Student who tore up Mexican flag that was flying without American flag turns out to be racist

[Quixote1818]

Many locals were calling this guy a hero even though the flag incident was simply an accident because the ROTC forgot to put up the American Flag. Today however it was reveled that he had all kind of racist remarks on his My Space page. I had to listen to all the racist ass holes call into local radio defending this ass and calling him a hero. All his supporters were silent on the radio today which was great for my mood. :rofl:



>>>Now, a UNM organization for Latino Students, El Centro de la Raza, says that it has found evidence that Lynch had previously referred to illegal immigrants as “wet-backs” on a public MySpace page.

>>>>A University of New Mexico student charged with criminal damage to property after tearing up a Mexican flag last month pleaded not guilty Wednesday morning.

Peter Lynch, 30, has said that he tore the Mexican flag, which was flying in celebration of Mexican Independence day, because it wasn’t accompanied by an American flag.

UNM ROTC students admit that they neglected to lower the Mexican banner when they lowered the U.S. flag at sunset because they thought a Mexican student organization would do that.

3. When did Mexicans become a "race"?

I seem to be suffering under the idea that they are an ethnic group in this country and those that inhabit a nation south of the USA.

Mexican is generally recognized as a Mestizo race

And no thanks to those "ungrateful" immigrants who stubbornly refuse to assimilate WHILE they wait in line for overloaded ESL classes.

The news coverage is very telling. One fellow reads the stuff that was on his MySpace profile. His words were very disgusting!
