• I don’t care what country you came from. You came here to the United States of America. You are free to share your customs, your holidays, your dress, your foods…But I will not put mine away for you.
If you are offended by my customs, my religion, my holidays, my foods, my flag and expect me to remove them in my country you are WRONG! I will not bow down to your ways, I will not lose my rights for you, I WILL NOT hide my flag. I WILL NOT take a knee during the National Anthem, I WILL say the Pledge of Allegiance with pride, I will honor the Bible and I will worship the Lord Jesus Christ.

Two quick responses.
First, many (most?) people come to America for a better life. But the "better life" available in America is due to American standards and principles. If you want a better life, then adopt the better standards. Seems to me too many bring hot dogs to the party, but expect to eat prime rib. IE, they want a defacto free ticket.
Second, the public ed mantra in CA is "social justice - equality - diversity". As applied, it means all societal values and cultures in the world are equal to or superior to American values. Everyone should be equal even if they can't/won't produce).
