Guess they should have chanted "Remember the Alamo," eh? That would have sparked some shared regional patriotism.

Context ya pricks. You can shout "Fire" all you want on the sidewalk, but do it in a crowded theater and it's no longer cool.

Chanting "USA" at a sporting event where the other team is predominately Mexican is racist. There`s no other reason to chant that at a high-school basketball game in San Antonio.

I`m Texas-born, but the state continues to embarrass me occasionally.

The world has gone soft nowadays. People will get offended at anything. This reminds me of the story about a high school football game where students from the school that won held up a sign that said "You Mad Bro?" after the game, and the losing school cried racism.

...it's more embarrassing for the chanters, it`s seen in Europe as naive jingoism, much like other unquestioning regimes around the world, also a little corny.
