What a bunch of crap...

Ignorant kids. Still think they are all 'special,unique snowflakes'. Reality will set in soon enough. SAT scores & GPA - Not ethnic pride - that's all that matters.

Agreed. And when reality doesn't pan out for them, they can blame it on people's intolerance of their ethnicity, and not their failure to work hard in school to get the grades to succeed later. I have some Latino friends that were successful in school, but they were constantly ostracized by other Latinos for 'acting white.'

They actually did put both flags up there, they just put the Mexican one on top.

I know. In a degrading manner upside down. Whenever you put any flag or symbol upside down, it means you are ANTI what that flag says. Ive taken sociology classes till it comes out of my ass. WHy not make your argument in a smart way instead of losing any message you could have had by just insulting the american flag. Look guys, when I was in my gang, we had TONS of beef with black neighborhods (gangs) and I started to get to know some black/white/armenians and was like. WHy are we all fighting for stupid shit. If we joined together we can actually make it better for ALL our people. Obviously this was unpopular since the structure and politics of gangs is like our own government in that war and conflict is btter for business, so I realized all this ethnocentricity is a crock of shit. Its someone despereately trying to find an identity instead of actually working towards the cause you want. Little do these idiot kids know how much harder they just made it for their blue collar parents in the real world when everyone sees this.

See? thats exactly the kind of shit Im talking about. Insteadof seeking real positions to cange things for your race, apprently youre supposed to ACT ignorant and not do anything with your life and only complain about how things are but take no responsibility as a race to do anything about it. I was on both sides of that fence. ALWAYS my old gangster homies would say I was "ashamed" of them and shit. WHIch is why quite a number of you on this forum has met my friends from my past life. I have no shame of them, the ones who are still my friends are good people. They woudl just get offended when I wouldnt invite them to some things. But I questioned how much fun they would have hanging out with BMW's for hours and talking a language about cars they wouldnt understand with a bunch of people they would consider "squares" for hours on end. But to them I was ashamed to bring them around.

The funny thing about these guys is that when you live long enough out of your country, or are born and educated somewhere else, even though your family or you are from another ethnic background, you are not really mexican or chilean, you are (as an example) "an american citizen who is aware that he has a mexican background", the easiest cure for this is to have everyone of those people live and work in Mexico for a while, then they'll see that they are not Mexican, they are americans wether they like it or not, and they should respect their flag.

This happened to me when i lived in Argentina, I'm Chilean, but after 11 years i returned to Chile, and i just don't fit in, I think like an argentinean, eat Argentinean meat, argentiean dairy, I drink mate, and when i travel visiting my freinds in Buenos Aires, i just don't want to return to Chile, I was born in Chile, but I'm not a Chilean anymore. ;)

yeah I remember that ish, ignorants runs rampant. I studied this incident in my chicano studies class and I concluded that is was just a bunch of ignorant ass kids doing what they do best, "acting like jackasses"

I couldnt agree more. Like I said it is obvious that they are just dumb ass kids with out any type of experience or knowledge or pride.

All the people who wear the "Che Guevara" shirt dont know a fucking thing about him. They all also think that he's Cuban or Mexican.....

Mariano

HAHA totally!!! To me Che got really big due to RATM. It was sooo funny to ask people who was on there shirt and they would say a different name everytime and when they knew who Che was they would get there facts all ass backwards. What it all seems to be is teenage angst and that pretty much it. Shit in my High School years I had plenty of hate and angst haha.
