Gary, that's not true at all.
The fact is that Senate Bill 1070 merely makes it a state crime to be in the United States illegally. It also explicitly prohibits law enforcement officials from solely considering race, color, or national origin in determining immigration status.

She doesn't have to carry it by law, she carries it so she can easily prove she's a citizen if she's stopped. What the law says and how it's executed on the street can be two different things.
I'm assuming she is a US citizen of Hispanic descent. Let's say she is with a group of illegal immigrants for whatever reason. Then she is suspected as well.

Dingus,
That flag never flew over California, one much like it but not that one.
Also if you talk to Mexican of the middle class in Mexico, at least the ones I know, they think Cinco de Mayo is just a day for the peons to get drunk in the USA. Sept. 14 is their day. In my town yesterday was just another day that gangsters shoot each other. Two this week.
Bluring,
Do you get mad whenever am Irish flag flies on ST. Paddy's day. A Swedish flag, a German flag and an Italian, and Pakistani flag have all flown over my home town on different days of the year. And every dumb big tired puckup truck has a confederate sticker on its bumper. Does that piss you off. Get over it. Why do you care, go eat at a taco truck and do not worry about it. Besides if they all went home I would have to teach regular classes and those students are not as respectful as the immigrants.
Cheers

Oh, she's a Mexican citizen visiting relatives in the U.S.?
Then she should absolutely be required to carry her passport with her at all times to prove she's in the U.S. legally.
I have to carry one when I go to Canada, Mexico or pretty much anywhere else. No, I don't have it with me at all times. But those areas don't have the same problems as Arizona either.
I think this bill is merely a roose to light a fire under the ass of our current administration. Someone NEEDS to do something. Since they won't, we will sorta thing.

Schools are not a good example for free speech issues.
While an adult can say just about anything beyond a criminal threat, fire in a theater, or anything libelous unless a person is a public figure, kids at school don't have the same rights. They do have more than you might think, but anything that a teacher/admin can construe as being disruptive can be acted on.
So a kid gets sent home for something? That's probably why they wore what they wore or said what they said in the first place. Kids like to test stuff.
Let them wave a Mexican flag for crying out loud. My grandma always flew the flag of Finland at their home, though if there was an American Flag the Finnish flag would be below it.
Also if we don't like Mexican drug lords tell your friends to stop snorting coke and grow their own weed.
Supply and demand- it's pretty simple.

On flag day in the late 1980s, they handed out little American flags for us all to carry. One of my schoolmates was expelled (weeks before 8th grade graduation) because he blew his nose on his little flag during the ceremony.

I thought it used to be that wearing clothing that looks to be cut from a US Flag was considered disrespectful to the flag. Same as flying it in the rain. Or letting it touch the ground while folding it. And we certainly learned how to fold it correctly.
Anyone else remember that?

These kind of vitriolic threads have no place on our climbing forum. Take a hike, go climbing, look around at the beauty in everyone. I have zero respect for the OP.

Dr. Sprock - as long as they grow your weed with green cards or citizenship- no problem right?
Jim Brennan- funny you should mention tile setters. I came to that same conclusion years ago, give fresh Mexican dude a carpentry assignment is high risk, but sub out the tile to a Mexican crew and they do a bang up job. It's not a matter of hard work or anything, I think it's what you know, and those guys know tile.

skipt,
Not this year but a couple of years back the "cowboys" farmers in FFA wore US flags, no problems on this day. This year not one, read not one, Mexican out of my 27 Mexican students, not Mexican American said anything about Cinco de Mayo. The only thing that was said that it was my mom's birthday. I did not even hear gunshots in town, the shooting was on the other side of town. Only one or two wore green white and red ribbons in their hair.
Dingus ask your middle class friends, I am curious to what they say about it. Most of my Students come from ranches and the lower working class.
Cheers

bluering said Why is wearing a American flag NOT PROTECTED BY THE 1ST AMEND. BY THE SILLY_ASS ACLU???
Man it's just really tough for me to decide if you keep posting dumber and dumber things or if you plateaud at a level of stupidity a long time ago and I just still haven't come to terms with how dumb that actually is.
I can promise you that if you got somehow indicted for wearing the American flag that the ACLU would be there to battle for you.
On the up side I got some really cheap drinks tonight care of Cinco del Mayo. Viva Mexico. What could be more American than that?
