This one flew under my radar:
http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-court-flag-protest-20150329-story.htmlThe legal battle began on May 5, 2010, at Live Oak High School south of San Jose, when several students wore shirts bearing the American flag on the Mexican holiday marking the May 5, 1862, defeat of French invaders.

Their protest came in response to an incident the year before when a group of Mexican American students unfurled a Mexican flag on the holiday and paraded around the campus, triggering tensions with white students who began chanting, "USA! USA!"
The school had seen at least 30 fights between white and Latino students, school officials said.
Upon seeing the white students wearing U.S. flags, Mexican American students called them racists and complained to Assistant Principal Miguel Rodriguez.
Fearing violence, the assistant principal told several of the white students wearing the American flag that they had to turn their shirts inside out or go home. They chose to leave.
So let's try to understand this: Mexican students flying a Mexican flag in a school in the United States of America isn't provocative (and is apparently protected as free speech), but American students flying an American flag in a school in the United States of America IS provocative (and is apparently not protected as free speech).
The inmates are truly running the asylum.
