Iowa Dad Disrupts Kindergarten Concert With Racist Chant (Video)

Face it, we’ve all been embarrassed by our parents. No doubt I have embarrassed my daughter on more than one occasion. But a father in Iowa really crossed the line between embarrassing and downright racist recently at a concert being performed by kindergartners.

During the Spring Concert being performed?by children at Perry Performing Arts Center, an interpreter was translating the English words into Spanish when a father in the audience stood up and began to shout:

?English only, USA.”

Can you imagine how the child of this ignorant redneck hayseed felt when he or she realized that was their dad making all the commotion? I’d bet the poor kid felt about two inches tall and wanted to run and hide.

Fortunately, school staff escorted the moron from the theater, but as he leaves he is still screaming like a total jackass. Most in the audience boo the man’s actions, but one fellow jerkweed pumps his fist in the air, and declares:

??Murica!?

Yes, good old ‘Murica. As if that is actually the name of the country we live in. I guess some people can only process so much information with their tiny squirrel-sized brains.

On Monday,?school superintendent M. Lynn Ubben sent an email to staff thanking them for the way they handled the situation at the concert and added:

?We live in a diverse/people rich community that values all people and our children truly are our most precious resource. As our elementary music instructor so eloquently said, ?Our children don’t see color, they just see their friends.?”

And that’s so very right: We are supposed to celebrate our diversity and the glory of how we are all unique, but some among us simply want to disperse hate to anyone they see as the slightest bit different. That’s not only embarrassing to a child, it’s an embarrassment to all of us if we don’t call these cretins out for their intolerance.
