You lost, get over it

A family of a high school sophomore in South Carolina is suing their school district because the girl keeps getting suspended for wearing Confederate-themed clothes to school in violation of the dress code, according to an article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Latta High School officials say the symbol, which many people consider racially charged, is disruptive in school, and that district policies allow principals to ban such clothing.

The teen said she has been forced to change clothes or turn her shirt inside-out. She said she has been suspended twice and threatened with being kicked off the track team.

Don't they realized they lost that war nearly 150 years ago?
