San Diego, California (CNN) — When five students at Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill, California, taunted Latino students by wearing T-shirts bearing the American flag on Cinco de Mayo, even though administrators had told students beforehand not to wear flag clothing that day, they caused a ruckus, divided a community and reignited the culture wars.

A steaming turd is the only thing that comes to mind while reading this article...

Well put, Rb.

Ruben is a mexican flag waving amnesty freak.

Culture wars?

How about they just stop trying to destroy our culture and we’ll call the “culture wars” off.

[Daveinyork]

Amazing how loudly liberals squeal when their own tactics are used against them.

[pnh102]

Wait a second. I thought public schools were not allowed to commemorate real holidays like Christmas or Easter. How can they get away with doing something for 05/05?

Disobedient brats today, Trotskyite sabateurs and wreckers tomorrow.

I am proud to have zero remaining ‘liberal’ friends.

They are the enemy.

The only ones igniting a culture war is the left and La Raza!!!!

Disobedient brats ?

Whadda they do, keep rolling off the barbecue? :-)

[Paradox]

When its someone on THEIR side being disobedient brats, they are heralded as martyrs for free speech.

This should have not been an issue in the first place, an American flag should never be banned in the first place, I don't care WHAT day it is, sheesh..

[IronJack]

But the welfare-leeching sons of criminals who sport Mexican flags are ...

You bet, Rube-n.

Somehow, I doubt the 4th of July is observed in Mexico. Or Canada, for that matter. I think I may be offended. /sarc/

Say, why don’t US schools observe Canada’s “Dominion Day?” ...since President O says we’re all one big happy North America.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

My ephiphany came during the Florida 2000 recount. The scales fell from my eyes and I saw all Democrats, liberals, leftists, socialists, and progressives for what they are!

They are evil or stupid.

I can not be friends with anyone who is evil or so stupid as to support evil.

If the boys really wanted to be inflammatory, they could have worn shirts bearing French flags.

[kingu]

Oh, I love it. The US flag is now racist. In fact, they should remove those flags from the school grounds, less someone become offended by being reminded they live in the United States.

[GeronL]

But 200 kids walking out of school waving flags of a foreign country was just fine!

[RWGinger]

Reuben is a LIAR
If, as he says, the school Admin cautioned students to wear No Flag clothing on May5 why were there so many Mexicans wearing mexican flag gear?

This is the first time this lie has been floated. I guess the Principal forgot to mention that is all the interviews he gave following the incident

Rueben may think he is an American but all he is is an idiot

You see, conservatives usually don't give a hoot about whether students have the right to express, on school campuses, their opinion about this or that -- especially if doing so threatens to upset the social order. Now, suddenly, because of the Morgan Hill case, they've found religion and they're ready to side with the American Civil Liberties Union in defense of free speech rights for students? Talk about strange bedfellows.
I got a chance to see this hypocrisy up close last week when I appeared on CNN to discuss the Morgan Hill story with Kris Kobach, conservative legal analyst and law professor.

Obviously, this is leading up to the Big Reveal that Kobach sided against students' free-speech rights on some other ocassion.

I seem to have missed out on the Big Reveal. Can somebody point it out to me?
