A listener to Michael Berry’s radio broadcast in Houston Texas, called in to express her dismay with a Mexican flag being prominently displayed at her son’s 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 didn’t 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.
"Oh, were just celebrating our heritage"
Spit*
The BS is knee deep.
Thanks for the link.
This story is like 2 years old
Should it be deleted? lol...
No, thank you for posting it.
We will add the “Rainbow” Flag to those that are permitted.
Anyone have any other flags that idiot municipal and school officials have no problem displaying — but continue to have BIG problems with displaying the American Flag?
No problem......But it appears some would rather this not be posted...
I agree, as the school clearly showed where their allegiance is by allowing this in your face display.
I posted it myself on FR seven months ago. I even posted the video which Breitbart linked to. This is an old story. You ought to state this when you post as if it is new. I never suggested it should be deleted.

First ya say it's two years old, now ya say it's several months old.
The fact is, I and others never saw here and I even searched for it and never found it.

Wait a minute pal, this below was my very first post to this thread! I clearly revealed this was months old...
""I didn't see this posted here, it's a few months old and occurred prior to the incident involving Cody the young boy in California, with the American flag on his bicycle""
From your link....Nice!
We shove our foreign flag in your faces, and if you don't like it, we'll threaten all of you!
These people are some of the most disrespectful people on the planet..
Are you insane? Its agains’t the law to fly the flags of other nations. That school should be sued for allowing it. We have one flag here Junior, the American flag.
Too bad for them huh?! Ignore them, just pay attention to my post. :D
“However, if you like, you can work to pass a law that protects those who steal private property that you happen to find distasteful.”
He didn’t steal the flag he just moved it from the wall to a more appropriate place-a garbage can.
“Are you insane? Its agains’t the law to fly the flags of other nations”
Would that be a state law or a federal law which as you claim makes it illegal to display a flag of another nation?
And please cite the name of this law that makes it illegal to display a flag of another nation?
“He didn’t steal the flag he just moved it from the wall to a more appropriate place-a garbage can.”
Well, that may be your opinion, but I doubt that will be the opinion of college admissions officials when he has to explain that he stole a Mexican flag and tossed it into the trash.
