And none of them carrying digital clocks.
You can’t fix stupid.
“One of the students, senior Houston Miller, told the AP that he will wear clothing with the Confederate flag on Friday too.”
Good idea. You don’t like school anyway…amirite?
“south western Virginia…” Read: Appalachia … these kids have more to worry about than what they wear to high school.
Yeah, like whose turn it is to fuck the family goat.

Appalachia ( actually a very beautiful place ) extends all the way into New York. It’s got Jersey and Penn as well. But since those are in the Superior North I guess they just fuck angora sheep up there. You know… high class sheep.

While we may not agree with the t-shirt’s messages, this is arguably a First Amendment violation. This is not “bong hits for Jesus,”. This is much close to political speech.

Looks like a gang sign to me.
None of these rocket scientists could build a clock from scrath with their own guns to their heads.
And because of social media we know who these idiot kids are (and their even stupider parents) and when they want jobs this will be what shows up.
The Courts give schools a lot of leeway on First Amendment restrictions, as long as the restrictions are not discriminatory or applied in a discriminatory fashion.

Here’s the ultimate proud Southern Heritage representative and a fellow who knows how to comport himself and display the flag with the dignity each deserves:
