Student Suspended For Removing Mexican Flag

[kptvol]

By being dismissed you mean posters stated that they don't give a damn about anyone else's culture because this is America?

That'll show 'em.

Hilariously off target.

And further.

"Racism" has been diluted to the point, that those that are truly victims of it, are being done an injustice.

 

[Cash Vallin]

When it challenges the American culture, absolutely yes.

and what exactly is american culture???

 

[kptvol]

I don't see how he can not be considered as a racist.

If he were to have removed an South African flag put up by an African-American he would have been called a racist. But to do it to a Mexican is ok?

Considering Mexican isn't a race, no.

 

[tvolsfan]

who pays for both, then??? the mayor out of his own pocket

School endorsement vs a pride parade...
Big difference.

When it challenges the American culture, absolutely yes.

How is it challenging American culture?

They put up the flag inside the school to recognize a holiday. They didn't force all of the students to sing the Mexican anthem or wear their colors.

No it's not, and the fact that you think that puts your views in perspective. I think I can consider myself an American nationalist. Not a racist.

My views are I don't think we should force our culture on someone else or refuse to let others celebrate theirs.

The fact that this is such a big deal to all of you puts your views in perspective.

 

[Cash Vallin]

That's because there is more diversity, not more tolerance of everyone else

Do you think the stuff you post is good?

yes, there is more diversity... which makes me more tolerant of the way people do things.

 

[tvolsfan]

and what exactly is american culture???

It's certainly an English speaking one. Probably involving American flags.

and what exactly is american culture???

Not a Mexican flag put up at a public school on American soil.

 

[Cash Vallin]

School endorsement vs a pride parade...
Big difference.

school endorsement vs. city endorsement... you're right, there is a huge difference.

 

[utvolpj]

yes, there is more diversity... which makes me more tolerant of the way people do things.

so you would describe Phoenix as more tolerant?

 

[Cash Vallin]

It's certainly an English speaking one. Probably involving American flags.

show me where that's stated?

 

[Cash Vallin]

so you would describe Phoenix as more tolerant?

than the ranchers of the area, i sure would!

 

[Cash Vallin]

Not a Mexican flag put up at a public school on American soil.

but at an american parade, it's ok?

 

[utvolpj]

than the ranchers of the area, i sure would!

the ranchers are protecting their land and share pretty much the same opinion as the city residents

 

[kptvol]

yes, there is more diversity... which makes me more tolerant of the way people do things.

You are also exposed to plenty of minorities in the dregs of society, which can instill a very negative view.

 

[tvolsfan]

My views are I don't think we should force our culture on someone else or refuse to let others celebrate theirs.

Hanging a Mexican flag isn't celebrating Mexican culture, it's endorsing Mexican national pride.

The fact that this is such a big deal to all of you puts your views in perspective.

I bet you think I'm a white supremacist, too.

 

[BearCat204]

yes, there is more diversity... which makes me more tolerant of the way people do things.

Are you suggesting that we are just some small town people who have never lived in a diversified region and that is the reason that we feel the way we do??

 

[zach0105]

Hilariously off target.

You seriously need a hobby.

 

[BearCat204]

but at an american parade, it's ok?

absolutely

 

[Cash Vallin]

the ranchers are protecting their land and share pretty much the same opinion as the city residents

yet, the cities are suing the law..

 

[tvolsfan]

show me where that's stated?

If you don't realize the American culture isn't an English speaking one, you don't have the common sense for this debate.

 

[kptvol]

but at an american parade, it's ok?

You suggesting the same rules apply for people walking around in public as the administrators of a school? Welcome back school prayer!

 

[tvolsfan]

yet, the cities are suing the law..

The people of Arizona are wildly in favor of the law.

 

[Cash Vallin]

You are also exposed to plenty of minorities in the dregs of society, which can instill a very negative view.

but you're exposed more to what each person can do. in my mind, that outweighs it.

if all i had to go on was the news and i lived in a country town with very little diversity, i'd probably be racist too
