Doesn't the mere fact that they went to the news stations and are planning to sue over this suggest they are were more concerned with making a statement than in building relations with their Mexican classmates?


Also Cinco de Mayo is not an American holiday and I find that since it's apparently being celebrated in American schools it shows that we're trying to be inclusive.

I agree which is why when the principle felt these kids were acting in ways that would be considered exclusive, he acted in accordance with progressive and reconcilliatory American sentiment in telling them remove the clothing or else take the afternoon off.
#1. No, I think I'd be outraged enough to call in the news if that had happened to my kids. And yes I would sue on account of this it is that outrageous.

#2. Yes but let's not forget it's IN AMERICA that they are celebrating Cinco de Mayo a MEXICAN holiday...in Mexico do they recognize the 4th of July or Memorial Day?
American's aren't repatriating to Mexico though, I guess because it's a shit hole with nothing there worth taking. They are instead setting up communities in Iraq and Afghanistan and helping themselves to those countries natural resources.
