1. Tucsonans (as myself) must not be forced to pay for some other ethnic group’s special privileges to have their history, etc. taught and force Tucsonans to pay for just theirs! My parents were immigrants (this word means people who come legally! They came to be American and left the old country behind. If these kids wish to be Mexican, they can go back to Mexico. Also, all immigrants if they want their children to learn about their background, send them to a library or teach them at home. Americans should not and MUST NOT be forced to pay for their culture.
2. The schools have little money and have even spoken about taking away Music and Art from our schools. Why are we spending money on one ethnic group’s culture when there is not enough money to cover the basics?
3. If you are going to teach one culture’s history, etc., THEN BE FAIR ABOUT IT AND TEACH ALL ETHNIC CULTURES – THIS WOULD, IN EFFECT, BANKRUPT THE SCHOOLS COMPLETELY SO then I go back to saying, no one is stopping the parents of these children to teach their kids at home and even send t hem to the library if they want more data.
4. However, the real problem is even worst! These kids are being taught lies: instead of teaching them an unbiased and truthful view of history, they teach them that “whitey” wants them to fail. (Read “Message to Aztlan” by Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales where whitey is to blame for everything similar to Rodolfo Acuna of Occupied America where he distorts American history and blames the white man for everything in the world it appears!). They teach “hate the gringo” and “Kill the gringo” and push Communism saying “We must destroy Capitalism” (Message to Aztlan). He even has a poem called “REVOLUTION” Telling the kids the “answer lies in the powder keg” and tells the American Indians (whose culture and history Mexicans are stealing saying they owned this land for 40,000 years when they only owned it the least of everyone for 24 yrs. after stealing it from Spain who owned it for 300 yrs.). He tells the Indians to “take scalps”. Another book called “Borderlands” refers to blacks as “mayates” which means “niggers”. The reason they have gotten away with this for so long is that no one at all checks to see what books or materials are being taught! So the radical teachers have a free hand to teach whatever they want. One of their materials is The Spiritual Plan of Aztlan telling the kids the schools will be used as defense posts and what they do will no longer be called “acts of juvenile delinquency” but “Revolutuionary Acts”!!!
5. Also, if you let these radical teachers stay in school and teach these kids, they will find a way to teach them this cr-p when no one is looking just by giving them a radical website to look up and read everyday as just one of their assignments. And further, it is a felony to teach the overthrow of our nation with a sentence of up to 20 yrs. – and that is a possibility that they be accused and prosecuted of same!
