Americans now 'racist' for waving American flag

Americans now are being blasted as “racist” for the simple act of waving an American flag.

It happened Monday in California to a small group of protesters who waved U.S. flags in front of a school where officials had banned the practice to avoid violence threatened by Hispanic students celebrating Cinco de Mayo.

The controversy developed in 2010, when school officials ordered students not to wear U.S. flag-themed shirts on the Mexican holiday. The ban has been upheld by a federal appeals court.

The controversy brought a small group of protesters out Monday, and the community reacted immediately.

“What’s wrong with these white people holding up American flags in Morgan hill??? Racist a–holes,” wrote Gia Lee in a feed monitored by Twitchy.

Mexican students allegedly had threatened violence because of the shirts, and school officials, consequently, suspended the right of other students to wear Old Glory.

Twitchy caught Davey D blasting the patriots: “Shout out to the racist a– adults, so-called patriots who are posted up at Live Oak HS in Morgan Hill protesting Cinco de Mayo #idiots.”

“The Gilroy Morgan Hill Patriots … what a bunch of racist d–k-heads!! I think they may be part owners of the LA Clippers. #racist,” wrote Jorge P. Gonzalez.

“Hey folks in Morgan Hill. You have some racist neighbors. You need to check those tea party a–holes,” said Al_Bondigas.

“F— your American flag. Racist as f—s. I’ll always have pride with my Mexican flag but not the American one,” wrote Ivan Mora.

Plenty of room for the Mexican flag in Mexico. Don't we require an oath of allegiance for citizenship?

A three-judge panel of the court earlier had said: “The specific events of May 5, 2010, and the pattern of which those events were a part made it reasonable for school officials to proceed as though the threat of a potentially violent disturbance was real. We hold that school officials … did not act unconstitutionally … in asking students to turn their shirts inside out, remove them, or leave school for the day with an excused absence in order to prevent substantial disruption or violence at school.

Beautiful. Free speech unless a preferred group threatens violence. Mob rule, thanks to the judiciary.

Yyyyyyeahhhhh. If it wasn't for violent disturbances by the people of Puebla, there would be no Cinco de Mayo.

The calendar would go straight from Quatro de Mayo to (whatever the Mexican word for "sixth" is) de Mayo.

Americans need to wake up. All of the epithets thrown at them one a daily basis - all of the isms - are NOT intended to correct wrongs or make America a more tolerant place.

They are being used to suppress and eventually oppress.

These people - the race hustlers, feminists, the gays - are not interested in the least in equality. They want to rule.

Greenfield wrote brilliantly about this issue just yesterday.

Are You the Biggest Victim?

Progressive politics reward those who scream the loudest and threaten or commit violence. This is jihad writ large. We have succumbed to Shariah law. Criminals are the big winners in today's fear driven culture.
