Parker Jensen wanted answers about why American flags weren’t being displayed in his school classrooms, but instead he got a police escort and a one-week suspension.
Baltimore County School District officials reportedly called police on March 28 and summarily suspended Jensen after he inquired at the district’s office why the flags weren’t displayed in all classrooms, as required by district and state policy.
Jensen, a Towson High School senior who plans to join the Marines in August, is now suing the district, which surrounds the city of Baltimore, Maryland, for violating his First Amendment rights.
