last I checked, being American isn’t a race
these kids are ‘guilty’ of having pride in their country... which is now a punishable offense, if that country is the USA
Lesson learned?: Surrender to Mexico, NOW!!!!
I bet Mexican flags are everywhere on Cinco de Mayo at that school
Who do you think you're kidding?
Madness.
Try posting on the site, if you write USA or something similar you will not have your reply posted.
” actions might have had racist undertones since the schools have large Hispanic student populations.”
Hispanic is not a race to start with. The actions a nationalistic overtone, which is wrong how? They are offended at USA chants the can drag their sorry butts back where they came from. The adminis-traitors need to be shown the door
C’mon, this is California, for crying out loud!
It’s not like it happened in an American state!!
(Yes, it’s sarcasm)
So why would Hispanics be offended by the USA chant? They are loyal Americans, right? Right?
This is the only country I’ve ever heard of in which showing pride in your country is somehow a heinous crime.
What a country.
This is just sickening that kids chanting USA are being punished. If those that are offended by such USA chants....maybe they need to return to their homeland....
I spent almost a week in Vancouver during the Winter Olympics in 2010. Everywhere there were Canadian flags, Canadian flag clothes, cheering Canadians, Bryan Adams concerts...yet I never felt uncomfortable at all. The worst thing that happened is that near the BC Place dome people might pee on your shoe because they were too drunk.
Well...I did have some Indian-Subcontinent female Vancouver PD start asking too many questions about my 12-pack of beer (”no...I am not drinking it on the SkyTrain, I am bringing it home to the USA...Alexander O’Keith’s IPA”). But, hey, a non-trad Canadian, what do ya expect. Guess she did not like my USA jacket I was wearing (which I wore the whole time in Vcouver...and no one else had a prob with it)
Same thing in Morgan Hill, California:
Boys wearing USA flag T-shirts on Cinqo de Drinko were first ordered to change, and then sent home.
Biiiig stink, too.
Yep. That’s it fer sure.
Taking pride in Amerika® is definitely racist.
You can move to France, but never be French.
You can move to Britian, but never be English.
You can move to Spain, but never be Spanish.
You can move to India, but never be Indian.
But ANYONE can move to America and become an AMERICAN.
It is something to celebrate. (Says this second generation Irish American)
Good to know there are some young people tired of the Mexican invasion too.
Apparently, the cultural situation in California has deteriorated to such an extent that it’s considered bad form to take pride in being an American.
The teachers would be okay with them singing “The Internationale” instead.
Commies are running everything in this country.
