US students kicked of school campus for wearing US flag t-shirts

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.

....so it's cool that the US allows people from other cultures and countries to celebrate whatever they like but our own citizens in their own country can't support their country

It's one day a year Lyle. Would you think it appropriate to dress up like it was Halloween on some war rememberence day or like Father Christmas on Hanukkah?

It's just about respecting an occasion. By dressing themselves in American garb they were just making a show of disrespecting the Meixcan celebration.

I just don't see it any differently to wearing a Nazi uniform to attend a school Rememberence Day service or dressing as a roman soldier on Easter. It might not be quite as visually striking but the intent to offend is exactly the same.

If it'd happen in France, they it's pretty much understandable.

#1. That's erroneous because as I have stated before "Cinco de Mayo has nothing to do with America ergo wearing an American flag anything (especially in America) should not be considered an insult"

#2. You have shown time and time again you cannot prove intent

#3 The Nazi's killed millions of Jews and Remeberence Day is to remember and respect those who lost their lives, the Romans oppressed Christians for hundreds of years and "Cinco De Mayo" is about the Mexicans defeating the French at the Battle of Puebla so to make your arguement hold water it would be like someone wearing a baseball team's hat to a football game it would just not be relevant it doesn't mean it's offensive just because it has nothing to do with that day/event
