Washington High School canceled 9/11 Tribute to avoid offending...

... Which is far more offensive to a large swath of people. 

The Eastlake High School students planned to wear red, white and blue to the football game. 

But the principal, who blamed “leadership teachers,” said “I know tomorrow is 9/11 and understand the sacrifice and values our flag represents, but I think they just did not want to unintentionally cause offense to some who see it differently.”
