The number of offensive tweets, according to the report I saw in Miami, was.....wait for it......TWO DOZEN!
A quick google search for "san antonio singer" in the news category yielded more than 2,500 articles.
In other words, it appears the left wing media is trying to make a national issue out of a handful of tweets.
I don't remember the national media outcry when a group of Dayton Ohio black teens attacked whites and used racial slurs while doing so....or when a black woman told her dog to attack a white female reporter last week.......
Then it became clear....this little boy is being used as a PAWN by the Democrat mayor of San Antonio (keynote speaker at the rat convention last year)...
For all we know, the racist tweets might also be set-ups....or, perhaps, racist remarks from blacks.....but if so, the media WON'T report that fact.
This is a BIG story. It must be. Its been the leading headline news article in the San Antonio Express News for the last two days.

When I saw this issue covered on Inside Edition, or whichever show it was on, I just knew it was going to be played to the hilt. All to allow amnesty and a greater invasion from Mexico. The kid is innocent, which goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway.
Keep your NRB.
Keeping whites feeling guilty so that they don’t question their dispossession is one of the most important jobs of the Cultural Marxist.
Something is up....especially with the push for Illegal Alien Amnesty.
I thought he was maybe a big Three Amigos fan who could sing
It's how the Left works.
Why is he dressed like one of the “Three Amigos?” I mean, even Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass were more subtle. Just curious if this is common at “events”, or special celebrations, or something else that I’m missing.
I saw a replay of the kid singing the Star Spangled Banner. He sang it beautifully. He sang it right.
He did a much better job than most pop culture singers who try to turn it into a pop song.
He sang it like Francis Scott Key wrote it.
Did this kid forget the words, like Christina Aguilera or screech it and grab his crotch like Roseann Barr?
No?
I am reminded of the best rendition of the anthem I ever heard, Whitney Houston at Super Bowl XXV. Her performance brought tears to my eyes.
If this kid did half as good a job, hats off to him.
And my thanks to his father for serving our nation in the United States Navy.
Tweet that, Liberal Media.
Anti immigrant is racist and anti-free trade. strange bedfellows those two pro immigrant groups.
Let me get this straight.
They stuff this kid “In-Your-Face” with his mariachi costume, and it’s OUR fault?
This sweet little guy is being used.
He looks adorable and sang beautifully and respectfully, from what I read.
This is a set up and he is being used.
The San Antonians are not a great bunch of idiots, they have a grievance for which they have very little congressional representation.
To incite Spurs fans is a dirty trick. They are not going to articulate the situation well, in general, and per the setting.
They would do better to list the grievance and address it to the perpetrators of this nasty PR stunt.
No city has done more to assimilate Mexicans, I would guess, than San Antonio. A broad enabling of illegal activity and ALL its trappings is something else.
People do not take well to invasion. Not now and not historically. San Antonio is on the edge of it and no one on the national scene is asking nor do they want to know.
But there is a lot to say.
And using this little talented guy is fighting dirty.
There is no doubt about it.
Here are the other racist tweets.
While many of them are over the top, since when is calling someone Mexican or an illegal immigrant "racist"?
The powers that be knew all along this would be bait, and are playing the racist card to the hilt.
Shery’s daughter - (I’ll be getting my own account soon.) This kid is wearing the clothes he performs in. It’s possible that it may have something to do with the immigration thing, but it also may not. This is what mariachi singers wear. This is what he knows to wear when he performs. Also, there is nothing wrong with him being proud of his Mexican heritage but also proud to be an American. If you want to read more into it, go ahead. I feel it’s a shame that he has been subjected to such racist vitriol. We ought to know better, especially since we are ALL descended from immigrants to this country. I too support border security and do not appreciate illegals being given benefits and rights that our own citizens don’t get. But I seriously doubt this boy and his costume have anything to do with that. I’m proud of him. It was an honour to have him sing our national anthem.
Make sure we keep something in the news to distract the public's attention while Rome burns.

Fine singing. Keep it up, kid.
And, REMEMBER THE ALAMO!
It’s not like he did his own “creative interpretation” of the Anthem, like Jose Feliciano did in the 1968 World Series.
I saw a lot of self-righteous people on Facebook with their panties in a bunch over this, ranting and scolding about the evil racists who dare to criticize this little boy, and how it makes them ashamed to be American. Well, I’m sure he’s a nice little boy. And I’m glad he’s not an illegal. But if I were a singer and were invited to another country to sing their anthem at a sporting event, I would not show up dressed in a red, white and blue cowgirl outfit. I would have enough respect for my hosts, and their national anthem, to dress in a neutral manner.
I completely agree with the posters here who feel the child is being used as bait.
