"This feels so draconian ... this feels so anti-everything," one board member said. "Anti-free speech, anti-free expression, anti-safety."An Oregon school district voted Tuesday to ban Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ and other"political" signs, flags and articles of clothing from their campuses.
"This feels so draconian ... this feels so anti-everything," Penner said."Anti-free speech, anti-free expression, anti-safety." “The quality of some of the stories that we heard should count more than just the number of emails that we received,” said Peña, who was wearing a Black Lives Matter shirt and rainbow headband during the virtual meeting. “And I feel like that’s not being heard. The students are not being heard.”
😞
ACLU? You seeing this?
I can’t find a single comment that shows the person read the article and acknowledges this ban ONLY APPLIES TO STAFF!
I think it's a good idea to ban both sides. Just like people couldn't wear trump shirts, BLM is just as divisive actually worse
It would be better to simply ignore them… This only gives them hate seed opportunity.
I still can't believe that real account manager exist I am so happy trading with Marcus90388 i never took her serious because I taught she was a scam like others ,until my first withdrawal of $10,000 within just one week of trading! I am so grateful to her and i can't keep this
Even though I hate all these groups. This shouldn't be a thing, it's free speech and you can't censor it.
Good
What's considered normal and a political sign? Should words and letters be involved. I mean having rainbow colors in clothing is normal. Even kids love unicorn and rainbow colors.
So to Newberg School district it's political to say Black & LGBTQ Americans have the right to exist. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
What are they going to read?
This school district is like:
A violation of free speech ! Do they ban conservatives ideas to?
Do we have here some people trying to grow a spine----don't hold your breath
Can't wait for students to be suspended for wearing maga bullshit
When did racism and being gay become political?
Why is political in scare quotes? These groups are actively political.
This is why elections are so crucial. We get complacent and lazy and racist and homophobic people get elected to serve and push policies that set us back years. The only way to stop this is to get out and vote despite how difficult the GOP is trying to make it for you.
BLM stuff and LGBTQ stuff are not political. I’m not surprised that they brought up those two things in the meeting. They didn’t mention MAGA. This will do nothing but cause people to bring BLM stuff and LGBTQ stuff to school anyway.
Oregon? Prolly a good thing; you can't wear that, freshmen. Bumper stickers tho.
Hm
That means blue lives matter too hopefully
Hopefully they include anything from the DT crowd and Confederate flags as well.
If you know oregon's hyper racist history this isn't shocking.
Also in Oregon: Parents who cannot or do not want their children to be vaccinated can claim an exemption for one or all school immunizations. This includes polio, smallpox, etc.
Small, fragile, and predominantly white people would burn this country to the ground if they thought it would keep their egos and their privilege from being threatened. They are the seed of America's downfall.
It's outrageous and grotesque action.
Interesting.
Pro-LBGT rainblow flags and Black Lives Matter symbolism are sacred symbols of modern progress, to be found in any genuine American university. We implore Governor Brown's support for a conscientious and inclusive approach.
So they think by taking away their right to free speech whether that be on their clothing or wherever that it will solve the problem with today's society? If anything it raises awareness especially to those kids who are too sheltered to know about these issues. This is dumb.
I wonder if they also give equal time to creationism in science class.

회개와 거룩함 사역회 BUSAN TreasureInJesus 이번 올림픽도 관객없이 진행되었고 변종 바이러스때문에 지구는 코로나바이러스로 셧 다운이 되었습니다 주님의 선지자는 회개하라고 외칩니다 메시아께서 오십니다
Alright. There’s hope. Everyone in Oregon isn’t a Marxist.
I don't care I can stop for a month I can take breaks
Authoritarianism is WRONG‼️👎
Good idea
School Is For Learning, On That Basis I Agree But Their Has To Be Room For Persons To Voice Concerns & A TIME FOR IT Etc. Protests Should Be Planned With Schools So Security Etc. Can Be Put In Place. Some Protests Turn Violent / Planned Violence To Discredit Protests.🙄😷
Sounds good to me Fair is Fair. Couldn't have another type of people walking around saying that they are proud to be... on their shirts- they just get labeled racist then...
I think this is a great idea nobody argues about anything and underage people aren’t exposed to homosexuality or nothing perverted like that
Finally! It’s about time someone stood up against these silly, petty and insignificant issues.
How many times does the Supreme Court need to rule on this? Political speech is protected speech.
Shamefully bad headline. 7th paragraph 'The apparel rule would only apply to staff while they are working.'
Only if all politically or sectarian related expression is banned too.
Yeah this won’t hold up in court.
Ok
About time
Cancel culture at work
Ok Oregon I see you, I didn’t know you guys dish your racism out blatantly as well, that’s cool because that’s actually how I prefer my racism…..Blatantly😌🙂
“Cancel culture”
Republicans love cancel culture
I hope that includes religious propaganda like crosses. Ya know, since they wanna be sooooo inclusive. Bigots are everywhere. The PRIDE flag is not a political sign. The cross however is a goddamn murder weapon. Literally!
Oregon sells out of 'this is not a political statement' T shirts
This stupidity will be overturned by a judge in 3...2...
RUSIA? IRÁN? CUBA Oh, DEMOCRACY and Free Speech in the USA.
