CHEYENNE – Students in McCormick Junior High’s Gay Straight Alliance club were told Wednesday afternoon they were no longer allowed to have or wear any LGBTQ paraphernalia on school grounds, including flags, shirts, pins and bracelets.

Students were told they would not even be allowed to wear rainbow colors to school, according to a student and several parents.

This is the latest response to racist and anti-gay flyers found in the school last month that read “it’s great to be straight it’s not OK to be gay,” “black lives only matter because if it weren’t for them who would pick our cotton,” and “Join the KKK,” with “the confederate kid club” in parentheses beneath it.

Around 2:20 p.m. Wednesday, roughly 20-25 students from the GSA club were called out of class and sent to a room where three faculty awaited them, Ashlynn Kercher, an eighth-grade member of McCormick’s GSA said.

2. The Nazis really hate that rainbow flag.

Every time one of my neighbors flies his a confederate flag, I fly a homemade rainbow flag. He came over here screaming about it. I told him I would do it every time he flew his racist symbol. After lying and pretending it wasn't racist, I said my flag was just about rainbows. He hasn't flown his flag since then.
