13-year-old Cody Alicea rides with an American flag on the back of his bike. He says he does this to be patriotic and to honor veterans, like his own grandfather, Robert. He's had the flag on his bike for two months but Monday, was asked told to take it down. A school official at Denair Middle School told Cody some students had been complaining about the flag and it was no longer allowed on school property. "In this country we're supposed to be free," said Cody. "And I should be able to wave my flag wherever I want to. And they're telling me I can't." Cody's grandfather says the school was concerned about racial tensions or uprisings because of the flag. He feels if there was really a problem it should have been brought up two months ago, not during Veterans week. "No action should be taken. We don't want any repercussion," said Roger. "We just want Cody to be proud of what he's doing."
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
^ state not states
Although it might be a good idea to split into one state for Leftists and one for Americans.
*ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL*
I hope ALL the parents that are legal citizens pull their kids out of this school!
“The last conservative Republican president, Bush...”
Bush was no conservative.
“Based on your own comments and behavior, you and others like you will do the same thing in Tennessee and elsewhere, when things get tough.”
Honey, what the hell are you smoking? Things never got “tough”. We didn’t “turn and run”. We just wanted to live in a more conservative place, preferably in the Bible Belt. You know nothing about my behavior. We’re stick-in-the-mud, straight-laced, zero-debt, ultra-conservative, solid citizens.
“The ONLY crimes that are 100% preventable are those committed by illegal aliens! “.
Al Ash.
Of course you didn't...
I say we do one better, let’s give CA back to Mexico, along with all it’s debt, crazy millionaire celebrities, NANCY PELOSI, SAN FRANCISCO, tons of drug addicts, lazy welfare-addicted people, home to the Crips and Bloods. Most the flags flying in CA are the Mexican flag anyway, in a majority of the cities there, spanish is already the official language, it would hopefully keep that crazy group “La Raza” quiet, for awhile or maybe not, they probably will consider it racist, because that would mean millions of la raza’s members would be without welfare and free medical.
But just in the financial and illegal immigration problems alone, we could really make huge dents. Just think, millions of illegals sent back to Mexico all at the same time, within minutes. I’m telling you people, giving CA. to Mexico would go a long ways in solving a lot of problems the US is in, financial, illegal immigration, crime, I could go on and on.
Does this middle skrewl have a flagpole out front with American and California state flags flying? Did they take Old Glory down from the skrewl flagpole on Cinco de Mayo?
The principal, and whichever underling(s) made that decision on that kid, need to be fired. IMMEDIATELY.

“Since when did conservative patriots run from anything??”
Er, where did the American settlers come from?
Did they not run from Europe?
Did your ancestors not run from some other country, or were they native Americans?
I am sure you are a proud Kalifornian, obviously born and raised there.
I am a proud Tennessean, born and raised in Tennessee, but like the entire USA, it will also fall into the hands of Marxist thugs, and illegals.
If I were still in the USA, I would not dream of living in any other state, especially Kalifornia.
What a smart patriot little kid!!!!!

The next time someone tells ya have to speak Spanish to get a job, tell them to F*** OFF.
Apples and oranges. One instance was a sickening, but unfortunately protected, manner of speech. The other is restricting an inoffensive, patriotic display of our nation's flag.
Apples and Oranges?? This below occurred on Arizona State property, which tax payers are forced to pay for and maintain...Were you aware of this?
This desecration of our flag occurred on the main lawn directly in front of the Arizona Capital building on 7-31-2010....All caught on video.
These illegals and their Mexican pro-illegal alien supporters, spray painted, "Burn this racist city to the ground" and placed a toilet seat on Old Glory as they walked all over our flag....
You live there, ou change it. Don’t look for the rest of us to bail you out.
BTW, I’d suggest you stop insulting people who think the state of California is reaping it’s own reward for voting for basic communism.
Any of this sh*t should be enough to make any American recoil in disgust, and all you can do is bark from the sidelines about Californian being "bad"...When the kid in this story is great!!
It gives you and this moron in room #159 another venue to pretend this is all somehow isolated to California.
