The United States is made up of so many different groups of immigrants. People have fled to the shores of the United States far before it was even called the United States. Many times throughout our history we have had struggles between classes and political factions and one thing remained consistent… we were fighting in America, for America.
Today, there has been a disturbing trend of Middle Eastern, radical jihadist, communist and Mexican flags being hoisted at rallies and political protests. In some twisted form of solidarity, the people who fled oppressive regimes are still emotionally attached to their place of origin.
All attempts to assimilate such people are met with scorn and accusations of bigotry.
Yet what do you call it when your supposed fellow countrymen hoist another nations flag?
We should call it BS.
There is no reason to feel ashamed of one’s nationality and original homeland but their is a time to leave it behind.
When you come to America, you should leave behind the place that failed you.
It’s not love it or leave it, it’s love it or lose it.
Of late, the anti-Trump AstroTurf crowd has been waving Mexican flags about to demonstrate their obvious love of Mexico over the United States so perhaps the time has come to see what this ma mean.
Please see the next page for Mexican flag madness at anti-Trump protests.
My family immigrated here from Ireland. My wife’s family immigrated here from Germany. Our ancestors came to assimilate to a new country, not bring their birth country with them. They didn’t fly their previous country’s flag. They flew and stood behind the US flag. They went thru Ellis Island and became LEGAL IMMIGRANTS. They didn’t demand special treatment. They came here and worked hard UNDERSTANDING THE IMPORTANCE OF CONTRIBUTING TO THEIR NEW COUNTRY WITHOUT DISDAIN AND DISREGARD FOR ITS LAWS AND REGULATIONS. They knew that there were good reasons for following immigration laws and that without law and order there is chaos and disorder.
ILLEGAL-contrary to or forbidden by law, especially criminal law.
Go back to the$#%&!@*hole that is Mexico then assholes. We fly the red white and blue here.
Leeches are what they are called.. ^^^^

Love trumps Hate
Trump=Hate
Bernie equals =Love
Pick them all up load them on dump trucks then dump them on the other side of our new wall we WILL build!!!
As a Mexican American and a veteran of this country I too disagree with the raising of the Mexican flag, but if the full inforcement of immigration policy I hope it gets inforced equally across the board and not only mexicams. There are a huge number or aisians, indians, middle eastern, european which some are white…. and not just the same group that is always targeted.
Trump doesn’t hate Hispanic Americans black Americans Irish Americans in the hate Americans hate illegal immigrants coming over today in American jobs hurting American people trying to change the
The wall should also have gun towers on it
Raising foreign flags on American soil other than on embassy grounds or international restaurant advertising and the like should be considered an act of war.
