Lumberton High School in Texas has come under fire after a video of the cheerleading team’s 9/11 tribute routine went viral over the weekend.

In the routine, Lumberton performs over a mashup of Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless The USA,” media reports from Sept. 11, 2001 and George W. Bush speech clips.

WATCH:

The team has stated that routine was meant to show “appreciation & acknowledgement” for people affected by the tragedy, yet many have criticized the video as “tasteless” and “horrible.”
