Someone help me out here. Is this love, hate, tolerance, or intolerance?

Alford had recently posted a photo on her Facebook page showing her daughter celebrating her birthday in late December at a Texas Roadhouse restaurant. In the photo, the girl is wearing a sweater featuring a rainbow design and sitting by a colorful, rainbow-themed cake.

Alford said her appeal was denied. She said Jacobson told her the cake and the sweater "just kind of represents gay pride" and that Alford "should have refused the cake."
I’m not taking sides but you neglected to mention that she was already on probation for two years of continuous violations of the school’s student code of conduct, most recently bringing juul pods to school.

Interesting.
So they were ok with juul pods but not the color combo of her cake?
Why did it take the cake to get expelled?

The rainbow colored cake was what caused her expulsion.

Following the meeting, Alford said everyone agreed that her daughter "would be on probation."
"Any other behavior issues could cause her to be expelled," Alford said. "Since October, there have been no disciplinary issues. There have been no academic issues. There has been nothing."
According to Whitefield Academy's parent/student handbook, high school students may face expulsion "when there is a serious departure from the school's guidelines" for student conduct.
A section on student behavior says Whitefield's "biblical role is to work in conjunction with the home to mold students to be Christ-like."
"On occasion, the atmosphere or conduct within a particular home may be counter or in opposition to the biblical lifestyle the school teaches. This includes, but is not limited to, sexual immorality, homosexual orientation or the inability to support Biblical standards of right and wrong," the handbook states.
As previously mentioned, she was under probation at the time.
No, she was on probation. A rainbow colored birthday cake was too much for that "Christian" school!
