is that their politicians are so afraid to offend other cultures. Therefore, the Swedes have never had the opportunity to have a public debate on immigration and Islam. Could be the reason why we are beginning to see the burning of mosques in Sweden

In Denmark, we´re not so politically correct. In fact, many Swedes believe that the Danes are far more racist. We´re not, we just have a lot more open debate on the subject.

There´s nothing so pathetic as people who become offended on behalf of others, especially when most immigrants do respect the values of the inhabitants of their new country.

In Denmark, we had a few years ago a big discussion about pork in some kindergartens. Because there were Muslim children in some kindergartens, pork should be taken of the menu The result - the vast majority of Danish children brought their own food. Today it is up to the individual kindergarten if they will serve pork or not.

If you are not proud to fly your country's flag, there is something seriously wrong.

The problem is Liberalism & the Liberal created "P.C." There are Liberals pushing the same horse shit here. At least one College was thinking of banning the flag just before 9-11. Shows how far we've sunk.

Yeah, I know, and it makes me pissy. If you don't like it, get the blank out. There's a lot of damn good men who paid the price to keep that flag flying high.

Liberal, conservative, black, white, male, female we should all be proud of the flag. Freedom is not free. Just think of the all the Americans that have died defending that flag.

Well said JOC.

I´ll carry this flag to the grave if I must
Cause it´s the flag that I love and a flag that I trust.
