Flags desecrated at military homes in Weatherford (Texas)
WFAA, ABC 8, Dallas/Fort Worth ^ | Monday, Aug 11 at 10:27 PM | Todd Unger

At least seven family homes—some with strong military ties—have had their American flags ripped down, set ablaze, and destroyed in the past few days.

Mike Freiley and his wife woke up to find their flagpole charred, and the flag destroyed on Friday morning.

“It burnt and melted right there on the pole,” said Freiley, a 30-year veteran of the United States Navy. “Yeah, it makes me really angry.” …

Illegal aliens and Marxist activists trying to instigate unrest.

Mexico maintains the lie that all of the U.S. southwest belongs to them.

I hope there is some video. Sounds like it is time to set a trap for these anti-Americans.

* Mexico maintains the lie that all of the U.S. southwest belongs to them. *

Ah yes, the Mazatlan lie.

The ONLY people that can say they were in AZ first are the Native Americans that were already on this side of the border. The descendants of the very few Mexican citizens that were in AZ 150 years and did not choose to go over the border back into Mexico at any point in the last 150 years can claim they were here first. They were very few in number. The ones that stayed in Mexico have NO claim. Any illegals sneaking in now have ZERO claim. The United States won it 150 years ago. Mexico had AZ for only about 25 years and there were only around 10,000 in the Southwest when we won the war.

The United States was very generous when we won against Mexico. Mexico started the war. We won and could’ve taken the entire country fair and square as the spoils of war. We even paid them for part of the land!

I propose the Reconquisadoracion of Mexico*

We charge Mexico for the land that they have now. Sell all their valuable assets, charge Mexico for ALL the social services that we have squandered on illegal aliens, including hospital visits.

Charge Mexico for all the lost wages and unemployment paid to legal Americans over the decades because the illegals took their jobs and made everyone’s pay in the USA lower by having a much too large pool of labor.

Put all the illegal aliens into Honduras and Guatemala. Mexico has a very small border to protect. Pay those countries a few billion dollars out of what we make on the sale of the assets of Mexico to send every citizen of Mexico into their country since legally ALL of Mexico should, by rights, belong to the USA.

Trespassers found on private property at night may be shot IIRC.

Texans take property rights seriously.

I have a double-burglar bar on the front door. One directly on the door, the other on the entry way. I used to hang a flag on the outside burglar bar but it was stolen. Now I have to keep it on the inner burglar bar. I suspect that it was probably Mexican gang/s who stole it.

“I hope there is some video.”

That’s why I installed security cams around my home. I dont live in the projects by any strech but it’s nice to know you can review what went on outside at a later date if something does happen.

It’s happened also in Winona, Minn not far from where I live. They have a photo of the perp from a private security camera, and it looked like a young male with a moustache. He’s burned ten or more flags on private residences.

A few antique bear traps under the leaves around the flag pole should put a stop to this anti-American vandalism.

Once he made it actually up to my house, and if he made it past the dogs, it would not end well for Mr. hippie boy.

Those are unlawful in Texas. Had a neighbor that paid a $300 fine for using one.

Shotguns with lots of rock salt loads, and paint ball guns with lots of red paint to mark them as the communists they are.

Yeah - I know.

But we can dream, can't we?
