Did any USA Citizens see the tiny USA flag flying below the BIG Mexican flag?

It should be the other way around.  If we did that in Mexico (tiny Mexican flag with LARGE American flag), what do you think would happen?

But one point I would like to mention, here in Texas we have a section in our constitution concerning the Texas flag, which is to be flown at the same height as the USA flag.\nUsed to annoy my wife to no end until I showed her the Texas consitution.\nI got this from: www.thesakeofargument.com/archives/000717.html \nwhere you find everything about the flag etiquette.

It is a common urban legend that the Texas flag is the only state flag that is allowed to fly at the same height as the U.S. flag. Allegedly, Texas has this right inherently (as a former independent nation), or because it negotiated special provisions when it joined the Union (this version has been stated as fact on a PBS website). However, the legend is false. Neither the Joint Resolution for Annexing Texas to the United States nor the Ordinance of Annexation contain any provisions regarding flags. According to the United States Flag Code, any state flag can be flown at the same height as the U.S. flag. The U.S. flag must be on its right (the viewer's left), however.\n\n\nHope this helps :)

believe us we are we are beating ourselves up for letting it get this bad , lol as far as tv goes all i see is tear jerker stories about the poor illegals . our side is hardly covered but that doesn't matter because most Americans are sick of illegals come legal or not at all.  and i think the media is starting to catch up with the rest of us. it  could have been all that demanding and stupid move to change the national anthem , or flag thing ? or could  it be old news is no news anyway i would like ask you the same question no criticism about mexico strange

No. But as JD has pointed out on other posts, it's really ironic, because that is actually a distress signal (Hanging our flag upside down.) Our nation is in distress and it is at the hand of the illegal invasion that is occurring.

I was glued to the TV for those days, I know it happened.  \n\nAs far as the flag waving thing, if you notice the flag is fixed along the top by a straight rod and loose on the bottom.  This is because there is no air on the moon to cause it to flutter around.  The astronauts couldn't get the little rod to extend fully, so it appears as if the flag is waving.  Really, it isn't.

My friend does because supposedly he burned the Mexican Flag.  Because he was tired of being compared to Mexicans even though he is Puertro Rican.

If you noticed, there were less Mexican flags flying during these protests (even though there were MANY) because the organizers (la raza) were getting them to give them their Mexican flags, and giving them American flags to wave during the march. In other words, they were trying to hide what they are really all about. They didn't want all of America to see all those Mexican flags, because they know that there will be massive backlash, like there had been previously. These organizers are not stupid. They are spin wizards and they are going to try and dress this up to look harmless. If they hadn't interceded you would have seen nothing but Mexican flags, because that is where the hearts of these protesters truly lies - in Mexico. I say send them AND their flags back to Mexico! Adios!

When flown with flags of states, communities, or societies on separate flag poles which are of the same height and in a straight line, the flag of the United States is always placed in the position of honor - to its own right.\n..The other flags may be smaller but none may be larger.\n..No other flag ever should be placed above it.

Some EDUCATIONAL Reading For Citizens\n\nhttp://www.newswithviews.com/Devvy/kidd185.htm\n\nI have friends who live in the Phoenix area that speak fluent Spanish. Over the weekend before the big marches on April 10, 2006, Spanish speaking radio was sending this message: "Hide what's in your heart today. We know in your heart your allegiance is to Mexico, but today use your head. Americans were upset about Mexican flags and our show of solidarity for reconquista. Now we must wear white shirts and wave the American flags being handed out. It will be difficult because we know in your heart your love is for Mexico, but hide it today."

Usually it is a distress signal, but foreigners living in the US do it to show how much they disrespect this country and spit on it. I have seen cars driven by turban-heads and spanish looking people with the flag hung upside down from their antenna, or with stickers of the flag upside down on their back window.  Of course, I am a "racist" for saying if they hate it here so much, they should go home.  \n\nI wonder what would happen if we went to their country and did that to their flag?  Or burned their flag on their soil?
