High School Kid Who Burned Mexican Flag Arrested And Charged With Arson
FreeRepublic ^ | 3/31/06 | kstewskis

Posted on 03/31/2006 8:52:07 PM PST by lowbridge

Just got home from work, and was listening to Joe Crummy on KFYI interview one of the dads of the kids that burned the Mexican flag:

Apparently, his kid was arrested by AJ Police and was held in detention in Florence all day yesterday. CHarged with Arson. It took all of their savings to get a retainer for an atty.

It gets better. The family is now getting death threats. They were informed by police that there are those trying to find out where the family lives, and are going after them. AJ police stated to the father, there is nothing they can do about it, until someone actually shows up on their property.

Also, there was another kid from the school (Rod, who said he was a "future" Marine) read that letter from the school, forbiding any kid to wear any article of clothing resembling or representing a flag, no matter what country it represents.

He said emphatically, that he *will* wear the US Flag to school Monday.

Apparently this flag burning was near the ROTC table.

My respect for the kids in AJ have grown a hundred fold!

we are screwn, kids.

We're screwn, indeed. Remember fondly the America we inherited from our parents and grandparents. It no longer exists, and will never return.

This is going to get ugly. That's the last thing I want, but I'm telling you: It's going to get ugly. Prepare yourselves.

This is how it started for Serbs in Kosovo in the 1980's.

Want to guess where they are now?

Thank you Bill Clinton.

Evidently, there's a lot of racial tension at their high school.

The only difference between a hate crime and a non-hate crime is the assumed thought process in the mind of the actor...therefore, thought is a crime.

A slug in the nose because you are ugly is punished less severely than a slug in the nose with an animous toward your victim's race. The acts are the same. The damage is the same. Now values are fair game for punishment.

Once values are fair game, Orwell's "1984" is here. We're only 20 years behind the title. Political thought will be next in line for definition as a hate crime.

Then I am really confused. Sounds to me like they are stretching the law to make it fit.

Ya, that was the question. Was it his flag to burn.

But... I can't believe a $2 item being burnt is arson.

That's ridiculous.

Burn that goddamned Mexican flag. Piss on it, stomp on it, write "Illegals aliens should be deported" on it.

The Valley is over-run now with Mexicans, Ern. You wouldn't recognize it at all.

If you can, pull up the Arizona message board from 'My Locale' to see all that's being said about this incident.
