Funny, I grew up one town over from there. I know how it is there. The campus can be a volatile place, lots of fighting and things can get ugly quick. The adults and administrators are quick to jump on anyone who is trying to (to put it in the vernacular of the area) "start shit." I can see how, in the administrators eyes, these kids were out to start shit and that doesn't fly on high school campuses in that area. Stuff like that has and does lead to fights, even stabbings and shootings which is exactly why the administrators acted how they did. It's not about patriotism, white v brown or USA vs Mex. Simply a case of putting a stop to the actions of a few, that had the potential to lead to something worse. This news headline could have very well read, "4 kids get killed for wearing red white and blue to school," if the administrators had not acted as they did. Nothing to see here.
