Mexican flag burned at Arizona High School

From the Arizona Daily Star:

Tensions over immigration reform heightened in the Phoenix area's East Valley Thursday when students raised a Mexican flag over Apache Junction High School — and then other students yanked it down and burned it.
"I know (they) shouldn't have burned the Mexican flag," said Jacob Stewart, a 16-year-old sophomore. "I heard it was raised above the American flag and that just irked me."

He said the turbulence was tied to debates going on in the state Legislature and Congress, where ideas ranging from offering illegal immigrants a chance at citizenship to making them felons are being floated.

Six students — three Hispanic and three white — will be disciplined, Principal Chad Wilson said.
Officials with the Apache Junction Unified School District would not specify what punishment the six face.

What do you want to bet that the white students will be subjected to politically correct multicultural sensitivity training while the Hispanic students will be treated to another dose of victimology?

It's a shame they don't teach civics or American government in schools these days. Otherwise, the Hispanic student who raised the Mexican flag might know that THIS IS THE UNITED STATES!
