I never thought I’d see the day when I would be singing the praises of a cartoonist that works for a liberal pack of idiots like the ones at MSNBC. Well, strike me down but today is the day. Political cartoonist Daryl Cagle crafted this fine piece of art that depicts the Mexican flag, specifically the taco chicken in the center, as being shot to pieces. This is, of course, to reflect the fact that the drug lords are shooting up the place down there.
What is truly ironic is that for once it’s not the American flag being desecrated and lampooned by a cartoonist of considerable fame. For once, it’s not an American flag being maliciously targeted while the American people are being expected to stand still and take it. For once, it’s not us.
The part that brings laughter to my belly is the uproar this cartoon is creating in Mexico, in both the editorial pages of the Mexican press, and the Mexican embassy. This letter, written by Ricardo Alday of the Mexican embassy, takes issue with the cartoon because it has brought a “negative response” from the people of Mexico. Negative response?
Mr. Alday, let me remind you of the negative response the people of the United States are having due to 14 million of your fellow Mexican countrymen flowing over the borders illegally and costing the American taxpayers billion$ every year to support these people. Let me remind you of the negative response from us because, unlike this cartoon, these 14 million people are breaking our laws by coming here. Let me remind you, Mr. Alday, of your country’s refusal to do anything about it.
People all across the world routinely make a mockery of the American flag by burning it in the streets of whatever third-world plot of sand they reside on. Maybe it’s time the people of our country start burning some of theirs.
I do, so I second everything dragnet2 said...when those scumbags start respecting our flag, our national anthem, our heritage and our laws, I'll respect theirs. Until then, they can kiss my red, white and blue a**.
Scouts out! Cavalry Ho!
I had a problem with watching Mexican protestors walking on an American flag and an Arizona flag, upon which they had scrawled their B.S. slogans.
So their rag is sacrosanct, like images of Moohamhead?
Go p*** up a rope.
Respect?
Ya think this incident below was the first?
Can I be honest? Mexicans are some of the most disrespectful people on this planet.
This desecration of our flag occurred on the main lawn directly in front of the Arizona Capital building on 7-31-2010....All caught on video.
These illegals and their Mexican pro-illegal alien supporters, spray painted, "Burn this racist city to the ground" and placed a toilet seat on Old Glory as they walked all over our flag....
LOL
The ‘Mexican people’ don’t have the power or the will to stop it. Do we?
Whateverrrrrrrr...Shoot the stray b’tards, that is the only real solution. If the illegals were caring guns, they would be classified as an invading army and would be shot on sight.
But instead they are caring drugs, humans beings meant for slavery, diseases - (for fun Google whooping cough comeback in California) or super tuberculosis or even bedbugs, and their primitive superstitious cults etc. There are invading us, period. If Americans don’t see this as an invasion, then what is it?
Bing- La Raza, or the Aztlan Rising.www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajkAP_M4ZAM
Short of either annexing Mexico or invading it, I don’t see how we can. One thing is for certain, the present situation as it stands can’t go on forever. It will come to a head and Mexico will collapse completely and thousands, millions of Mexicans will come pouring over the border.
Your posts were great.
Why respect a country and its symbols when it trashes ours.
Riiiiight.
