UC Santa Cruz has acknowledged that a new student's Mexican flag was burned while their family was visiting with them during their move-in weekend.
The Mexican, Chicanx, and Latinx communities held protests all week to get the school to acknowledge and do something about what they feel is a hate crime.

Yup
What do they call the Lakota? Siouxxx?
I’ve a “Come and take them” flag...flying right now.
Hell, they burn the US flag all the time. It would be racist not to burn the Mexican flag.
That’s free speech still, right? Or is that only for burning American flags?
Give me a Mexican flag and I’ll burn it as well.
Well we can let Americans burn the flags of other in our own country can we?
But they can burn our flag in our country right?
Now, if they had burned an american flag they’d be given a standing ovation.
No they’re not. Mexico is a parasite nation.
Fake event...
The horror! The absolute HORROR! Where’s ma clutching pearls and fainting couch?
Maybe it was originally a derogatory term for women--"Chiskanx?" And somebody decided it sounded so nasty, it was cool, and everyone had to have a name like that.
No protests and demands over punishment for burning AMERICAN flags IN AMERICA!
“1st Amendment”
Has to be white liberals; the Latino and Chicanos I know hate those derogatory terms (and, boy, do they consider ‘em derogatory!)
No hate crime when the Santa Cruz Mission was vandalized during the BLM protests

I have a feeling that people who identify as Chicanx and Latinx are perpetually outraged at anything and everything.
And burning things publicly as a form of protest is a really dangerous way to protest anything so perhaps we stop it.
There are insane people in colleges.
Also marijuana smokers and underage drinkers.
Breaking news.
Ive often been in Santa Cruz, last time was this June.
I didnt see a Mexican flag.
