Greetings,
The response to my last comments concerning the inappropriate strong-arm suspension of five great young men, patriots who displayed their individual patriotism by wearing American tee-shirts to Live Oak High School, in Morgan Hill, California, was overwhelming. I received scores of requests of names and address of the people involved in this travesty
The strong-arm bully tactics of assistant principal Miguel Rodriguez to persuade the five male students to turn their shirts inside out because some students were offended by the display of the American flag on May 5, Cinco de Mayo, an obscure Mexican holiday. The administrator thought the display of the flag shirts as incendiary.
What an outrage !!
The e mail letter I sent to you and the subsequent commentary published in The Signal, Sunday May 9 has been overwhelming.
Here are the names and e mails of all concerned parties.
Nick Boden, principal, Live Oak HS. nick.boden@mhu.k12.ca.us
