Welcome to the Liberals gone wild.
Students Kicked Off Campus for Wearing American Flag Tees
On any other day at Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill, Daniel Galli and his four friends would not even be noticed for wearing T-shirts with the American flag. But Cinco de Mayo is not any typical day especially on a campus with a large Mexican American student population.
Galli says he and his friends were sitting at a table during brunch break when the vice principal asked two of the boys to remove American flag bandannas that they wearing on their heads and for the others to turn their American flag T-shirts inside out. When they refused, the boys were ordered to go to the principal's office.
"They said we could wear it on any other day," Daniel Galli said, "but today is sensitive to Mexican-Americans because it's supposed to be their holiday so we were not allowed to wear it today."
The boys said the administrators called their T-shirts "incendiary" that would lead to fights on campus.

A High School in Morgan Hill, California, has sent 5 students home for wearing T-shirts adorned by the American Flag. The decision, made by the vice principal of the Live Oak High School, which has a sizable Mexican American student population, was made on Cinco de Mayo after students were encouraged to celebrate Mexican culture and to be sensitive to Mexican Americans.
