    Default I thought this was BS

    http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local...-92945969.html

    Kids got kicked out for the day with the threat of suspension for wearing american colors/flags on Cinco de Mayo and then Mexican students said it was rude of them.

    I personally, think its bullshit. In no way shape or form is that disrespectful. Also, this is America, telling students not to wear American colors on ANY day is bullshit, IMO.

    Of course I own this.

    Thats bullshit right there....kicking them out for wearing the flag of the country they live in? HAHAHAH WOW. Also, isnt Cinco de Mayo the celebration of Mexico's independence from France? Do people in Mexico even celebrate it? To me its just like St Patricks day for Americans where everyone uses it as an excuse to get drunk as fuck on a day they wouldn't normally do so.

    No, and that is the most absurd thing. Most mexicans don't even 'celebrate' Cinco the Mayo. They just celebrate the money coming in from the sale of Margaritas and tequila shots.

    FYI, Cinco de Mayo is to commemorate the mexican army's triumph over the french army at the battle of puebla. Mexico's Independence (from SPAIN) is celebrated on September 16th......

    So those mexican 'complaining' would be like Irish kids complaining on St. Patricks day. Even then, they would need to be kicked in the nuts for even complaining about anything....

    Fuck them. They are in America, not Mexico. If they don't like kids wearing the American colors, then they need to go back to Mexico. I'm not racist by no means, but we are in America here. Hell, I could say that rap or any type of music is offensive to me. But, I try to be open and listen to a little of everything. Anyways, the point is tuff shit, deal with it. But, I do smell a law suit coming. If the parents have any brains at all of course...
    You know better; next time will be a ban.

    Did you guys ever think of the context the kid wore the shirt in? Maybe he was a white supremacists or maybe he deliberately did it to piss people off. That would actually be grounds for suspension. Not trying to stand up for whiny PC bleeding hearts, but you probably didn't get the whole story.

    Who cares if there was some other reasoning behind it? As long as hes not running around talking shit to them theres nothing wrong with it. So hes proud of where hes from...I see flags from other countries on cars and shit everyday and it doesn't mean shit to me. Its good that people are proud of where they are from.

    If I went into a church with this shirt (which is a deicide shirt) on to deliberately piss you off . How would you react? Maybe I'm a proud Satanist. Or maybe I think religion is evil. The fact is if he did it just to piss people off then he is out of line. You don't know what kind of person he is.

    This isn't about anything else except the fact that they wore American flag shirts....in America. There were no words on the shirts and it doesn't say anything about them running around trying to start trouble.

    You are obviously not getting the point. Okay let me break it down for you. If someone wears an article of clothing in the context to cause disruption then it could be considered wrong. Maybe he has a history of starting shit with Mexican people. Or anyone in general. If not I totally agree with everyone else. I'm just saying that you may not know the whole story.

    I'm getting so sick of this crap...apparently it's a crime to be an American and like it in AMERICA...If you have a problem with this country go back to where you came from(if you even came from somewhere else).

    In a school it doesn't matter what you like as a student. You are there to learn the minimum curriculum that the state requires and do so in a manner that is not disruptive to the other students or the order of the classroom. If you sing the star spangled banner while the teacher is trying to teach your dumb ass thats disruptive behavior. It doesn't matter how "patriotic" or whatever .

    Typical conservative sentimental bullshit. God forbid you numbnuts ever view a situation in context.
