California's Monterey Peninsula Unified School District has barred students from wearing any clothing with the California flag, maps of the state, bears, the NorCal star or any references to the Bay Area. School officials say police warned them those symbols may now be associated with gangs.

Wait until gangs start wearing pants and shoes!

Can't wait for the day when wearing non-saggy pants is a gang sign.

And the gang's leader is codenamed "Moonbeam".

I presume the Police are not allowed in uniform in the schools now.

Those gangs are very dangerous. Among other things, they've been known to vote in politicians who overtax, overregulate the gangs and who are collaborating with rival gangs of the public sector variety.

Maybe the district should institute school uniforms, maybe orange jumpsuits?

They most certainly are symbols associated with gangs. So is the American flag. The biggest and most powerful gang of all is the government goon squad.

Is the gang nicknamed 'CHiPS'?

I'd start wearing NCR flag t-shirts instead. Same kind of gang.

I was so disappointed I never got to fight any two-headed yao guai.

Sure it is gang-related. Isn't that the flag that flies over the statehouse in Sacramento?

I heard clothing is associated with gangs.
