Schmited?
Second Schmited?

How cool!!
You cannot wear a flag as it may offend and cause violence.
But, you can call dead soldiers a fag and hold signs telling their relatives that god hates them!
Bizarro world strikes again.

life tends to be unfair.....


Still, having freedom includes the judges ability to make this ruling if he believes it is right.
Its a conundrum.


I suggest cyber school - they can wear whatever they want without offending anyone.

Pretty sad, but not unexpected in California. I tend to think that the Northeast and the West Coast are pro-foreign , anti-American forces against our nation, as a whole, anyway. Not a surprise. Those areas are hateful to true American values. We just have to beat them out with voting, as provided in our beloved Constitution.

This one line says it all. It's celebrated all in the name of the mighty dollar!

It's not my heritage and the 5th of May will always be the 5th of May and nothing more.

That is your choice of course, I don't give much heed to many commemorative holidays either. I don't live in Puebla so Cinco de Mayo passes without much notice here in Michoacán but it was very popular when I lived in the US.

You are quite correct to recognize it is celebrated in the name of the mighty dollar, which appears to be the nature of many American traditions. I only attempt to point out it is more an American tradition than a Mexican one given its popularity in the respective countries.

It is interesting to note that your reply comes on November 20th which is the Mexican holiday commemorating the Mexican Revolution that began in 1910. I suspect that is simply coincidence and not by design.
