That doesn't make it wrong on her part. I once wore a shirt to Disneyland that had an upside down cross on it from chest to belly button & said "THIS IS MY NEW FVCKING RELIGION" on the back. So what?

Lately there has been lots of talk about prom dresses. Well in this case a girl gets sent home wearing a confederate dress. What do you think? here's some pics.
Tennessee teenager was turned down from her high school prom for
wearing a red, white and blue sequined dress that resembled the
Confederate battle flag, the Jackson Sun reported.
Tennessee teenager was turned down from her high school prom for
wearing a red, white and blue sequined dress that resembled the
Confederate battle flag, the Jackson Sun reported.
When 18-year-old Texanna Edwards showed up to the dance Saturday in
the controversial dress, knee-length with thick blue ribbon crossed at
her hip, officials told her the outfit was “offensive and inappropriate”
and did not allow her to enter the event.
A teacher had counseled her not to wear the dress to prom or to get approval before the dance.
“I didn’t talk with administration because we wore rebel flags all
through my four years at Gibson County (High School),” Edwards said in
the story. “… I asked a bunch of people before I had the dress made and
they all loved the idea.”
Edwards’ school is located in western Tennessee, about 30 miles north of Jackson.
She told the newspaper that both black and white classmates
complimented her attire, and her mom said they had spent $500 on
preparations for the big dance.
A spokesman for the school district defended the principal’s decision
not to admit Edwards, saying that he was taking precautions to prevent
any incidents sparked by such a prominent display of the Confederate
icon.

In short, "Freedom of Speech and expression", We are not at war, so let her wear what she wants.
I don't care for Confederates but my mom... she hates white people period.
I guess she's just a little too far north.
She probably wouldn't have had a problem in Alabama or Georgia.

It is so obvious that American's choose sides based on what is popular.., or who we love..., or tradition..., or arterial motives oppose to the reality that right is right no matter what. There is a cable TV show called the Bill Maher show.., on it he has a statue that he awards to people with their head up their ass. In fact the statue is made depicting that image.., my point here is simple., people that seeks to harness other peoples rights deserves this award...I'm just saying....JOMO
and her name is Texanna (Texas)
