None of the men who have died in our country’s wars died for the Mexican Flag. Everyone died for the U.S. flag.
In Texas , a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down. Guess who was expelled – the kid who took it down.
Kids in high school in California were sent home this year on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.
Enough is enough.
The below e-mail message needs to be viewed by every American, and every American needs to stand up for America .
We’ve bent over to appease the America-haters long enough. I’m taking a stand.
I’m standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. flag, can’t stand up. And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message. Let me make this perfectly clear!
THIS IS MY COUNTRY! And, because I make this statement DOES NOT mean I’m against immigration!!! YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY!
Welcome! To those who come through legally:
- Get a sponsor!

When will AMERICANS STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS??? We’ve gone so far the other way, bent over backwards not to offend anyone. But it seems no one cares about the AMERICAN CITIZEN being offended!
WAKE UP America !!!

What is going to happen if someone burns a mexican flag??? Are they going to be arrested?? Supreme court has ruled that burning the American flag is part of free speech….Makes you wonder who is really in control of this country. Even the highest court is ruling against the American People. If the mexicans love there flag and holidays so much…why dont they just go back to mexico????
Show the governmnet what real freedom means. VOTE! When you do, don’t forget the atrocities that our forced down out throats in the name of freedom and other people’s rights.
U.S. soil is U.S. soil. What is there not to understand about that? U.S. soldiers and American Patriots have died defending the designations of U.S. soil and the U.S. flag. U.S. military wives and families sacrifice much to defend our U.S. flag and soil.
The land that these schools are on is designated as U.S. soil, under U.S. governance, per U.S. law of the Land.
With that given, there is basic common sense understanding of etiquette that people inherently know about use of the U.S. flag and other foreign flags. To raise a foreign flag, the Mexican flag in this case, in a manner that is clearly known and seen as hostile defiance or invasive manner is offensive to the U.S. law of the Land and offensive to the American People.
There are simply common expected proper manners used in showing a foreign flag (canadian, mexican, british, irish, italian, etc.) that is for heritage or historical purposes that are not offensive and most times the U.S. flag should be alongside that foreign flag. A prime example is that of the Confederate flag,while that is still in the realm of U.S. soil terms, it is well understood that the Confederate flag is NOT to take a prominent position at our government buildings or institutions. The Confederate flag is a subject unto itself and I defer from that because we are talking about foreign flags here and particularly the problem with the Mexican flag. There have been other cases in the past few years involving other schools and elsewhere where the Mexican flag was raised in clearly public display of offensive hostile statement. Mind you, Americans have witnessed offensive displays of Guatemalean and Honduran flags during illegal Alien protests that clearly goes to the Border problem as well. The most notable offense was a school in CA, (Montbello?) where the Mexican flag was put above an upside down U.S. flag on a flag pole….(can’t fiind the picture at the moment).
The Texas school Superintendant or other school officials should have taken down the Mexican flag or allowed the student to have taken it down without fault. This would then be an opportunity for the Teachers to give a history, geography and cultural ettiquette lesson about the history of Texas and the current boundary line called the U.S.-Mexico Border designated in 1848. Teachers or superintendants of schools who go along with treating the U.S. flag as a disturbance or simply a meaningless cloth that matters not what flag is on the flag pole should check their own allegiance or common decency of defiance against their own country they live in and where there freedom comes from that they enjoy. It is not a matter of “multiculturalism” (which is a failed teaching) because the school is on U.S. soil and therefore the prominent flag on the flag pole is to be the U.S. flag. Yes, we are a “melting pot” but we all come under then becoming Americans.
Kids in our schools should be given no qualms or hesitations about wearing U.S. flag or patriotic shirts in schools ANY day of the year. Cinco de Mayo is a NOT a U.S. holiday because it has to do solely with Mexican history (war victory over the French in Mexico) and is a Mexican holiday that can be celebrated in Mexico. Cinco De Mayo along with St. Patrick’s Day and Columbus Day goes along lines of celebrating heritage and are fairly received as token holidays to such Americans. Contrarily it would be seen as offensive for school kids to wear Mexican flag shirts on the Fourth of July. Why? , because we are on U.S. soil, that is why and it is a U.S. Holiday. Also, Mexican Independence Day (Sept. 16) should NOT be celebrated on U.S. soil — which there are such parades that occur in California. Yes, we are a free country but such obvious offensive displays of foreign hostility should be discouraged and downtrodden as bad etiquette.
