“Remember the Alamo” on the front and “NRA supports our 2nd Amendment Rights” on the back of the shirt.
Swore it’d have sarc tag. Yike.
The Heckler’s Veto is now the law of the land.
You can bet your last dollar that if it had been a Hispanic student who had been threatened by US students for wearing a Mexican flag, the school and the courts would have been solidly for the Hispanic student.
FU Mexico.
Including the fact that most Mexicans have to be told what it is?
This is reaching new levels of bizarre.
To start with, Cinco de Mayo is as contrived a holiday as is Kwanzaa. In Mexico, it is celebrated almost exclusively in a single state, Puebla, which has no border with the US and is in south-central Mexico. There it is called El Día de la Batalla de Puebla (English: The Day of the Battle of Puebla).
So, in effect, instead of honoring Hispanics of Mexican descent with a *real* Mexican national holiday, especially Revolution Day, Mexico’s *big* national holiday, which is celebrated annually in Mexico on the third Monday of November, marking the start of what became the Mexican Revolution, some people in the US created a *bogus* holiday for ethnic Mexicans to celebrate.
So what is the court doing?
It is saying that Americans cannot celebrate their country on the same day that Mexican-Americans are told they should celebrate a holiday almost exclusively celebrated in the US that has almost no relevance to their ethnic history.
WTF? This is like saying that Americans cannot celebrate their country on Saint Patrick’s Day, for fear of offending Irish Americans; or during Octoberfest, for fear of offending German Americans.
Or Easter, perhaps, for fear of offending rabbits. Arbor Day, for fear of offending trees.
Or, now that I think about it, during Kwanzaa, for fear of offending west Africans. Though right now it might be called “Ebola-Day”.
How about foreigners not dictating what American citizens can do on American soil?
I’m going to wear a French flag t-shirt next cincodemayo.
