High School Students Claim They Were Told To Remove Shirts With American Flag, But Shirts With Mexican Flags Got Pass

Three students at a Morgan Hill high school who were ordered to remove clothing with the American flag on Cinco de Mayo are suing the district.
The civil rights suit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court for Northern California. The suit claims school officials at Live Oak High School violated the students' rights to freedom of speech, due process and equal protection.
The students say school officials told them to remove their T-shirts or turn them inside out on May 5 because they were inappropriate on Cinco de Mayo. Students with Mexican flags and clothing with pro-Mexican messages, meanwhile, were not asked to do the same.
The suit seeks unspecified damages.
A district spokeswoman said she had not received notice of the suit and could not comment.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
