If there's any Hillary supporter parents there, look out !!!!

I can only imagine the tactics their kids will use.

The school needs to consider banning brown shirts and glass bottles on school grounds !!!!

Sure. They could be.

Until those kids are on the record with the media mimicking political propaganda as this kid did, I cannot say for sure.

Does not change the fact this little boy has clearly been exposed to propaganda.

Who gives a **** if this kid wears a pro Obama shirt or a pro Trump shirt or a pro anything shirt its his damn right to wear it and these kids in these classes need to toughen up.

We need to stop raising physically and mentally weak kids who are ill fit to compete with the rest of the world.

Gee, good thing they weren't in school in Nov of 1963 like I was.

I was 9. We were sent home.

You know, politically motivated asshole that I am, I really don't agree in any way with drawing your children into this mess. My kids are not politically neutral, they're politically innocent. My son is 9 years old, and while I will admit that knowledge is important, I really hate the fact that next year he'll start learning about modern politics along with his history lessons. My kids do not watch the news, we change the radio when news comes on, they don't read the paper, and they have no internet access (at home and at school... all hail Waldorf's shunning of computers!) It's too much grownup horsecrap for children to have to worry themselves over, IMO.

That's what I said. He has the right to wear the hat.

Sure. That has nothing to do with exposing them to political propaganda. Doing so can inhibit free-thought and fact-based reasoning.

The only brainwashed folks are those that think 'make America great again' is offensive.

They didn't have a problem with it when Bill used it.

Well, I guess this school (Powers-Ginsburg Elementary School) doesn't follow their own published anti-discrimination policies. Or, these policies do not extend to the students.
At the bottom of the front page, in small print it states,

Non-Discrimination Policy: Fresno Unified School District does not harass, intimidate, or discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, national origin, ancestry, age, creed, religion,political affiliation, gender, gender identity or expression or genetic information, mental or physical disability, sex, sexual orientation, parental or marital status, military veteran status, or any other basis protected by law or regulation, in its educational program(s) or employment.

And it makes sense since it is named after one of the most left leaning Supreme Court justices, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

LOL

All the other kids and the school administrators are exposed too.

The violent ones are going to be the problem.

As far as I can tell the kid was not banned from school.

Reminds me of something that happened when I was in elementary school. My parents were for Goldwater so I was too. There was a kid whose parents were for Johnson so he was too. We got into a brawl over who was better.

Stupid kids, acting like adults.

Your parents were wise people, Phage.

The "grown up horsecrap" is only going to get more intense if the public schools have their way.
I think there'll come a time when parents will yearn for the days our kids only discussed elections and candidates on the playground.

WA Schools to Teach Gender Identity Curriculum to Kindergartners

The newly-minted health and physical education standards, released by the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), will be implemented in schools across the state for the 2017-2018 school year.

Beginning in Kindergarten, students will be taught about the many ways to express gender. Gender expression education will include information about the manifestations of traits that are typically associated with one gender. Crossdressing is one form of gender expression.

Third graders will be introduced to the concept of gender identity. These children will be taught that they can choose their own gender.

Fourth graders will be expected to “define sexual orientation,” which refers to whether a person identifies as heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual; they’ll also be taught about HIV prevention.
Children in fourth grade will be told that they can choose their sexual orientation.

Now I know where 'Yes we can' , and 'Forward' came from.

Bush's campaign never officially announced a campaign slogan.[citation needed] However, Bush's campaign made several bus tours bearing de facto slogans. These include the "Yes, America Can" Bus Tour[11] and the "Heart and Soul" Bus Tour,[12] which used the slogan "Moving America Forward"

Just change a word, and leave some out, and call it your own.

Some people would call that plagerize.

Well that's a violation of the kid's First Amendment.

Law suit?

Furthermore, what if Trump wins?

Are these "educators" (lol) going to ban his entire presidency?

I hope the district loses their ass to this young man.

They deserve to.

Who determines what's propaganda and what isn't?

The ministry of truth?

So, I'm supposed to "suck it up" when you want penises in the ladies' room but you can't get over words on a hat?

Maybe it's time for supporters of the first to use their second.

The ultimate irony is if Trump wins, they'll have to put a picture up at the school.

It's a sad reflection on the adult population of the country when our children, not of voting age, are used as pawns in an election cycle...

This must be taking "kissing babies" to the enth level...

Let kids be kids... and leave them out of the ugly of adult life...

That about sums it up.
