Kid Told He Can't Fly US Flag on his BIKE at School...amazingly good ending
13-year-old Cody Alicea rides his bike to school with an American flag mounted on the rear fender. He does it because he wants to display his patriotism and honor his grandfather and other veterans.
A few days before Veteran's Day, he was told to remove it so as not to "offend" anyone or fuel "racial" tensions.
If the US flag causes "racial" tensions in America, we need to seriously consider our failure in educating our youth. The next thing we need to do is understand that certain immigrants (possibly anchor-babies) refuse to assimilate to their new home and, instead, try to force us to adapt to their culture. Far too many stories like this show our willingness to pamper the "offended" by removing the American flag from their sensitive eyes. We need to stop bowing to political correctness.
But, here's the irony:
That big ole' flag on top of that tall pole isn't the problem...it's that little racist one on the back of that kid's bicycle over there!
Source
Now, here's where the awesomeness comes in.
Last Friday, the day after Veteran's Day, the school board changed their minds, allowing Cody to keep the flag on his bike.
They finally decided (after receiving national attention) that they should be focusing on punishing the bullies instead of the victim. What a novel idea!
Cody got a huge surprise, when the American Legion Riders along with other patriotic Americans decided to escort him to school yesterday morning, hopefully delivering a peaceful message to the "offended" anti-American thugs.
Veterans and patriots arrive early Monday morning to support Cody.
Cody and his proud grandfather.
Cody was a little emotional by the huge turnout of his supporters.
A veteran brings Cody to tears when he gives him his Purple Heart hat during a rally outside Cody's school.

I'm not even American, but I believe this should be the same everywhere and countries should stop bowing down to these *******s who come into a new country and bitch and complain how things are not like they are from wherever they came from.
If you are in the USA, displaying a USA flag should NOT be an offense of any kind and anyone who takes issue with that should have their ass handed to them.

It's too bad that the creator of this story inserted propaganda into this. It's a great story but that sentence is pure speculation and should not had been included.Originally Posted by tsarju
