Students Protest Ethnic Studies Curriculum Change

TUCSON -- Rowdy students take over a big Tucson school board meeting in protest.

It's a pretty wild scene -- and it's all over a Mexican-American studies class, a class that teaches history from a Mexican-American perspective.

Here's what's going on.

The governing board of the Tucson Unified School District was supposed to consider a plan that would make the class an elective, rather than a required class, like it is now.

A state law passed in December basically discouraged the classes, saying they segregate students. And this group of students wanted no part of it.

They took over the room, chanted "fight back," and basically ran the governing board out of the meeting.

Security tried to come in and tried to take the students away, but many of them apparently chained themselves together.

This isn't over though. The governing board is going to re-schedule its meeting to decide the fate of the classes.

So glad to be the hell out of Tucson and back in Texas.

Our money is going to teach these kids to join the Marxist revolution.

[Amigo04]

Since when do we allow kids to choose what they’ll learn? Snot-nose brats!

[pnh102]

Surely schools in Mexico can teach history from a Mexican perspective.

It’s only racist when white people people do it.

All the better! Just throw a chain or cable around their chain and hook it to a police cruiser and pull them to the jail house-fast!

Growing up to be good little anti-white racists or just racists in general.

The ONLY people that can say they were in AZ first are the Native Americans that were already on this side of the border. The descendants of the very few Mexican citizens that were in AZ 150 years and did not choose to go over the border back into Mexico at any point in the last 150 years can claim they were here first. The ones that stayed in Mexico have NO claim. Any illegals sneaking in now have ZERO claim. The United States won it 150 years ago. Mexico had AZ for only about 25 years and there were only around 10,000 in the SW when we won the war.

The United States was very generous when we won against Mexico. Mexico started the war. We won and could’ve taken the entire country fair and square as the spoils of war.
If there is any promoting of racist organization LaRaza in the classroom, then I propose the Reconquisadoracion of Mexico.

We charge Mexico for the land that they have now. Sell all their valuable assets, as the Soviet Union did when they took over Eastern Europe, charge Mexico for ALL the social services that we have squandered on illegal aliens including hospital visits.

Charge Mexico for all the lost wages and unemployment paid to legal Americans over the decades because the illegals took their jobs and made everyone’s pay in the USA lower by having a much too large pool of labor.

Put all the illegal aliens into Belize and Guatemala because it is a very small border to protect and pay those countries a few billion dollars out of what we make on the sale of the assets of Mexico to send every citizen of Mexico into their country since legally ALL of Mexico should, by rights, belong to the USA

Ping!

So menacing mobs of racist hispanics are just “rowdy students”. Next thing you know they’ll be throwing a toga party.
