Students at a middle school in Burlington, Massachusetts threw a revolution over pride decorations they considered revolting. They have a right to feel comfortable and safe in school too, don’t they? Not to liberals. Town officials “are slamming” the 7th graders as “bigoted and intolerant” for shredding the rainbows into Skittles.
No pride in revolting decorations
Pride month was disrupted on June 2 at Marshall Simons Middle School in Burlington, Massachusetts, as straight students destroyed the pride themed decorations.
Practically anything with a rainbow on it got yanked down and trashed. Progressive town officials were horrified that these students had resisted their programmed conditioning with such a “bigoted and intolerant display.”
Proud heterosexual student protesters “charged through” the hallways ripping down rainbow decorations and pride posters “because the school had encouraged its students to show their pride by wearing rainbow clothing.”

While most students cheerfully complied, there “was a counter-demonstration.” Teachers knew they were in for a rough day when a large contingent of deplorable pupils “wore red white and blue clothing.”
By the time the riot got in full swing the patriotic supporters of nuclear families were chanting “my pronouns are USA” as they “destroyed rainbow decorations at the school.” All the LGBTQ+ types went scurrying for the official safe space.
“The protesting students intimidated others who were gladly participating in the celebration, which was organized by the school’s Spectrum club for LGBTQ+ students and allies,” computer science teacher Diana Marcus relates.
Not taking the stickers
Most of the students, administrators report, “accepted and wore rainbow flag stickers that were offered.” That was until “they noticed their peers ripping them off and throwing them on the floor.” It was like a herd of sheep who suddenly learned Karate.
“Over the course of the day you could actually see a reduction in the number of students walking around in rainbow-colored clothing. It was really tough.” While the “protest appeared planned,” it was the decorations that took the brunt of student’s anger, not fellow students.
Nancy Bonassera is furious. These troublemakers who refused to drink the Kool-Aid must be sent for drastic re-education. What will they refuse next? COVID jabs? Masks? After all, “middle school students pick up on all this stuff.”

They “may seem socially unaware, but our most vulnerable students are very aware of the situation around them. It was very clear that those students were not feeling supported.” With straight students ripping down pride decorations, all the furry kids could do was cower in the litter box.
One teacher was so scared to speak out they remained anonymous pointed out that “many students were visibly disappointed with the retaliation.” They agree with Bonassera that administrators have an obligation to “provide consequences” for children daring to demand their rights as binary gendered individuals. Their punishment should be harsh enough, she suggests, to chill the speech of the entire community once and for all.
Bonassera called “punishments an opportunity for the town to emphasize its stance on inclusivity and equality.” They’ll get new decorations as soon as the town reinstates “the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion subcommittee and hires a DEI director — a position that has been vacant for a year.“
