No, this is about a Mexican-American community upset that someone dared show US patriotism in a US school on "their" holiday.

Every single time an "outrageous suspension" story comes out, eventually it turns out that the original story was sensationalistic and based only on the student's point of view in order to stir up fake controversy.
Someone has already posted that bandannas were against the dress code. I wonder what more the story left out.
Of course, this doesn't stop the usual suspects from playing up the usual cards and claiming victimhood all over again.

They assimilate, just as my German and Irish ancestors did when they got here.
Most hispanics I have met do work hard, do try... but there is a vocal minority that want all they can get and we bend over backwards for them.
Again, the challenge stands, I'd like to see Mexicans wear the Mexican flag on a bandanna and tshirt to a public place (like a school) on the 4th of July and be told to take them off because they may incite a fight.
Part of treating people right is treating them as EQUALS... when you put them into special groups and kowtow to their needs and expect others to be "sensitive" to them while those same people don't give a damn about your sensitivities... it no longer is an EQUAL playing field, but you are putting that group above all else. THAT IS FAR MORE RACIST/ETHNICIST/IGNORANT/ SUPREMACIST THAN ANYTHING I COULD EVER SAY OR FEEL.

Please tell me how you've had to or were expected to bend over backwards for anyone. Also, please tell me who expects you or is trying to force you to become bilingual.
