Local School Suspends Student for Removing MEXICAN Flag
Yesterday, a listener’s son was offended that his school, Klein Collins High School, displayed the Mexican flag prominently. His mother called to complain, and the school wouldn’t return her call. The student took the sign down.
The school pitched a fit, reviewed the surveillance tapes, found the student, and suspended him for 3 days. AND he has to pay for the flag. In light of the SF story of students sent home for wearing the AMERICAN flag because it offended the Hispanic students, I thought you’d like to know about a story closer to home.
Right here in our community. Feel free to let the school know what you think. You pay their salaries.

You realize, I assume, that if a student removed – or even burned – the AMERICAN flag, they wouldn’t do anything about it, I’ll bet.
Now, does Klein ISD have an ROTC group? And if so, where were they???
Parent photo from Berry's website below ...
Now what God-fearing, Texas-loving Americian would not get out of their car and rip-up that Mexican flag and put Old Glory back on top???
“I tell my wife that if my kids are suspended for something so asinine like this,I’d take them to Disneyland for their “suspension time”.”
Excellent! I’d send the school pictures.
Michael Berry, AM 740 in Houston, states that this is the parent photo and that he has verified it ...
The school flew the Mexican flag ABOVE the US flag, with the US flag UPSIDE DOWN ....
I still can’t believe it.
Callers into AM 740 are LIVID, red hot mad!

If I was a student there I probably would have taken that mexican flag down and burned it.
Re: NO current inhabitants of Mexico have ANY claim on even one single inch of the Southwest
Good one, thanks for the history lesson!
Earth to Mexican ILLEGALS.....
if you’re in your homeland, then fly the flag of USA...
NOT the flag of Mexico. Else, go the hell BACK to Mexico.
Already done. ... and I don't know Dick.
I do have to say, if I saw that flag display at any school here, I'd take it down using whatever means necessary, then plead temporary sanity.

I wonder if the upside down US flag was photo shopped. I have a hard time believing that they would go that far...
Idiots. Public skool edukated dummies.
Yup. My first thought too. No attribution to the photo on the site, and the url doesn’t indicate a date either.
I think seenko duh my-oh should be celebrated for a whole month straight. I bet ya the useless bums in DC would get our immigration problem fixed real fast then.
Yo, Travis, you've seen this pic before, yes?
I think it’s an actual picture, but one that was taken two or three years ago at a school in California.
That sounds right. Thanks.

Sorry, I'm html-challenged :-(
The radio station guy should be ashamed for using the American flag in that way
Disrespectful, un-American to do that just for sensationalism
