The boy was being punished because things got out of hand at a Cinco de Mayo celebration when the Mexican flag was celebrated.

[AzSteven]

How cruel - that poor kid is gonna hurt himself peddaling hard enough to keep up with those motorcycles! :-)

He looks like a really good boy. Thank stinking open-border scum like McCain and Karl Rove for this.

[Maverick68]

bump

[cll]

This makes me happy and proud all over.

[ComputerGuy]

I’m sure the libs will say it was too much ‘in your face to have a positive effect’, but I kinda like it.

[Jacquerie]

The statists can no longer commit their outrages and count on hiding in the tall grass.

[wastedyears]

Some lucky parents have an incredible son.

[brownsfan]

I love it. Those guys from the American Legion are making a difference. Thank you riders.

[T Minus Four]

Yes! Makes me proud :-)

[albie]

He looks like a good lad! Must’ve encouraged his patriotic spirit to have those folks escort him! It sure encouraged mine!

What I like about it is the backhanded way it embarrasses the school and it’s officials. This HAS to get media attention!

[Fantasywriter]

Those bikers are a beautiful sight. Thanks for posting.

[Michael Barnes]

Outstanding job riders! My thanks!

[NonValueAdded]

The American Legion Riders, the Patriot Guard Riders, and Rolling Thunder = one heckuva triumvirate.

[Second Amendment First]

Damn school Nazis probably crapped themselves when they saw this coming!

[samtheman]

Thank stinking open-border scum like McCain and Karl Rove for this.

I'm sure both of them have Mexican flags over their headboards in their bedrooms where they yell, nightly (to the beat of their flaying fists), VIVA ZAPATA!

[bunkerhill7]

Are these schools teaching anti-Americanism to our children? If so, that is treasonous and a betrayal of trust by traitors in our midst.

Any public official who teaches anti-Americanism to American children by word or example should be stripped of USA citizenship and deported.

[Kimmers]

This post has made my day.

This kid is a better citizen of this country than the adult school officials....

[Velveeta]

Ooooh, darn this blurry screen.
Way to go, Cody!!!!

[thesearethetimes...]

God bless this young man, and God bless America. We will be alright so long as we have young people like this, and so long as we stand with together.

He said in the video he was concerned about getting run over by the motorcycles. This kid is great; articulate and confident, a great American.

[SZonian]

One word,

AWESOME!!!

[Upstate NY Guy]

I would hope the school officials learned a valuable lesson from all this but I am not hopeful. It's kind of like telling people they cannot open a meeting with a pledge to the flag. It's going to backfire big time.

[RightGeek]

Hats off to the Legion riders

[dragnet2]

I don't believe any of this!

I've been told all the conservative ran away from California, everyone in California is an evil leftist, illegal alien, socialist or Communist...And was told everyone in California deserves everything they get!

Were all those people bussed in from other states?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

The school administrator should be fired.

[Second Amendment First]

Now I feel bad for all the times I’ve mocked Kalifornia.

They said on the video over 500 riders expected, and a military flyover as well.

[smokingfrog]

Love it!!

[w1andsodidwe]

We Californians do get picked on a bit here, but I always ask the offender where the Free Republic servers are locate.

[mikey_hates_everything]

We're mad as hell, and we're not going to take it anymore!

[Rappini]

If you’re a Veteran, or a Son of a Veteran join the American Legion all I can say is it’s a great organisation we do a lot of Charity work to much to mention here.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Ooooh, darn this blurry screen. Way to go, Cody!!!!

no kidding...this one really got to me (below picture)

A veteran brings Cody to tears when he gives him his Purple Heart hat during a rally outside Cody's school.

Way to go Cody and all of those fine people who showed up today to support him

[raybbr]

I'm sure both of them have Mexican flags over their headboards in their bedrooms where they yell, nightly (to the beat of their flaying fists), VIVA ZAPATA!

Let's see how long the mods allow the pic to stay...

[dragnet2]

Don't worry about it...People here are a tough hombres... Those that decided to stay instead of running off, are the toughest of the tough...Trust me.

I've got some neighbors that are actually looking forward to the ultimate brawl...No joke.

Many have simply have enough of this intrusive, out of control, bloated incompetent government, at all levels.

When the big show starts, you can bet the rent it'll start in California.

[Thunder90]

The kid is now on a DHS list of right winged extremists...

Obama, Pelosi, Reid, the Rats, and their hatred of America has led to this.

[BuckeyeTexan]

Were all those people bussed in from other states?

Yeah, Texas. ;^p

[dragnet2]

[Excellence]

Getting mention on Rush.

[Second Amendment First]

Rush reporting on this right now.

[NavyCanDo]

Great Update. Thanks for posting

[lapsus calami]

 

 

Heck Yeah

 

Let no transgression by the bad guys slide by, no matter how small. Make them think twice and even three times before pulling such crap anywhere. Only thing missing I would have liked to have seen was a marching band, though the tunes coming from the Harley pipes makes something of a suitable substitute. I hope every troublemaker at that school (administration and school body) peed their panties at the sight of that this morn.

 

 

[Gator113]

Beautiful!

Now when is the jerk administrator going to get fired.

I hope these guys are riding around with their flags on that fake Mexican Independence Day, “Cinco de Mayo”.

[gramho12]

Me, too. Brings a tear to my eye and a lump to my throat. If it takes a 13-year-old to stand up for America, that’s even better. It’s time to fight, and this positive support for our country and our flag is just great.

[Padams]

So cool! Thanks for posting the pics. Going to get tissues now...

[dragnet2]

Don't you wish...

Texas brought us a President that made American citizenship all but pointless.

Bush is one of those that is directly responsible for this epic violent invasion and historic disrespect of our borders, laws and sovereign.

Illegal aliens were so emboldened by the Bush administration, millions of illegal aliens marched on our cities and towns, making demands and threats while pushing foreign flags in your faces...

Here's Dallas Texas 2006 ---- 500,000 illegal aliens making demands and threats while parading with foreign flags.

[lapsus calami]

 

 

Yah, that'd work.

 

 

[dragnet2]

Beautiful! Now when is the jerk administrator going to get fired.

This goes *far* beyond some little Communist unionized government public school employee...

Ya see it was some of the Hispanic/Mexican students that angrily complained of being offended by the American flag, that kicked this entire event off...
