They shouldnt!! They come here illegally (some, not all) expect us to pay for there retirement with social security, give them food stamps, and give them a drivers license when they cant even speak English. Do you think they heard the phrase"When in Rome..." We fly our flag, why cant they?? Give me a break

The Southwest belongs to the United States. It has since the 1800s. Why all of a sudden, are people claiming it belongs to Mexico? If Mexico wants it, then Mexico can just try to fucking take it. I'll be waiting for them, along with millions of other service members and armed citizens.

Because chances are the person carrying the flag is an illegal who wants to keep Mexican citizenship but work in the US for all the financial advantages.  Demonstrations by illegals should be dispersed by riot police and the participants arrested, and the Mexican flags burned.  Their arrogant ways and demands for the right to steal from American taxpayers is an affront to every US citizen.  There should be no tolerance at all for these Mexican flag-wavers.  The problem is only going to get worse.\n\nAnd continued incursions into the US by the Mexican Army should be met by a declaration of war.

Mexico has EVERYTHING it needs to be a top notch nation. except desire. These people either lack the know how or desire to do it. I sense a civil war is going to happen in Mexico soon. The people there need to find their "Neo"

They used to fly the Mexican flag in the apartments here. It was inside the metal screendoor, but it was still very visible.\n\nI came from Vietnam, but I am now an American citizen. I do not fly a Vietnamese flag; I fly the American flag. And anyone who comes here and insists upon  flying their home country's flag ought not do so. But you are asking to write it in law.\nWell, there are ways and means of dealing things without passing laws. The people themselves can make it know that they do not accept such behavior from the immigrants. Stand up for what you believe! If bullied, why not try bullying back?

Most Southern people I know fly the confederate flag because to them it symbolizes the south and their heritage as their relatives served in the Civil War.  Most really don't look at it as a flag of oppression and slavery.  I don't think they view it that way at all.  For many years you never heard a word about this until blacks made an issue of it.  It was the war between the states and many good people including black people on both sides lost their lives.

Being a legal immigrant, I must say it's about time that those Mexicans either learn the beauty of the English language, or beat it. It isn't that difficult to hold on to your heritage while respecting the country you chose to live in. For goodness' sakes, as much as I respect the Mexican Americans, why isn't the National Anthem sang in Hungarian then? Because then it would only be fair to have it in every language ever migrated to the US.

Good point! I totally agree with you. And another thing that stumps me is when thy go around waving the mexican flag. I thought they wanted to be Americn citizens.

Illegals get free health care.  Americans do not get free health care.\n\nWhen I see the illegals parading down the streets of this coultry proudly displaying the Mexican flag, it really makes me extremely angry because they are foreign nationals and they do not have any right to do that.  Its actually an act of war for a foreign national to hoist any flag other than the US flag and they should be treated accordingly  -- i.e. shot.\n\nWhen Japan and Germany tried to do that here in the 40's, we went to war and explained forcefully that they better not try again.  Today, far too many people are just looking the other way.

They wave that flag because they don't want to assimilate into America, they just want the money and stay Mexican.  They are the only so called immigrants to do this.  Send 'em packing.

I can't speak for "who would want to," but Mexico is known as having some of the most draconian immigration laws in the world. It's funny that a government that actually encourages its citizens to violate the immigration laws of another country are the first to say "we don't want illegals here."\n\nQuite ironic.

I completely agree. To all you morons saying we stole this land, and they were here first, I have this to say: Pull your head out of your ass, and get a clue. It does not matter HOW this land became The USA, all that matters is that it IS the USA.   No one treats the Mexicans like criminals, only the illegal immigrants, because they are in fact criminals.     I know not ALL of the Mexicans feel like this, but there is a large group talking about taking back this land, and some other non sense, well that sounds like they are trying to wage war to me. While the flag flying may not be treasonous, surely trying to wage war is.  The complete lack of common sense by certain people on here never ceases to amaze me.

Thats a damn good question. Im not racist one bit but enough is enough. How dare they come to our Country and wave the Mexican flag, that is SO disrespectful! What do you think would happen if we tried to pull that shit in Mexico??

I agree with you, if i went to Germany to live and get a job i would learn German.  If i choose that to be my home and to become a citizen i would not dis them and refuse to say their anthem.  I would not spit on them and fly my flag.  And i certainly not expect them to learn my language because i was too lazy and or dumb to learn theirs.  The mexicans need to get with the program or go home.

Most of these kids wanted a day off from school.  What is this all about - waving the Mexican Flag.  That sure sends a good, clear message.  They like Mexico better than America - if they like Mexico so much - send them back there.\n\nI was fine with the protests until they all started pulling out the Mexican Flag.  Go home.

You need to go back to what ever country you came from. I don't understand the protesters they carry foreign flags and they want to be considered Americans. If you're holding a flag other than the American flag go back to that country.
