One would think this would be dramatic irony at its finest point, but when one considers that this nonsense happened in the Bay Area, one realizes that it really is not such an incongruity.
They're right you know. I would be pretty darned upset if I was attending the school-sponsored 4th of July celebration after I snuck into Mexico at night and had Mexican taxpayers pay for my education if my fellow students wore Mexican flags or spoke Spanish. And I'm sure Mexican citizens would rally around me to take up my cause.
Too funny. Cinco de mayo is not even a "Mexican" day. In fact it is a non day in Mexico. I am not really sure where the comparisons to July the 4th come, but I always thought that I had learned that day was actually September 16th. Perhaps my public school education is failing me.
Would the ACLU defend them?

ReplyDeleteIt would be funny if it did not prtend the gravity of our future.