A known documented fact is that, schools in Mexico teach their kids that the SW U.S. is in fact Mexico, and that they hould have no worries about crossing the U.S. Border — so here are the beginnings of the ILLEGAL immigrant problem. Some schools in the Border States have also had teachers (who are pro-illegal Alien) teaching that the Border should not be considered an illegality because Mexico should be able to do what it wants. Recently, the AZ Legislature passed a bill to remove such teaching to students in AZ schools (I think Jan Brewer signed it).
Millions of Legal Immigrants have come to America to joyfully become Americans without problem, to join in creating prosperity that U.S. freedom allows. Millions of Immigrants are eagerly waiting in line to become legal Americans. Immigrants coming to America have a responsibility to adapt to U.S. laws and the English language. The decision to immigrate should include a desicive commitment to assimilate to American customs BEFORE an immigrant immigrates — if there is such a dislike then the would-be immigrant should stay in their Country of origin. It is not vice versa, where an immigrant comes to America to make demands (which is what the illegal Alien populous from the Mexican Border does) for the U.S. to change to its desires or give them what they want (an amnesty — per “comprehensive immigration reform”). — That Mexico than tell the U.S. how the U.S. Border is going to be or how our immigration laws are going to be…. OR to attempt to superimpose its illegal foreign authority in the U.S. by installing/promoting the Mexican ID Card. E. Pluribus Unum — from many we are One — undivided Nation with common U.S. principles and unifying language—and that is healthy, NOT destructive. So it goes to teaching. Many Mexican and Central American immigrants have legally immigrated to the U.S. and they are welcomed by Americans.
Where is the oath of government officials, State Legislators, Congress, the U.S. President in standing up for the U.S. flag and soil?
Where is the standing up for and helping protect American Citizens, Legal Immigrants and U.S. soil rather than helping accommodate the ILLEGAL Aliens violating said Citizens and U.S. soil? Illegal entry of the U.S. is a crime that begets deportation–just as a bankrobber gets arrested and goes to jail. Just as the AZ enforcement SB1070 law should NOT be sued for standing up for U.S. domains, the several to many sanctuary cities –aiding helping ILLEGAL Aliens (NY,SF,etc.) SHOULD BE sued for defying Federal law. The hypocritical statement by President Obama and others saying, “we should not have a patchwork of laws” for different States is exactly what we (and that he defends and does nothing to) have in terms of sanctuary cities……AS well as another now dysfunctional patchwork law –the Affordable Healthcare Act — that is in terms of Federal Law allowance, however the States do in fact set their own Laws to how what is appropiate.
What will your stance be on all these millions of illegal Mexican immigrants on the day our government grants them amnesty and blanket citizenship? Just like Ronald Reagan did back in the ’80s?
Republicans are fools. They believe you can bring millions Mexicans into the United States, get them SAVED and register them as Republicans and that makes them Americans. But Mexicans don’t think like this. Their foremost organization — La Raza — is Spanish for “The Race.” Mexicans know it’s all about race, Christine. And as soon as they gain numeric control in any significant region of the United States, they will follow the radicals among them and haul up the Mexican flag and clear all the gringos out of their territory. On that day everyone in this country and all over the world will realize that all this conservative/liberal talk about race and blood not mattering represents a woefully failed American ideology. On that day the breakup and disintegration of the United States will rapidly unfold.
It’s not about legality. It’s not about a flag. It’s all about blood and race. This is the kind of talk that makes modern day conservatives pee in their pants. But a day will come when what you believe about tax rates and religion won’t really matter; the only thing that will matter is: What tribe do you belong to?
