Not So Harmless
We all read about the incident involving five young men at Live Oak High School. These young men had the *GASP* effrontery to wear *SHOCK* items depicting the American flag to their school on May 5th. The vice-principal, Miguel Rodriguez, approached them and told them to remove the offensive wear, for fear of starting a fight, or some such nonsense. Basically, the kids wore appropriate clothing to school, but the pussy of a vice-principal thought it would cause the peace-loving Hispanics celebrating Cinqo de Quatro* to basically riot. Nope…not jumping to conclusions there…
Now we hear that this school has a bigger problem than five kids exercising their rights. It turns out that one of the school “clubs” is none other than MEChA. For those unfamiliar with this society, MEChA stands for “Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan” which translates to “Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan”. Guess what they preach (for lack of a better word)?
Essentially, we are a Chicana and Chicano student movement directly linked to Aztlán. As Chicanas and Chicanos of Aztlán, we are a nationalist movement of Indigenous Gente [people] that lay claim to the land that is ours by birthright. As a nationalist movement we seek to free our people from the exploitation of an oppressive society that occupies our land. Thus, the principle of nationalism serves to preserve the cultural traditions of La Familia de La Raza and promotes our identity as a Chicana/Chicano Gente.
So, to those who see the celebration of Cinqo de Quatro* as just an excuse to drink Coronas, think again. This may be my opinion only, but I don’t see the Irish freak out when someone wears an American-themed shirt on St. Patrick’s Day. Likewise with the Germans on Oktoberfest, or the Italians on Columbus Day. Ask yourselves: why is it so celebrated here, yet virtually ignored through most of Mexico? Sometimes the conspiracy theorist in me rises up, I know…. But recent happenings like this and the Texas school suspending a kid and illegal immigration rallies make me wonder, a lot.

MEChA has a school club????
Does that mean the Aryan Nation can have one too? I mean if they really want a riot…
Fuckwads.
Aggie, I’m glad you tackled this. It had me so pissed off I couldn’t write a coherent sentence.
One tag line on your site is the “man law” –
Is that anything like Mickey Rourke’s euphemism?

whups. Aggie, care to delete that last line? I cut-n-pasted but didn’t cut enough it seems.

Helloooooo?
cmblake6… you mean the principal might have had something to do with it?
Jumpin’ jehosephat!
That’s the problem with letting ANYONE remain who by definition could give a rat’s tushy about the country if it is given higher status than the country he loves (which confuses me – if they all love Mexico so much why aren’t they staying there and making MEXICO a place of dreams and opportunity?)
Oh, that’s right, because not all cultures are created equal – some will thrive and others will not ever amount to much w/o some huge paradigm shift.
Fuck them. We won; they fucking lost. If they don’t like it, go eat rice and beans and shit in the desert, south of the border, in that cess pool known as Mexico.

Yeah, we know: The crime family known as Las/Los Razis. (Sieg ƒµ¢%|π§ Heil, racemongers!)_Vamos, Chicos/Chicas!_

I fear where this is all going if we continue down the same path. The wedges are being driven deeper and deeper with the one sided tolerance hypocrisy.
Stay well armed, folks.
Belt fed weapons, intersecting fields of fire.
cmblake, sounds good.
Though, I must say, I think it would be highly meaningful to be laying in a field, facing the border, and be lucky enough to catch some Mara Salvatrucha asshats sneaking across, and be able to see the look on their faces when they look down and see this:

In a perfect world, you would be able to get a pic of their facial expression in the second before you set it off.
Ah yes! Minefields! Brilliant! Check these:
