Ban the Rainbow!

But keep the Confederate Flag. There is a secondary question here, but on the surface it is goofy enough. A principal of a Florida High School has attempted to ban all symbols that suggest support for gays - including most definitely the rainbow.

Davis [the principal] also testified that he believed rainbows were "sexually suggestive" and would make students unable to study because they'd be picturing gay sex acts in their mind. The principal went on to admit that while censoring rainbows and gay pride messages he allowed students to wear other symbols many find controversial, such as the Confederate flag.

The Confederate flag? Symbol of, what exactly? Armed rebellion and slavery? Desperately trying to topple the Federal government? That's OK, but the rainbow makes you think dirty thoughts?

Well thank God we have educators like Mr Davis to protect our school children from being corrupted by rainbows.


Secondary question: Why, in a field overwhelming dominated by females, are principals and other top administrators usually male? Just curious.
