Featured How do you feel about anything but the American flag, flown in the States?

..... here in America?

I am tired of seeing the Mexican flag flying everywhere I look [but this is California, and they believe we took their land, illegally, from them, and they want it back -per some protect posters by groups demanding amnesty]. I know the Confederate flag can no longer be sold in this state, but I've heard of Muslims flying the flags of their homelands too, in some parts of the nation, like in Michigan!

So, should it be illegal, or at least frowned on for flying other country flags in America? And even if it isn't illegal, how do you feel about other cultures flying their flags in this country?

 

There's a difference between flying the flag on a special holiday then having hundreds of them being waved in the streets by illegals demanding amnesty! Or illegals causing a riot like situation during the Mexican world cup games, by taking over downtown streets and breaking laws, causing police to mobilize and riot teams to go on tactical alert! There a difference when nearly every house on the neighborhood street flies mexican flags seven days a week. Or when a Mexican flag is flown above an American flag in Reno, NV - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nONjlZ8YMkA

I think if the people are so proud of their country to fly that flag daily, while claiming to want US citizenship, is not showing loyalty to the nation they want to take them in dispite their being here against the law!

At the present time, California is has passed a law to ban the sale of display of the confederate flag - http://jonathanturley.org/2014/05/0...s-to-ban-sale-or-display-of-confederate-flag/ BUT they have no problem with sale of and displaying of the Mexican flag or anyother South American flag!

Here is a story of a HS student suspended for flying a confederate flag on his truck - http://www.nj.com/mercer/index.ssf/...erate_flag_on_truck_in_steinert_high_lot.html

The concensus for not alowing the displaying of a confederate flag is because of the slaves and offending blacks! And if you remember, Virginia ran into tons of controversy when the wanted to fly the rebel flag under the starts and stripes at the capitol!

I see nothing wrong with what you suggest, but I am talking about hypocritcal contradictions, and the offense that illegal border jumpers are having on Americans when they have the nerve to wave their flags at amnesty rallies! Kind of defeats the purpose, in my mind! :BangHead:

 

That is not what I am referring to....reread what I said. Here in cali we are over run with mexican flags and it would improve my view of their desire to be citizens if they displayed some form of loyalty towards the country I love. I should think most feel as me?

 

Try stepping back ....

... and instead of operating out of the liberal box, listen to what is being said. There are times you make sense, and then there are times that I swear you've been drinking the kool aid! I am talking about people that want us to accept them, in the state of being poor, needy and here illegally, and I am thinking that they hurt their cause by waving their countries flag in the face of the very people who will pay, initially, to get them settled and on the way to being a citizen.

Let me ask this, would you like it if you led a group of people to Jesus, and they started showing up to services and church events with a Lutheran flag, or a Catholic flag, or a Pentagram on a flag. And these people stood up in your First Batpist church and started marching around singing or chanting things related to the emblam or flag they brought to lift up and display showing where they came from or out of!

I think the deacons and a majority of your church would be offended, if not you C4K! This is the point I am trying to get across. I don't care if they hang their falgs in the privacy of their home, but to go and protest demanding amnesty and drivers licenses while waving their flag and shouting Mexico chants and singing Mexican songs, that is rude. If they arrived to protest and waved american flags and sang the national anthem in spanish, that would be something that said to me, they want to be part of what we are all about!

But their failure to assimilate and still carry loyalty for their homeland is a slap in the face of Smericans everywhere!
