Mexisota

Drudge has a story about some school children who were kicked off a bus - in America (Minesota, I believe) - for speaking English.

Rachel Armstrong sent her kids to pick up the bus as usual Monday, but after the driver let the kids on, he told them he would not pick them up again. He even said he wouldn't take them home that afternoon.

Armstrong left work early Tuesday, forced to pick up her kids from Phalen Lake Elementary School.

Her twin girls, 10, and her son, 8, were kicked off their regular school bus. They were told by the bus driver the route is for non-English speaking students only.

"I was furious. I was at work and I was just mad." Armstrong said. "I felt like we were being discriminated because we speak English. Just because they speak English, they can't ride the school bus. I mean, this is America, right?"

Administrators at St. Paul Public Schools admit the district made a mistake when it stranded the kids at school Monday.

Someone ought to inform Miss Armstrong that she no longer lives in America, but in what is now afectionately called Mexisota. And although the school district apologized - only for stranding the children - they will no longer be able to ride the bus.
