And calling for a revolution against global "capitalism and imperialism", amongst other things.

This guy is a high school history teacher by the name of Ron Gochez who teaches at Santee High School in Los Angeles. This is far worse than anything I've ever seen at a TEA Party... TEA Parties are calling for the government to change. This guy is openly calling for a revolution and bordering on sedition. Or am I way off base in hearing that from him?

For the record, I don't have an issue that the guy is a teacher; except for the fact that he's a history teacher but he's calling California stolen and occupied Mexico. He obviously needs to go a re-read history if that's what he really thinks. So, here it is...

Parts of it did belong to Mexico, that much is true.

But borders change, and If I remember right, the American Government at the end of the mexican war paid an amount of money to the Mexican government.

So it's not really stolen, as such.

My opinion for this situation AND the situation of the American Indians is this: THE BEST MAN WON!!! That's why it's called war, cuz it sucks dude... get the fuck over it and move back to what is NOW your country. Want it back? Come get it.

If you don't believe what he is saying, then don't listen to him... it a simple concept.

I don't buy what he's selling, so I won't listen to him and that will be the end of it for me. Aren't you big on free speech? So let him speak

I'm not big on free speech. I believe if what you're saying is stupid you have the right to shut up and go the fuck home and stop wasting my time. :24:

Oh my God, we agree yet again! :D
As long as the guy is teaching verifiably true history at work he can say what he wants away from work. You can be sure that it would have surfaced by now if he was teaching that CA was stolen.
