French president says ‘too many foreigners’ in France
By Laura Rozen
Fighting an uphill reelection campaign, French President Nicolas Sarkozy declared Tuesday that there are too many foreigners in France.
"Our system of integration is working increasingly badly, because we have too many foreigners on our territory and we can no longer manage to find them accommodation, a job, a school," Sarkozy said on a three-hour French TV debate show Tuesday, the Guardian reported.

So now you are assuming the Hispanic kids are foreigners.

Do you coach at that school?
I'm not assuming. I read an article which claimed the chants were racist because the Edison district was comprised of primarily Hispanic and immigrant students from Mexico. In today's news-speak, "immigrant" is the code word for illegal. San Antonio is already 75% Hispanic. I don't have to assume anything that has already been reported or is fact.
Kinda sorta... first you said it's probably not racist, but then you said their motivations were "questionable." That just sounded a bit conflicting to me!

Questionable, as in "Why are they chanting it," not as in, "I don't think it was a good idea."
I can't respond to your post because what I have to say to you is not allowed here because of the censor police!
It has nothing to do with lack of political courage right? Blame it on political correctness. If you don't have the gumption to say what you mean, don't whine about censorship. This is all on you and no one else.
Confusing! I thought the OP is a right winger. How can you blame this on the lefty's? Please explain.
Discuss the topic not the posters. Unless of course your a "lefty" and are allowed to by some.
