As damn well he should!

A California high school principal has apologized for telling five students they couldn't wear U.S. flag shirts on Cinco de Mayo, the local superintendent said Friday.

Tensions at Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill had risen in the wake of the decision to forbid the shirts, as the students who wore the shirts defended their right to show their patriotism -- even on a Mexican holiday -- while a large group of Hispanic students staged a walkout Thursday in protest.

"This has certainly been a very difficult time for our school district," Superintendent Wesley Smith said in prepared remarks delivered Friday at a news conference.

Smith affirmed that students are free to wear patriotic clothing on campus, but the campus also must be kept "orderly and safe."

Hello,

Ever since I learned of this principal's actions, I have felt that his employment needed to be re-evaluated.

The end of the world must be upon us - I think for once, Frem, Rappy, Anthony and myself are in complete agreement!



And yes, Anthony, it's wonderful to have you back!

I like to think that this is an opportunity, an opportunity to use this rare piece of common ground to build a dialogue, a dialogue not merely to promote mere communication of our ideas but true understanding, understanding of just how truly wrong you all are and how right I always am.

Join with me my brothers...

Actually, this is the first time I can recall you ever being right, about anything.

Oh, before sending Mr. Rodriguez on his quest for future employment, somewhere souther, I just want to give him a memo from the pro-immigration corner: "Mr. Principal, You're not helping!" Oh, okay, also, now you're fired. That will be all.

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


Well, you can add me on the list. I may disagree with the statement they were making, but the reaction was 100% wrong. I'm glad he apologized; I'd review his employment, but first I want to know if banning them was his idea or some parent's or administrator's or something.

If it was his idea alone,

Hero, you ain't my brother, no way no how nor ever could be! The odds of us ever agreeing on anything ever again are astronomical, unlike the odds that I'll ever agree with Wulf, or even Crappy (tho' the last one, odds are pretty long too!)
