A small group of students watched as three others burned a canvas theater prop that resembled a French flag on the sidewalk school Tuesday afternoon.
The students said they were protesting France's opposition to an an American invasion of Iraq.
"The French actions have been bad so far," said senior Austin McChord, 17, who told The News-Times of Danbury that he helped to hold the canvas flag, painted with three large stripes of red, white and blue, while other students lit it on fire.
A shame when you think of how many Frenchmen fought and surrendered for that flag.
