A listener to Michael Berrys radio broadcast in Houston Texas, called in to express her dismay with a Mexican flag being prominently displayed at her sons school, Klein Collins High School.
The Texas Mom did the appropriate thing and called the school to complain about the display and request that it be taken down, however, the school failed to return her phone call.
The student, possibly upset from the actions in California and after his mother received no response, took the Mexican flag down himself.
The administration of Klein Collins didnt take too kindly to the act. According to Michael Berry, the school, pitched a fit, reviewed the surveillance tapes, and suspended him for 3 days.
The young man is also being told he has to pay for a new Mexican flag.
Unrest over perceived preferential treatment toward Mexican-Americans continues to grow across the nation. Equally, anger is mounting within the Mexican-American community over Arizona and the national backlash to recent events.
AND ONLY IN MEXICO!
It would seem that some have ‘forgotten’ the Alamo.
Too late. Just read there are 6 million students in California, and over 50% are Hispanic. Imagine something similar in Texas or any border state.
the key word there is “public” schools. You can beat that 1000’s of private schools across the state are nearly entirely white.
“Mexican flag should be flown ONLY on Sept. 16th Mexican Independence Day. NO OTHER DAY!”
In Mexico.
Theft of school property or the property of a teacher or fellow student should be punished by something much greater than a three day suspension.
Mexico...land of the beheadings...second at least.
They can't speak english
“You can bet that 1000s of private schools across the state are nearly entirely white.”
That is how the South dealt with federal desegregation orders.
in your day, blah blah blah.
what BS.
save it for something American, huh?
Where are the people? The school board is where the heat is applied!
And the Gadsden flag, which was banned at some polling places because it was called a TEA party symbol.
the only national flag that flies in this country should be the stars and stripes. period.
We can add that one to the list. By the way, does the Gay and Lesbian Movement have a flag. I am sure that flag would be welcomed to fly any time and any where on public buildings such as schools.
Any time, ANY TIME a foreign flag is flown at any government facility, be it a school, courthouse, or park, it should be torn down and burned. Especially when the flag belongs to an invading country.
Yes it does... the rainbow flag and , sad to say, it flies over my home city!
