McAllen Texas Students Forced to Recite Mexican Pledge and National Anthem

I can hear the Mexican national anthem played over a couple of Mexican border blaster radio stations at six each morning. Here are some of the lyrics:

Mexicans, at the cry of war,
make ready the steel and the bridle,
and may the Earth shake at its core
at the resounding roar of the cannon...

War, war without quarter to any who dare
to tarnish the coats of arms of the country!
War, war! Let the national banners
be soaked in waves of blood.

It is interesting that at the time this anthem was adopted, Mexico wasn't living up to its rather bellicose lyrics--Mexican legislators were lining their pockets by selling off chunks of Mexico's national territory. They had just sold to the US a parcel of land known as the Gadsden Purchase, forcing the residents of Tuscon and Mesilla to either leave or live under US rule, and they also tried to sell us Lower California.

You can listen to the Mexican national anthem here.

Could one of your HTML pilots cue up a pic of that crazy looking Mexican from Treasure of the Sierra Madre..... I love
him. He looks just like my Frito Bandido pencil eraser when I wasd kid.

Do they still sell those?

Government school? NBD!

All government schools & teachers indoctrinate the government's children with loathing & disrespect for the United States of America and it's former Constitution.

This teacher, like all the others in government indoctrination institutions, simply is doing what she has been trained to do...

"If Perry doesn’t approve he better speak out pronto."

Exactly what I was thinking...there have been MANY threads debating Mr. Perry's TRUE stand on border security FOREIGN INVASION. Since this is my #1 key, I want the truth.

I'm all ears, Mr. Perry...condemn this act of TREASON or be gone.

When you lie, you earn the contempt and rudeness you receive. Lying about someone is about as rude as it gets. Using lies in an attempt to destroy a person is about a puerile as one can get—adults prefer factual arguments to distortions and lies.

Texans (and Californians) view Mexico, border security and illegal immigrants differently than most Americans.

And the entire nation pays the priced for that. The last thing we need is another Texas governor in the White House.

Agreed. It is Perry’s golden opportunity. If he wants the nomination more than he wants to make nice w LaRazza, he will come out firing w both barrels blazing.

I’m not holding my breath.

Try this one on for size:

Rick Perry Is Not the ’5th Column Candidate

As for the rest, I fail to see where "The Muslim community has a significant number of political conservatives, and they do support Perry . . ." amounts to Perry "cozying up" to CAIR. Are you asserting that CAIR represents all Muslims, or are you simply being dishonest because you are unable to attack Perry based on factual arguments?

The teacher, Reyna Santos is another glaring example of the mistakes created by affirmative action. She should be fired so she can sue us for discrimination. The she can take the money she gets from American taxpayers back to the country she loves and try to avoid the drug cartel bloodbath.

BTW- "what's up with the Nazi style salute?" - Is that a standard part of the Mexican pledge?

[Fantasywriter]

You were provided two links to back up the truth of what I said. You have not and cannot refute the facts contained in those links. All you can do is attack me. This is the pattern or Perry supporters. His record is one of cozying up to CAIR and LaRazza. His supporters can’t deny that—there are photos to go along w the CAIR/friendly legislation Perry signed—so they attack any FReeper who mentions it. A losing strategy, just like Perry’s.
