Anybody seen these outrages yet? I received the e-mail today from a co-worker. I know it may be an old story here on FR, but it's new to me.

These multicultural morons crossed a bright red line. Their impudence is of greater injury than had they burnt Old Glory, as terrorists and their sympathizers do in Islamic countries. In fact, I propose this act IS a form of terrorism—and a veiled declaration of war by Mexico against the United States. How could the message be any clearer than that they place their colors over the Stars and Stripes--on American soil--and fly Old Glory upside down just to underscore the point? The insult would be surpassed only had the scoundrels defecated on our symbol of national unity. If this represents how Mexicans display their affection to become US citizens, then, now more than ever, I protest their presence on American soil. Washington D.C. dimwits regurgitate the Bovine Scatology that they cannot deport 12 million illegal aliens... Well here’s a news flash for the ruling elite: Since these “students” had the balls to mug for the camera, start by sending their insolent asses packing back to whatever third-world cesspool they came from.

Good grief...14 months old.

Good grief...14 months old.

If the illegals had been sent home 2 years ago, this would never have happened.

This was discussed extensively here back when it happened. You could probably find some of the old threads by doing a search.

I think it's great. The more these savages defecate on America, the sooner Americans are going to ride them out of the country on a rail. The sooner the better.

No more immigrants from the toilet republic of mehico, legal or illegal, will be the result if these subhuman morons don't grow up.

The school administration says that they were essentially held hostage in "lockdown" by the invading students.

MUSD staff has done a wonderful job in keeping our students safe and secure. However, on Monday, March 27, 2006 at noontime, a group of students from neighboring school districts to the east of our district (i.e., El Rancho Unified School District and Whittier Union High School District) marched to Montebello High School. At this time, MHS was on lockdown and the students remained in their classrooms. The other students, from outside Montebello Unified School District, who were estimated to be 800-1000 strong, gathered outside the MHS campus. For a brief time, the school flag was lowered, replaced with a Mexican flag, and the American flag flown beneath, upside down. The California flag was subsequently stolen. It is important to emphasize that this was not the act of any Montebello High School student.

But I don't see anything about local police or this school district doing anything to punish the invaders or even the student who did this. If I, as a non-student of ANY California school district did this, I would not walk away without charge.

A student protest that resulted in a Mexican flag being flown on top of an upside-down U.S. flag at a local school has prompted disciplinary action against one El Rancho High School student.

El Rancho Unified School District officials said the unnamed student was punished for being involved in the flag incident, which took place Monday at Montebello High School, about four miles east of El Rancho High School.

[El Rancho Unified School District Superintendent Norbert] Genis said the boy is expected to send a letter of apology to Montebello school officials.

It would seem that the hundreds of students were tresspassing. No punishment?

The school administrators are cowardly asses.

I'm surprised that for once Snopes didn't try to make a lot of excuses for the behavior. They held out hope for years that Hillary didn't knowingly lie about the "origins" of her name.

Snopes is biased left and really not a quality site.

"In fact, I propose this act IS a form of terrorism—"

That's really stupid.

[Grizzled Bear]

Welcome to FR! Do you like kitties?

[TexasNative2000]

Clever nickname, BTW.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

I’m sure that’s not the last thing the troops who storming Normandy, Iwo or Guadalcanal would have liked to have seen before they died!....What a disgrace!

[BurbankKarl]

In fact, the flags are still flying like that in Montebello!

[bobby.223]

he might. he sure clammed up in a hury huh?

[VR-21]

That should be...

"No more immigrants from the overflowing toilet republic of mehico,..."

[uptoolate]

Their government funding should be cut until they learn from whose hand they feed.

Merci, monsieur.
