ZIONSVILLE, Ind. (AP) — A suburban Indianapolis school district is investigating a photo posted on social media that appears to show students giving a Nazi salute.
Zionsville Community Schools Superintendent Scott Robison sent an email Thursday saying the photo shows 14 students posing in the local high school, 10 of whom appear to be giving a Nazi salute. Robison called the photo “sickening” and “beyond offensive.”
Robison says another student saw the photo on Instagram and forwarded it to a teacher.
WXIN-TV reports the photo’s Instagram caption read: “Rumblin bumblers isn’t just a indoor soccer team, we are a cultural phenomenon.” The Indianapolis Star reports the team doesn’t appear to be affiliated with the school but plays at a nearby indoor soccer field.
A similar photo of a group of Wisconsin high schools prompted officials there to develop an educational plan, including student trips to a Holocaust museum.

I wish there was a place we could go and be free to speak (or salute) any way we see fit . I wish there were a place that people had unalienable (cannot be taken away or denied) rights to speak any way they see fit. I wish there was a place that a few snow flakes didn’t dictate how we think, speak, dress, live…Wouldn’t that be something? I guess that is a fantasy. I find Zionsville Community Schools Superintendent Scott Robison “sickening” and “beyond offensive” for just being Scott Robison. Does that make me a snow flake too?
