No, the kids weren't wearing an actual flag. That would be disrepecting the flag.
Please read the actual article. Your link is irrelevant. That would keep the president from wearing a American flag pin etc.

It is a sad day when we can't display the flag in America.

Even more surprising the were kicked off campus and asked for an apology.

There you go MMM, your favorite source for news:
Students Kicked Off Campus for Wearing American Flag Tees - NBCBAYAREA- msnbc.com

Notice the reason wasn't for improper display of the red, white and blue.
1) I never said MSNBC is my favorite source for news. Just because I don't agree with you on many things does not automatically make me a MSNBC follower.

2) Interesting that you blame this unfortunate situation on the "Mexican kids". I went back and reread the article and nowhere does it say Hispanic students, leaders, or ANYBODY complained or shunned the students for wearing the American flag.

How did you come to that conclusion?

If/when the govt starts coming after them for not filing, they change IDs again. I've seen this many times.
Nine dependents? What a great way to get audited. Trust me, the don't claim nine dependents. They get ripped off at work and keep their mouths shut.

You do know that most of the Hispanic individuals living in America are citizens are are here legally, right? Not every Latino living in the US is from another country, just as not every African American living in the US was born in Africa.
