La Raza Students Chain Themselves to Chairs in Protest

Yesterday a Tucson Unified School District board meeting was scheduled to discuss making the La Raza Studies, or the Race Studies, an elective in public schools rather than banning the program all together. The "ethnic studies" program was banned earlier this year because of the material being taught in the program. Instructors of the Raza Studies, also known as Mexican-American Studies, teach students that Arizona belongs to Mexico, to throw over the U.S. government to take back that land and trains students to do exactly what you will see in the following video. At 1:31, you will see Pima Country legal defender Isabela Garcia encouraging students to chain themselves to the chairs in the board room after they took it over. Her salary is paid with taxpayer dollars and she is also a leader of the radical open borders group Derechos Humanos.

The video is really, really disturbing and once again we see the Left unwilling to have a discussion and instead they shout, take over and shut down discussion and debate.

La Raza is a racist hate organization, akin to the KKK.

It needs to be called out for what it is.

Arizona. I used to have hope for this state. But after what idiot Gov. Brewer did last week - I’m not so sure any more.

It looks like more than enough morons ACTUALLY WANT to live like Mexicans south of the border.

That’s exactly what they are and should be treated like the KKK.

Pity. That would have been an ideal time to arrest the lot of them for disorderly conduct. I mean they’d already chained themselves up in neat little ready to go packages.

Then the cops could run their backgrounds to see if they’re in this country legally. If they aren’t then just keep their butts chained to the chairs when you drop them off at the ICE office.

Agreed. The room should have been emptied and everyone chaining themselves to a chair been arrested.

If La Raza or Derechos Humanos were genuinely concerned about human rights, they could go to Mexico and work to improve the system. Despite their name, they are working for the opposite of human rights by trying to turn the US into Mexico del Norte.

We can also give them an assist by returning them to Mexico if they are not here legally.

I happen to have known Isabel Garcia for over 20 years when I lived in Arizona from my LEO work. She is a communist radical and should have been fired many years ago from her government job.

Thanks. I was sure she is but it’s good to have confirmation.

Extremists like her should not be on a government payroll of any kind. She has a right to her opinions however radical but taxpayers shouldn’t be supporting them.

Wrong county. The sheriff there is probably serving them tacos and beer.
They wouldn’t dare do that around Sheriff Joe’s county unless they want to dress in pink uniforms, eat bologna and sleep in tents.

"La Raza Students Chain Themselves to Chairs in Protest .

.....Hmmmmmm.....It appears that some things in the so called great melting pot of America are refusing to melt. Perhaps they should be dumped out of the pot.
