California School District President Rules Only The American Flag Can Fly In Classrooms, He And His Family Get Death Threats: Sunol, Calif.
- The board president of the Sunol Glen Unified School District filed a restraining order against a woman alleging she harassed and made threats against him and his family following the board’s recent decision to ban special-interest flags on school property.
Ryan Jergensen was one of two board members who voted nearly three weeks ago in favor of only allowing the United States and California flags to be displayed on campus.
The move angered the LGBTQ+ community and their supporters to the point that sheriff’s deputies were called in to end the chaotic meeting.
"People are threatening me, my wife and my children, threatening our lives in multiple emails," said Jergensen in his first interview since the controversial policy passed.
"That is unacceptable.
I will not stand for that."
