A small fracas broke out at the pro-Trump gathering in Otay Mesa on Tuesday after a protester dropped a Mexican flag from a car.
The flag was torn to shreds and a man in a Trump hat and shirt threatened to burn it.
“They burn our flag in our country, burn theirs in ours!” another man shouted.

I’m sick of foreigners waving their flags in our country.
We are being colonized.

Why shouldn't they burn it. It's their right. The Supreme Court said that it was a legitimate form of protest.

Maybe the guy should have demonstrated how it could be repurposed as a doormat.

So what’s the issue, LAT? Every time some Leftist burns or walks on an American flag, you treat it as the highest form of patriotic protest.

A person leaving Mexico should feel like a Jew leaving Nazi Germany.
You sure wouldn’t expect them to fly the Nazi flag once they got here.

Why are the Mexican flag waivers here instead of there?

Same here - I suspect that them burning our flag in our country is a “constitutional right” and us burning their flag in our country is a “hate crime”.....

Dropped from a car? Then it’s litter, incinerate it.
