Mexican Flag vs. American Flag
posted Wednesday, 3 October 2007
Tensions in this Country over the illegal immigration issue have been mounting steadily over the past couple of years. Americans are increasingly expressing their aggravation over the never ending push by the Mexican community to remake the United States in their image and the level of tension may soon reach the breaking point.
While browsing the internet I came across a story that left me shaking my head and asking: when will this Nation stand up and defend its language and culture? As the video linked to the story shows, it takes the average American citizen to step up and defend this Country’s flag!
This afternoon we received a call from a viewer who said a business near downtown Reno was flying a Mexican flag above an American flag... which is in fact illegal. Flag of Mexico Flown Illegally Over Reno Business
We can’t depend on the pandering politicians seeking the coveted Hispanic vote to defend our southern border from the steady stream of illegal immigrants and the Mexican president openly says that they are coming and we have no right to stop them. In Washington they debate the fence and they look for comprehensive immigration reform (which means they are looking for a way to keep as many illegal alien workers, and potential future voters, in this country as possible) but they are not defending our Nation and its sovereignty.
The American veteran who stepped up to the challenge and cut the American flag off the pole and rescued it from the people who were openly disrespecting it and violating the law is likely the first of many average people who will step up and defend their Nation. While the government seems content to endlessly debate the issue and resolve nothing, the people of this Country are becoming increasingly outraged by the flagrant defiance of our laws and are taking matters into their own hands.
I fear that this is just the beginning and that it will not take much for these confrontations to turn violent. It is time for our elected officials to take the bull by the horns and defend this Country and its National Identity. Close the southern border, make English the official language of the United States, deny illegal immigrants access to social programs, and DEFEND THE FLAG!
