Sure, it all makes sense.
Why should American kids be allowed to wear T-shirts with the American flag printed on them in America?
Thankfully one high school administrator was equally outraged and sent the offenders home for it.
Five kids attending Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill, Calif., decided to wear patriotic clothing (T-shirts and bandannas with the American flag on them) on Cinco de Mayo. Assistant Principal Miguel Rodriguez told them that the clothing was inappropriate for the holiday and to ditch the bandannas and turn their shirts inside out or go home.
The kids chose option B. And now the town of Morgan Hill finds itself in the middle of a controversy.
One of the students, Daniel Galli, said school officials told him they could wear their patriotic garb any other day, but "but today is sensitive to Mexican Americans because it's supposed to be their holiday so we were not allowed to wear it today."
That's what Annicia Nunez, another Live Oak High student, thinks: "We don't deserve to be get disrespected like that. We wouldn't do that on Fourth of July."
. . .
Like film critic Roger Ebert. He has a solution.
"Kids who wear American Flag T-shirts on 5 May should have to share a lunchroom table with those who wear a hammer and sickle on 4 July," he tweeted.

What a joke....Mexico doesn’t even celebrate this. Follows the old Kwanza MO.
>> “should have to share a lunchroom table with those who wear a hammer and sickle on 4 July,”
In other words, the U.S. sucks according to this jackass.
do any of these people “get” that this is america not mexico and we do not have to observe this silly so called holiday?
Idiot.

People who want to be Mexican should stay in or move to Mexico.
"Kids who wear American Flag T-shirts on 5 May should have to share a lunchroom table with those who wear a hammer and sickle on 4 July," he tweeted.
Why would any self-respecting American, wearing the grand red-white-and blue, want to share a lunchroom table with Roger Ebert?

Of course not. We are not in MEXICO! What an asanine comment.

Sure, if we lived in Soviet Russia. But we don't Ebert.
The issue was that the 5 students were in violation of school policy (which is a violation of the 1st Amendment ala SCOTUS).
So the left is FINALLY admitting they're commies! Joe McCarthy was RIGHT!
Ebert is a moron....obviously.
Most Mexicans DO NOT EVEN KNOW the significance of "Cinqo de Mayo" --to them it's the 5th day in a sequence of days in the month of May --NOTHING MORE.
Same with St. Patricks' Day --mostly not known in Ireland.
Cinco de Mayo is not a holiday in Mexico, nor does it commemorate independence like the Fourth of July. And, they are welcome to wear a Mexican flag tee shirt on the Fourth of July. Although if they prefer Mexico there is an easy way to satisfy that national longing.
Send a big ole “HOWDY” email to VP Miguel Rodriquez at
Miguel.Rodriguez@mhu.k12.ca.us
Let him know what is acceptable behavior in THIS country.
the clothing was inappropriate for the holiday
California is sick very very sick and now you know why when schools are run by Reconquista freaks.
So, to this multiculturalist a**hole all flags (and all values) are the same.
What an insipid analogy.
BS. It is "sensitive" to mexicans with a piss-off for America. They are entitled and welcome to celebrate their diversity all they want...in mexico...
