This is unreal!! Does it get you fired up as well?

Hold em Rox.

Go to you tube and you will see the whole thing unfold....for the people asking what the Americans that were there did to stop it. My answer to you is there were barricades and the police were in the middle of the 2 groups, there were several of Americans who were visibly upset and trying to get over there to take the flag down, but the police would not let them go, so the cops tried to take it down and totally effed that up!!
And yes it is unreal.....raising another country's flag in the US (in this instance) was in my opinion an act of war !! And should have been dealt with immediately!!

And these are the people who think that they should be just allowed to live our country whenever they want. It is a privilege to live in the US, not a right. That right must be earned in some way. While it would be nice for anyone who wants a better job to come to America, it is not feasible. Everyone who wants to live in this country should have to earn that right, and disrespecting the flag and the nation is doing the exact opposite.

Yes, we heard it has been posted a long time ago. disgusting yes.

Speedfreak

Yes I do. Would the American people have tolerated this behavior in the 40's and 50's? What has happened to people, to politicians? It makes me wonder if government has abandoned me and other Americans (yet they demand my money).

This conduct cannot be tolerated and must be nipped in the bud in no uncertain terms. I want to see politicians with a spine stand up to this and other similar types of unacceptable demonstration. Such a mindset (by illegals) is like a cancer that must not be permitted to spread.

I watched the video that your link provided-- this is getting way out of control-- the people that are standing by watching this unfolded have to be thinking --this is not really happening --

My very first thought " Let them try that in South Louisiana" but after thinking about --I think the people were thinking This just cant be happening in America..........

Your damn straight it gets me fired up. This country has become way too civilized. Something needs to be done and NOW.

inzaratha

That is disgusting.
And the really sick thing is a lot of these protestors are American. If they care about Mexican rights so much why don't they go to Mexico and try to improve conditions there so people won't feel the need to leave their homeland.
Most illegals don;t really want to get caught by the police so they would not be doing something so brazen.

America needs to have English as its official language. Illegals should be deported immediately, regardless of whether or not they have procreated since sneaking into our country.

This pathetic act was a direct attack on the moral and social fabic of the American spirit, and a spit in the face to all the brave Americans and their families who have died to protect the sovernty of our great country!
The link below has an article about the maywood protest and some vid clips, hope this helps people see the true nature of these people and the immense threat they pose to the security and unity of America.

Renegade. AMERICAN NATIVE!

It's disgusting. It was disgusting when it happened and it's still disgusting today.

antmanbee

Don't know what the point of the link was.
They trying to sell something.
And I sure ain't giving them my e mail address.
Re upside down American flag....
I wonder if they are aware that it is a distress signal?
If they have forgotten what distress is they should go back down to Mexico for a while to refresh their memories.
They think they gonna strongarm their way in?
Maybe the feds won't do anything about them but some states are because the immigration issue is nothing to the feds but a source of great expense to individual states.
I felt rather kindly towards illegals in the past.
But that was before May 1.
The we are in your face and we are going to come to your country and do whatever the hell we want day. Cause we doan need no stinking laws.
Guess again amigos.

Mr Hex Vision

Lol you just got to love the USA

capton_64

they should of arrested the morons. that's what makes us Americana's made. people disrespecting are country, are nation like that. they wouldn't like it if we did that to them. maybe we should. do they honestly think that's going to help there cause. i sure hope not man.

Debra R

yes it does

cliffpotts2005

Do you have a link on that story? I would like to post it in my groups. Thanks for the heads up. I will look for it, too.

I did find the story in World Net Daily, not other sources like AP. NPR was talking about the immigration issue today, and the speaker on "The World" was saying that people are upset because they feel as if the US is being invaded.

The real problem according to their reporter are the unaddressed problems in Mexico as I raised here and other places some months ago.

enterprisefence

oh yea that's not right at all in the USA its hard to say w. t. f this is America anything go i guess but still I'm having trouble thinking this could really happen but like i said this is America free speech the say anything at all srry but true
PEACH ON EARTH

fathead

Ah, but for how long?

Stand-up Philosopher

thats california. if the people who live there are willing to put up with that kind of behavior its up to them.

LeAnne

This shouldn't surprise you - enrage maybe - but not surprise.

For some really strange and unexplainable reasons, weirdo groups do really *** nine things to try and promote their agendas.

The Islamic terrorists video tape beheadings and kill innocent men, women and children to promote a loving, peaceful and tolerant religion.

Anti-abortion activists kill and maim doctors and bomb clinics to promote their "right to life" agenda.

Why is it any stranger that the illegal aliens make demands to accommodate their language, give them amnesty, welfare, free medical treatment and anything else their little hearts desire?

Get used to it - the world is a strange and mystical place.

commonsense

And their are places in the south where they fly the Stars and Bars - what are you going to do about it?

sassy

Fired up isnt exactly the words I would have used.. <smiles>
And what, if anything, did any of the American people who were there, do..
I know I would have done something..

Dave

I am in favor of allowing people to enter our country if they wish to come here, but that's just inconsiderate of our hospitality.

America: Love it or Leave it.

coragryph

"Claimed" as in, claimed through force?

Or just walked up outside and changed the flags while nobody was watching?

bostonianinmo

So what? At least they didn't burn it! If they didn't use force, no punishable rule of law was broken. (The Flag Code does not provide any penalties for improper display of the flag.)
