I also did not see in this thread a little item being reported in the main stream media that at least two of the students were of mixed ethnic heritage, white and Mexican. Not shocked to see that this happened in the Bay area.

Read the description of the groups you mentioned, they seem to be organizations dedicated to enforcing immigration laws with ties to white supremecist groups and that's why they're on the hate map. SLPC tracks, monitors and uses litigation to fight violent and abusive hate groups, they've won victories against the KKK and other white supremecist groups that are responsible for a lot of heinous crimes that you probably wouldn't approve of. You might want to read a little more into their history before you dismiss their credibility. And just in case you think they have a anti-white agenda, they track the black seperatists and radical jewish hate groups as well. The only place they could use to work more is helping keep an eye on Islamic hate groups.

Just watched a Fox News clip with one of the kids involved. He had a great line.

Supreme court said it best with students "not shedding their rights at the schoolhouse gate". Not sure to what point they can restrict dress, but I don't agree with the school officials at all

Oh, and Darrell, we are all ignorant in regards to at least some things. If you and I weren't, for example, we wouldn't be in school now, would we?
How would you say that the antagonism is so clear?

I guess the mods should have said to keep it non-political and also RESPECTFUL.

Again, if you don't get it then you just do not get it, period.

I did not see that stating the obvious is disrespectful and I meant no disrespect by it.
