I guess the bigger question, why are we raising kids to not be adults and exercise their first amendment rights.
A MAGA hat, ACLU, NAACP, NRA should not offend a person. Maybe we should teach kids to sit down and have conversations about different groups within our society. Be an adult about it.

It is no different than someone wearing an "I Eat Meat" t-shirt to a meeting of PITA members, it is done solely to get a reaction.....

Both are wrong.

Poor baby! You and teachers at government schools find the President of the United States offensive.

How's that working for you?

I wish more people realized wearing a political hat or shirt doesn't make them patriotic.

Exactly.


And the hat policy is not focused on just political sayings/symbols, etc. The hat policy is clearly that only school colors.

She wants to be the exception to the rule. She thinks she is special.

What is wrong with wanting your country to be great? Why is that not patriotic? Why is the Left so self loathing?
