The other day, in England, a kid was sent home from school just because of his hair cut which was in the colur of the George cross. He did this to show support for England in the world cup somthing that his mother enocouraged him to do and agreed with. However his teachers described it as inappropriate.
My question therefore is why is it inappropriate to be patriotic and get behind your team??!! This competition only comes round once every four years and last for 4weeks So why cant we get behind our boys instead of having anal teachers with anal ideals. What i find really frustrating is that if a muslim is told she cannot wear a hajib, or a Seikh is told he cannot wear a turban then the word 'inappropriate' becomes 'racial descrmination' But then the Goerge cross is a symbol of this country the Turban and Hajib arenot So why are can we not express patriosim freely just like Seikhs and Muslims can seeming express religion freely??!
