California teacher threatens to kick student out of virtual class for 'Trump 2020' flag

The teen was working from his bedroom where the political flag is pinned to the wall, his mother said. He left before the teacher could kick him out of class.

"He hasn't been punished for incident" why would he be punished?

Teachers need to stay in their lane and stop overstepping their bounds!

[ahhhmedia]

School is to teach students and to give them the tools to go out to be full rounded people. This teacher is creating an echo chamber for her students. She is not giving them the proper support to all her students nor is she providing a positive example

Would a Biden flag or banner ad garnered a similar response???

I'm not Trump supporter, but I stand behind free speech especially in one's own home. If you don't want flags in the background it should be specified before or after class instead of publically embarrassing a student.

Liberals in this comment section: "Every American should have the right to voice in their opinions"

Also Liberals in this comment section when they see a Trump flag: "Take that shit down now!"

So the kids couldn't wear a let's go Brandon shirts because it's a quote slur wtf

[lynnwest]

Highly doubtful that the apology was sincere. The teacher just apologized so that she would not lose her job and shown as the fool she is in public. Teachers like this should lose their job because you are supposed to teach your students how to think not what to think. Teachers are supposed to encourage individuality

You should see my university Zoom meetings. There's about 6 trump flags, a few don't tread on me flags, Blue lives matter flags, Vet and military flags, and the normal variety US flags. Its honestly amazing to see the support. I drive around my city and see Trump flags hung up outside peoples windows everywhere and its surprising because its a university city. If one flag triggers this karen I wonder what would happen if she had to work at my school XD

[rebelhollerboys]

I think it’s bull crap how kid got in trouble over a trump flag really this is American 🇺🇸 freedom of Speech freedom of what u can have !

[doriswalker]

these teachers need to be fired they have no right to tell people what to hang on their walls

[Tikolico]

the student would have gotten an A+ if the flag displayed was a pride flag... just like the ones Cali teachers seem to love to display in their classrooms all the time.

The is a era of the cry baby adults. Free speech in your own home is trying to be controlled. What happened to the America I grew up in.

[ttmagxo]

Not this lady getting on camera and being a proud trump supporter🤢🤢🤢 disgusting

[RoninIV_unleashed]

A question to ask the teacher: what flags she feel would be appropriate in her class?

[rubasubei]

Maybe it distracts other students or make them fight about it! I don’t see anything wrong with what teacher did 🤦🏻‍♀️
Parents need to remember what used to happen to them in school their days!!! I think old days discipline was much more strict then now!!
FYI : I do support Trump as a president!

[saturdaynightcrisps]

as the teacher should have. nobody wants to see a trump 2020 flag and it’ll of course spark a fight either way.
