Hmm makes more sense to me that flying a foreign flag over a Public Building, in the USA, would be a Federal Crime. Protecting the USA should earn a comedation from any real patriotic organization. Temporary insanity due to rage should certainly be forgivable as any good American would be likely outraged and act accordingly.
Not sure of the laws there, but the law is the law. Liberals would take such a break and run with it, saying they allowed illegals over due to the temporary insanity at the thought of their horrid lives, or such. And I'd agree with them, because they are right about life in Mexico. Laws are in place to stop and keep in line those who would allow there emotions to run and lose there reason. I initially thought this was a case of a student burning his own flag, but that is not the case. Is it wrong to fly the Mexican flag over the US flag? Yes, very and that student needs punished too. Trespassing, and so forth.
Not really. Who would expect someone to fly a foreign flag over a US public building, ever?
Sure, it should be a federal crime, but only due to recent events. I didn't quite expect such anti-Americanism from these "undocumented workers" (sarc). They have no idea what they are doing (as far as the personal consequences they will face). Pretty soon, someone is going to get shot or beat to death doing one of these stupid acts. While Americans are not extremely patriotic in their normal day to day lives, they are extremely patriotic when they see an enemy on US soil (i.e. 9/11).
Personally, I hope that everyone who owns a flagpole to secure it by some means, armed guards if necessary.
