An example of true patriotism: standing up for the rule of law

IMO, this won't end well for the Baltimore school administration. Not only do the optics suck for them but Jensen is both correct and was unfairly punished.


In a recent incident that has sparked significant debate over students’ rights and school policies, Parker Jensen, a student in Maryland, was suspended from school for seven days. The reason behind this suspension was his inquiry regarding the absence of U.S. flags in classrooms, which is mandated by Maryland state law. This event has raised questions about free speech, legal compliance in schools, and the broader implications for student rights.

Background of the Incident

Parker Jensen’s suspension occurred after he questioned why U.S. flags were not displayed in every classroom, as required by Maryland law. His inquiry was not merely a personal preference; it was a legitimate question pertaining to the enforcement of state regulations. In Maryland, schools are required to display the U.S. flag prominently, and Parker’s observation highlighted a failure to adhere to this legal requirement.
