Student suspended for using American flag to wipe hands.

A 13-year-old boy in the gifted program at Plaza Middle School in Virginia Beach served an in-school suspension Wednesday after teachers said he used the American flag in the school’s auditorium to wipe his hands after leaving the bathroom.
However, Moses Hinton’s parents told NewsChannel 3 the incident did not happen, and they believe their boy was harshly punished because he is the only African-American seventh grade student in the school’s gifted program, even though the school’s principal is black.

Cox said Moses told the teacher there were no napkins left in the bathroom.

‘mommy I was coming up the stairs and I lost my balance and I touched the flag,’


A 13 year old lying to cover his ass? Gee, that'd never happen.

Wiping your hands on the flag? Yeah, that deserves a suspension, as well as flag ettiqutte training.

Pulling out the Race Card... that'd never happen either.

Wait... "Oh beautiful, for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain..." Sorry, I was just overcome...

And we were overcome by your 16 months of missed predictions about Governor Scott Walker... but no one is singing your song anymore.
