Live Oak High School Students Sent Home For Wearing American Flag Shirts

4 Live Oak High School teens were sent home on May 5th for wearing t-shirts depicting the American flag.
There are a few things that are misunderstood about the "Mexican Holiday Cinco de Mayo".  
The first one being that May 5th is Mexico's Independence Day - which is actually September 15th.  On May 5th, 1862 Mexico defeated France in the Battle of Puebla.  This was obviously an important victory but it is not a national holiday in Mexico.
