    pledging allegiance to flags seems so archaic

    Less archaic than pledging allegiance to people, which was the old version. Actually, I think Commonwealth citizens sometimes still have to swear loyalty to the Queen. I'm almost certain Governors-General do.

    Depends on the role. I think police and military in NZ still swear a loyalty oath to the Queen. I'm not 100% sure about that

    How is a law against hate-speech a bad thing, guys?

    How could it ever be a bad thing?

    It kinda already is. You can't incite violence and you can't harass through speech.

    Can you make an ass of yourself publicly? Absolutely. There's no law against being stupid.

    The reasonable requirement doesn't mean that the administrator has to believe violence will happen. Simply that it's more likely to happen.

Even Tinker leaves that as an out for school administrators. And we're also debating this as if the students in question are "good" students. For all we know they may not be. If they or one has a history of fighting then it's without question the right call to make.

    The administrator cannot simply believe that violence is more likely than it was before--after all, as in Tinker, any controversial opinion could, theoretically, lead to a fight. It has to be that they believe violence, or comparably significant disruption, has become significantly likely. I doubt that belief is reasonable in this situation, especially given that nothing (which is exactly what I would expect) actually happened on the first day.

    In my High School you could sit out the pledge quietly, but it made you stand out like a sore thumb and you'd get a lot of shit for it. I was kind of a rebellious teen, so I sat these out. One time a guy tried to lift me out of my set to get me to say the pledge.

    In my elementary school, you had to say both the Pledge of Allegiance and the Christian Pledge. I'm not even sure if the second one was a real thing, or just made up for our school. Let me look it up...

    Ah yes
    I pledge allegiance to the Christian Flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty to all who believe.

    It's pretty hard to break the law by speaking your religious beliefs, though. That's kind of the point.

    Children do not have full extension of their rights. This includes speech.

    Regardless of anything happened or would happen, it was in the Principal's authority to do what he had to do.

    From what I understand, he allowed "Gay Pride" and "Straight Pride" shirts. He made the Straight Pride shirts mark out their offensive religious text.
