Go Ahead. Tread.

Part of the students' booth display included a pro-Second Amendment flag that said "Don't Tread On Me" and "2nd Amendment Since 1789." But because two silhouettes of rifles appeared on the flag, administrators approached the students during the recruitment fair and demanded it be taken down. [More]
What are the names of the administraitors? Where's the video where the demand is made to identify themselves by name and position?

And why didn't the students refuse to recognize such "authority", demand to have their property confiscated and be ejected or arrested? Are they at least going to sue?

Flags depicting weapons? How disturbing and unacceptable to some! Anyone there from Mozambique?

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts flag has the state seal depicting a Native American holding a bow and arrows and another raised arm with a sword prepared to strike:

But all are not at peace with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts flag:

Apologies for the “Big Bang Theory”-like “Fun With Flags”:
