I wonder how Mr Fernandez would feel about including the true story of Goliad, which happened concurrent with the Alamo, in the curriculum.

Since when do we give honor to the enemy.

Were the Nazis given a monument in Germany after WWII to honor them for fighting in what they believed in?

This politically correct garbage is going to ruin America.
