It would be a mistake to allow the Left to label you. Put them on the defensive.

According to the USM website, the school has only about 800 foreign students. I am willing to bet that Mexicans are not part of the foreign student body count. I would want to know exactly how many Mexican international students attend and why they feel it is necessary to celebrate their independence when so few attend the school.

There might be more students from Taiwan, but they would certainly not celebrate it because it would offend China.

As for the flag, I agree with all the statements here that no US school should dishonor their own country in an attempt to honor another country.

Isn’t the Governor of New Mexico a candidate for the democratic nomination for president? Shouldn’t he be questioned sharply as to why a state institution is in wilful violation of the law in this case, and apparently proud of it?
