Teacher Takes Down American Flag In Classroom, Says It Represents ‘Violence And Menace And Intolerance’​

Portland-area teacher Gail Grobey removed the American flag from her classroom, claiming it represents “violence and menace and intolerance,” Fox News reported Wednesday.


Grobey removed the American flag as a protest against her school district’s ban of “political imagery” in classrooms, which includes LGBT and Black Lives Matter symbols, according to Fox News. Grobey also said the American flag was “the most political symbol there is,” and seemed to question if it should be banned as well, Fox News reported.

“I know my kids, and I know what’s best for them and what to do to help them feel comfortable. I took the American flag down in my classroom because that’s the most political symbol there is. When I see Trevor DeHart sitting there at those board meetings with that giant American flag behind him, it’s terrifying. That symbol doesn’t stand for freedom or justice or equality anymore. It stands for violence and menace and intolerance, and I will not fly that in my room,” Grobey said, according to The Newberg Graphic.

If I were the parent, I would pull my kid from the fucking school and look into how I could get a tax credit and put them in alternate schooling. Then let the school know why they will not be receiving those tax dollars due to my moving schools.

This woman is a fucking idiot. The American flag is the flag of this country. It will always entail the entire political process. That's just how it is.

Also, this woman calls herself a teacher? An educator? Bullshit. The point of school, or what school should be, is to prepare children for the world. I see no other purpose. Making them comfortable does not makes strong men and women. It makes a bunch of pussies that aren't ok with being uncomfortable, and going outside their comfort zone.

The world is unforgiving, but we can still make the most out of it being unforgiving by holding ourselves to a higher standard than the natural brutality of the world and of competition. That's the message we should be sending. That's how you raise good, strong people.

Till that happens, make sure you have your kids being taught by a real teacher who can build them up. Don't leave them in this cesspool of safe spaces.

“I know my kids, and I know what’s best for them and what to do to help them feel comfortable. I took the American flag down in my classroom because that’s the most political symbol there is. When I see Trevor DeHart sitting there at those board meetings with that giant American flag behind him, it’s terrifying. That symbol doesn’t stand for freedom or justice or equality anymore. It stands for violence and menace and intolerance, and I will not fly that in my room,” Grobey said, according to The Newberg Graphic.

First of all they aren't HER kids. She is a bit full of herself. She is transferring her liberal unfounded fears onto her students. You see, this is what really pisses me off. This is what I mean when I say I want to just be left alone. I want to be left to make my own decision. THEY started this war. THEY are wanting me to change my beliefs. THEY won't leave well enough alone. I will say this. G-d forbid I am forced to stop a threat in order to protect me or my family I won't for one minute feel guilt. Don't put me in a position where I have to do just that. Live your life and leave me to my own or prepare to deal with a bad outcome for you. Not much rope left.

Another bunch of nazis..

Serious question, why is it that so many leftist wing-nuts are teachers?

It is past time for not only dissatisfied parents, but also pissed off non-parents, to declare they are no longer funding this travesty at gunpoint. it is obvious that whatever good intentions were announced with forced taxation to support schools it is clear that the actuality has fallen far from the mark.

Corruption, abuse, incompetence... it's time for it all to just stop.

in many places school taxes are greater than a landowner's property tax. What are they getting for all of that money they lose? Why are school taxes based on the value of the property and not on the number of kids a family is putting through the system, or just a single set amount for everybody?

It is yet another government scam that needs to end.

At this point you can't really be a teacher or professor without being a left wing nut unless you're at a conservative school (most aren't). Join the english department at harvard and start promoting conservative ideals and see how well it works out for you. They are an echo chamber now.

I have a daughter who recently received her master's in teaching. Trust me even at a rather prestigious school they don't attract the best and brightest. And like every other campus in America it is a bastion of illiberal, left wing thought. Most schools have been that way for 40 years.

Anti-American education in the U. S. actually started in 1965, if you read any of John Taylor Gatto's books,...just saying.

If we shift more taxes local, and bring schooling back to the control of parents, we'd be out of a lot of indoctrination and duress that politicians utilize to impose their will and agenda upon us.

Many of them end up "teaching" because they can't actually hack it in the real world.

I'm sure there are exemptions (no insult intended to any teachers on here or spouses that are teachers) but someone once told me, "Those that can't, teach." I'm sure that is true for many.

Good teaching requires substance, discipline and work. A good school district requires oversight by parents who give a shit. When parents see a school district as a baby sitting service the slackers can come in and do what they want.

The actual fuck, lol.

If behaving is white supremist then I guess I'm for white supremists lol.

"I know my kids and I know what's best for them"...

Well, firstly, they're NOT your kids!

Secondly, you're JUST a teacher, period!

All these educators think way too much of themselves and really think it's their job to shape hearts and minds... Or indoctrinate the children to THEIR ideologies! Which of course is crossing a line.

I would wear a flag to her classroom everyday. Shirt, hat, pins. Anything to piss her off.

Is everybody here awake yet?

Fully awake?


I think I might look at some past threads, years ago threads, and show how many here were correct years ago and were laughed at a scoffed at.
