Students showing their Mexican-American pride walked out of class at Live Oak High School on Thursday, and rallied at the Morgan Hill Civic Center, calling the actions of the students who wore the American T-shirts on Cinco de Mayo offensive. They also demanded to speak with the mayor.

"I think they should apologize because it is a Mexican heritage day," Annicia Nunez, a Live Oak High student, told NBC BayArea. "We don't deserve to be disrespected like that. We wouldn't do that on Fourth of July."

The ignorance of the student above, Annicia Nunez, is quite apparent since school is not in session on the Fourth of July as it is a national holiday in this country.
A holiday which celebrates the fight for the independence of a country that they now live in, and enjoy the benefits thereof.
