Thomas Moore Law Center ^ | December, 15, 2014 | Staff

On Monday (December 15, 2014), the Thomas More Law Center (TMLC), a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, MI, along with two other entities, asked the US Supreme Court to review the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision which upheld a California public school’s ban on the display of the American flag because it feared the flag might incite Mexican students to violence. In his minority dissent, Judge Diarmuid O’Scannlain criticized the decision as permitting “the will of the mob to rule our schools.”

When you become a citizen, you’re supposed to pledge allegiance to the country and the flag. This is what happens when you have a bunch of illegal aliens in our schools that have no allegiance to this country. They are just here for the bennies. Mob rule cannot be allowed.

Victimhood is alive and well in Mexifornia.

If they love Mexico so much and are so proud of their country, why did they leave?

My God. What has happened to this once great country? I think it’s time to find a remote island somewhere and watch the destruction from afar.....

In a recent daydream of mine, President Cruz signed a bill which turned out a disbanded ninth circus. He expanded the jurisdiction of nearby appellate courts in its place.

All the justices were sent home, with pay of course. No messy impeachments necessary.

“why did they leave?”

I know your question is rhetorical, but what would you do if you were sitting in Mexico making peanuts for pay and you could just walk across the border freely and get tons of free Obama stash. We have shi@@y immigration enforcement thanks to Obama and it will only get worse if amnesty is allowed.

It has been finished since 2008. We missed a chance in 2012 but so many brilliant Americans decided they would rather have King Obama than vote.

I know “we need a law” sounds absurd, but surely Congress might confirm the obvious: “The right to bear and display of the US flag shall not be infringed.”

I wonder what would happen if Americans went to Mexico, demanded free stuff and threatened violence against any Mexican wearing a shirt with a Mexican flag on it. Somebody would be beheaded.

If someone is offended by our flag they are free to leave. We don’t need people here who are not loyal to our nation.
