Mex Protestors Carry USA Flags Because...?
04/10/2006 | The Mick

What's the deal with Mexican Americans and Illegal aliens carrying the US flag today?

There's a poll about this exact subject.

Q: Protestors marching in support of illegal immigration are carrying American flags instead of Mexican flags because…

What, did their spin-doctors already show them how they were losing this issue?

Or do they really care about the USA?

Of course we all know the answer, except Jask-Of All.

To the causal viewer this looks like a Pro-America rally, but it's really a rally about opening the border to anyone who wants to enter America.

Because their enablers in the Democrat and GOP parties told them that carrying the Mexican flag backfired, and that they needed to "appear" patriotic in the future.

They're carrying American flags because carrying the flag of their country backfired on them.

An American flag does not make them any less illegal than a Mexican flag.

Because those are the flags that the organizers handed out? They felt the backlash.

It's a "do-over". They realized that their PR efforts failed, actually backfired, during the last protests. They all had to go and find American flags to wave at this new protest. I'm kicking myself for not getting organized and having patriotic Americans buy all the stores out of American flags before the invaders got to them. I didn't get the idea until yesterday and by then it was too late. Do they really think that anyone is going to be fooled by the faux flag waving do-over PR spectacle?

I do not want to support the republican party any more.

They seem to always sell out on me.

Where is the backbone?

I want the illegals to go back to wherever and get in line with their countrymen and make an application, but...

How stupid do we have to be to miss the fact that these protests provide law enforcement with illegals on a silver platter... can someone tell me why there are not 1000 law enforcement personnel arresting all the illegals carrying flags????

They carried American flags because the radio stations that were organizing the marches specifically told them to bring American flags and leave the Mexican flags at home.

What they did prior to this advice is a more accurate reflection of where they stay in regards to their love for the U.S.

Yes. We have way more stupid people in this country than intelligent people. Most will not think, "Gee...why did they suddenly switch to carrying American flags? Maybe it's a political maneuver.". Instead they will think, "Awwww.....look, in the past 10 days they have decided they are no longer proud Mexicans, but proud would-be Americans. Let's let them all in!!!".

I'm more offended by them carrying the US flag - which they despise - than when they were waving their Mexican flags! This is desecration and disrespect!

Organizers saw allot of flack from them carrying the Mexican flag previously, so they were told to leave that flag at home.

Some pix from some protest still show some carrying Mexican flags, but even the MSM and radio news reports have been emphatic that 'no Mexican flags were flown' today. [The MSM just avoided mentioning that some Mexican flags were flown.]
