Americans waking up this morning are finding their flag poles with Mexican national flags replacing the stars and strips

The Stars and Stripes have been replaced by the Mexican flag at Chasewood North, and residents of the condominium community off Central Boulevard are puzzled as to who made the switch.

"I woke up Sunday morning and looked up from my patio and then realized that the American flag wasn't on the flagpole," said Sue Miller a Chasewood North board member. "What captured my attention were the colors — at first I thought it was an Italian flag, but one of our residents said it was the Mexican flag.

It may be several weeks before the Stars and Stripes once again fly over Chasewood North, according to Miller, who at one time was the resident manager of the complex. "We tried to get the flag down but couldn't, so we need to hire a company with a boom truck to get up there and replace the rope and put up the American flag," she said. "I would guesstimate that this would cost $500 or more to do."

I hope everything you say comes true.

While they leave our borders open and our people unprotected, they do not scrimp on their own security.

Interesting.

I wonder how much is made in China.

And here we are bashing Europe for their problems with the muzzies!

Are we not living in a "glass house"?

25 million illegals out of 250 million U.S. "citizens" plus our "own" muzzies here!!

BIG problems; HELLO, HELLO!!!

Do you suppose these "Latinos" realize that the Spanish language they are so proud of was brought to them by European invaders?

Most of them also claim to be indigenous people. It is a tough sell when they almost all have Spanish surnames.

[kstewskis]

At my husband's former job a few years ago, a Mexican co-worker boasted to him that the LATINOS were taking over. He was really proud of this fact. My husband calmly said to him, "well who's going to pay all the welfare when that happens". He was mad but it shut him up.

I love it. I might use this tactic at one place I occasionally work at, where this might come up.

And I'll say it with a big smile too. :o)

Potential voters? As soon as Dems start singing sweet songs of social welfare programs, they will vote for them.

And we are afraid of turning away people who replace our flag with theirs?

[brytlea]

I wonder if we asked the people holding the sign with the word indigenous on it what the word meant, could they could tell us?

Actually, since the word means: having originated in and being produced, growing, or living naturally in a particular region or environment either the people born in CA, regardless of their ethnicity are more indigenous than those who immigrated from Mexico or elsewhere, or really no one is indigenous to CA since humans originated elsewhere and all migrated there.

Commandancy of the Alamo Bexar, Fby. 24th, 1836 To the People of Texas & all Americans in the world Fellow Citizens & Compatriots I am besieged by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Anna. I have sustained a continual bombardment & cannonade for 24 hours & have not lost a man. The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise the garrison are to be put to the sword if the fort is taken. I have answered the demand with a cannon shot, and our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender nor retreat. Then, I call on you in the name of Liberty, of patriotism, & of everything dear to the American character, to come to our aid

with all dispatch. The enemy is receiving reinforcements daily & will no doubt increase to three or four thousand in four or five days. If this call is neglected, I am deter- mined to sustain myself as long as possible & die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor & that of his country. Victory or Death William Barret Travis Lt. Col. Comdt. P. S. The Lord is on our side. When the enemy appeared in sight we had not three bushels of corn. We have since found in deserted houses 80 or 90 bushels & got into the walls 20 or 30 head of Beeves. Travis

Try to take my Old Glory down and may God have mercy on you, because I will not.

I swear that if I ever catch some guy in the act of lowering one of my country's flags and replacing it with a Mexican flag, I'm going to go get my .44 and shoot his ass.

Someone should give that Mexican flag to George Bush who stated, "Mi casa blanco es su casa blanco". Trans: My White House is your White House.

[kstewskis]

Think about it, then fly our flag outside your home! I am...

So am I.

Just changed out my old one for a crisp, brand new 3' x 5' one yesterday!

[Mel Gibson]

Shouldn't we tear down the San Jacinto Monument east of Houston so as not to offend the illegal immigrants?

(Heavy sarcasm)

[detsaoT]

... At least they don't have to buy a Mexican flag to deface... ;)

[hispanarepublicana]

It would be entertaining (albeit bloody) to see someone try.

Flag of Their Fathers-The yearning to cash out rather than buy into the American Dream. - FreeRepublic post by SJackson, March 30, 2006 - excerpt:

Today, in its coverage of the reconquista, the Dallas Morning News pictured a young student named Michelle Marquez being screamed at by about 20 of her fellow students. Her offense was not being opposed to the protest under way, but joining it with an American flag in her hands.

Good morning.
"Think about it, then fly our flag outside your home!"

My dear old mother has flown the Stars and Stripes for forty years, and has kept a coach gun near the door, to boot.

Amen.

I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same. That I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

Took that oath when I enlisted. Doesn't seem to have an experiation date on it...

[brytlea]

Thank you for that. I am a direct descendent of one of the brave men who died in the Alamo. He would certainly turn in his grave to see our country being handed back over....
