What do flags mean?



In Southern California, some high school students took down the US flag and raised the Mexican flag above an upsidedown US flag. Where do you think their allegiances lie? They couldn't possibly consider themselves Mexicans and not Americans, could they? They'd never do anything to hurt the US, would they?

Bear in mind that these are high school kids. Do you think they came up with this mindset on their own? Or perhaps their parents, the radio stations, everyone they look up to has a similar mindset.

And all this protesting just because eleven million people broke the law. That's hardly noteworthy. Everybody breaks the law. There's no need to yell and scream and kick these eleven million out of our country. Oh wait. Are the protesters for the law-breakers?

Should we make it a felony to wave the flag of a foreign nation in public or hang a foreign flag above the American flag, even on private property? The lack of respect and appreciation for America displayed by the Mexican flag-waving Mexicans (presumably living and working here to take advantage of our great nation) is indeed shameful.
