Chris still hasn't found a job.  He's still having problems, but we're not sure what's wrong.  He has been to more doctors than I can remember now. 

We were doing the best we could with his retirement money.  It's all gone now.  They had told us that we HAD to spend all of that before we could get any assistance and now that's gone.  It's so frustrating.  You work your entire life to have something later and it's hard to do that because of all the people who LIVE off the system and…

One day as he was leaving the office, a piece of paper from a book about Joan of Arc wrapped…

Judge rules that students can be prohibited from wearing American flag t-shirts

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 1:02pm 0 Comments

Here is another example of our disappearing freedoms...  



On Cinco de Mayo (May 5, 2010), a principal told three students that they had either had to turn their American flag t-shirts inside out or go home.  He said he did this to prevent violence from Mexican American students who were celebrating the Mexican holiday.



Last week, a judge ruled that Mexican American students are allowed to wear Mexican flags and colors on the Mexican holiday, but school officials CAN…
