Were You Offended At Seeing All Those Chinese Waving Their Flags?

In San Francisco yesterday for the Olympic torch? Don't you think they should be waving the American flag? If they like China so much they should stay in China!

Why people so offended when Mexicans wave their flags, but not the Chinese? China will take over your country soon.


    




Chi Chi Chi chill...
Your very right!!!!!! the Asian immigrants are the ones that have better jobs than US citizens and business they own a lot of US territory, they are the ones that hire most of illegal immigrants and yet you don't hear anti immigrants protesting about them. They only do it with the Mexicans and they say they are not racist


martina
No it didn't offend me at all. Mexicans flags also don't offend me.

we're getting obsessed...what's wrong with that? Waving a flag!!??How dare them?

No, I was not offended at all.

I noticed one vocal Chinese anti from California ,did not address this question .

you should feel the same when they are addressing ,China (Communist country).


London Catlover
No it didn't offend me in the least. It isn't any more offensive than waving the Tibetan Flag or the American Flag or any other countries flag.


picopico
No, I don't think it's a big deal.


Pepe e' Plomero
Hey stupid - can you buy one thing that is not made in CHINA anymore ?? if you can't then you are waving the flag too.

I don't think the chinese flags are a big deal. Puerto ricans wave their flag in the puerto rican pride parade every year. And this is kind of similar since the olympics are in china.

What I am offended by is seeing the olympic flame on it's way to China. Someone needs to extinguish that thing, and fast.

I wasn't there,but if I was I wouldn't be offended! The Olympics have several different countries in it,what's the big deal?

If you call them Chinese why should they be waving the American flag? You've already categorized them into the Chinese section and admitted to them being Chinese.... is it wrong to wave the flag of your own country?

Wow.

It seems to me that discontent with the way things are run in China might be the reason why some if not all of the Chinese people at the protest were in the US in the first place. That doesn't mean that they should not retain a nostalgic feeling for their beautiful and wondrous homeland.

My aunt is 86 years old, and came to Canada from Scotland as a very young child. She still refers to the UK as "the old country". You should have heard her when Canada got a new flag, to replace the Red Ensign. No Union Jack! Was she some upset! Should she be deported? She left Scotland 83 years ago.

Secondly, American citizens who were born in China are not Chinese. They are Americans.

I'm a legal alien resident in Taiwan. When we lived in Taipei, the Canadian Society had a celebration and we waved Canadian flags at the barbecue. Does that mean we should all go back to Canada?

If Chinese people in America, or anyone else
1. obey the law
2. respect the American flag

then they can say or do whatever they want. It's called freedom of speech, and the right of peaceful assembly.

By the way, I'm a teacher in a public junior high school in Taiwan. You may be assured that I stand at attention during the ROC national anthem--and I scolded a kid for letting his flag drag along the floor when he took it down at the end of the school day.

If I were living in the Peoples Republic of China, I would have done the same thing there too.

Free country. at least they were not plotting to kill us all like some groups are


yuck fou
When the chinese flag is hovered over ol glory,then i will have a problem.When i see an American flag being burned then i will start throwing fist's along with roundhouses and elbows.


chinesejidiot
National Pride doesn't mean anything to you? America is built on immigration and thus must be open. Reverse question.

Were you offended at seeing all those Tibet supporter waving Tibetan flags? and its not even a country. Why don't they all move to Tibet then China would be on even more pressure to grant independence.

Simple, Mexicans wave their flag to TRY to tell the US government that they have rights after braking the law. Meaning, they break the law and then they have the nerve to DEMAND amnesty while waving the Mexican flag? come on.

Regarding the Chinese, it's olympics, a "WORLD EVENT". It's not a parade demanding amnesty.

Don't Rain on the Chinese Parade in San Francisco...!

Your in the People's Republic of San Francisco. With all the liberals that live there, what do you expect for them to do, act like they live in America? Communist and liberals have a lot in common. Neither care for America.


Tony Lam
its not a big deal as long as they don't overdo it... i mean its like baseball teams u know what im saying?


don_vvvvito
wasn't offended but it tells how a lot of people in america "truly" see themselves.....especially immigrants within the last 50 to a 100 years..........
for the ones like me whose family has been around for multigenerations, no matter where our ancestors came from the american flag is the only one we put up.........

They only came here to leech off the system. They can afford homes there but claim only 12 thousand in income taxes.


Punkin
As long as they are legally here and aren't dragging our flag through the mud, spitting on it and stomping on it -- they can wave the Chinese flag all they want.


binko
It did me and I am Chinese. We are now Americans and it should be the American flag on top and then the Chinese flag, I mean if they liked it so much over there they could make the move, not me we are here to stay. But you know what the heck at least we work and help the country and don't whine and have our bottom lip stuck out. Good question though, keepu pthe good work.
