The Rebel flag uproar is so much hot air.

Some Texans complain about people parading around with a Mexican Flag. Its as legitimate here, as the Rebel flag.

Well, we know flying the mexican flag won't get you deported in every city in america. Funny how we aren't so sure about the Confederate flag.

The Rebel flag was a flag that was integral to people who are a part of this nation. The Mexican flag is the flag of a foreign nation. It has no place here. It is also symbolic of a foreign nation taking over parts of our nation. The people who carry it here are showing allegence to Mexico. The people who carry the Rebel flag do so out of nostalgia. They are not showing their allegence to a foreign nation at all. They still honor the flag of the United States as well. It is not a replacement. The Mexican flag is. Those who carry it make no bones about it.

Texas fought for the Confederacy. I may be incorrect, but I don't remember anything in my Texas history about Texas fighting FOR Mexico.
