California high school bans the american flag on Cinco de Mayo

[JOHN MATRIX]

I dont understand why this isnt bigger news. The school told the kids that no one is allowed to wear anything showing the american flag on may 5th, which is a mexican holiday. A group of mexican kids complained and a mexican gang threatened to do violence upon anyone wearing the american flag on that date.

The liberal school administration did the natural liberal thing, which of course was to do the bidding of those kids threatening violence and pander to foreign, anti-american sentiments while punishing those with the audacity to have pride in THEIR OWN COUNTRY, IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY by banning the AMERICAN FLAG on that day.

A local court upheld the ban.

RIP California.
the transition to Mexifornia is well advanced.

As a Californian, Im absolutely disgusted.


Fuck this state.

Court: School was within its rights to ban U.S. flag T-shirts on Cinco de Mayo

(CNN) -- A California school that stopped students from wearing American flag T-shirts on Cinco de Mayo didn't violate their constitutional rights, an appeals court ruled Thursday.

The school's approach, according to the appeals court, kept students safe in a climate of racial tension.

"The controversy and tension remained," a panel of judges from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said in their opinion, "but the school's actions presciently avoided an altercation."

School officials were worried about violence and disruption of school activities "and their response was tailored to the circumstance," the opinion said.

The case dates back to May 5, 2010, when the principal of Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill, California, asked a group of students wearing American flag T-shirts to turn their shirts inside out or take them off.

The students at the Northern California school refused, according to the appeals court's summary of the case, and later brought a civil rights suit against the school and two administrators, arguing that their rights to freedom of expression, equal protection and due process had been violated.

Judges said the civil rights case forced them to weigh the difficult question of what takes precedence: students' free speech rights or school safety concerns?

According to court documents, the incident occurred amid "ongoing racial tension and gang violence within the school, and after a near-violent altercation had erupted during the prior Cinco de Mayo over the display of an American flag."

The previous year, court documents said, a group of students carrying a Mexican flag had clashed with students who hung an American flag from a tree and chanted "USA" on Cinco de Mayo, a holiday marking a famous Mexican military battle that is often celebrated in the United States.

In 2010, the appeals court said, "threats issued in the aftermath of the incident were so real that the parents of the students involved in the suit kept them home from school two days later."

CNN first learned of the court's ruling on Twitter.

The kids issuing the threat should be expelled, those wishing to express loyalty to mexico should be taken across the border and dropped off, and those responsible for this ban should be hung for treason plain and simple

As I read it...the white kids were wondering why the hell they had to take their shirts off. Its a bullshit Holiday that was an excuse to drink. Now its a point of national pride remembering an obscure battle against some French troops collecting a debt on Mexican Gov....horseshit Reconquista propaganda.

I'd be irritated by this except that it's pretty clear that high school kids have no rights anyway.

Student Arrested For Having Fishing Knives In A Tackle Box In His Car

I don't know about you, but when I was in high school and college, there was a good chance that if you rooted through the glove box or center console of my truck, you could find a knife. Why? Because outdoorsmen carry knives, and I don't know how many times I'd go straight from class to a lake or river. What I certainly never did was bring that knife into class or into the school building. That's just common sense, and 17-year-old avid angler Cody Chitwood seems to possess that same common sense. But when drug-sniffing dogs flagged his car parked in the lot of Georgia's Lassiter High School where he's a student, the police proceeded to search the vehicle. They found no drugs, but a couple knives they discovered in Chitwood's tackle box now have him facing up to ten years in prison, and a $10,000 fine. The arrest is part of Georgia's zero tolerance policy on weapons in school.

This is the natural results of policy that suppresses ethnic and national pride by one group but encourages it from another.

What happens to these nationalist tendencies when it causes the meximericans to secede? Do we put them down with bayonets, as did the Radical Republicans?
