Video: Mexican Protester Rips American Flag From Hand of American (Live Oak High School)
Sunday, May 9, 2010 | Kristinn

Posted on 05/09/2010 9:35:40 AM PDT by kristinn

A video taken this week by KRON-TV in California shows a Mexican demonstrator swatting the American flag out of the hand of an American counter-demonstrator during the march by Mexican Live Oak High School students and others upset that American students wore American glags to the California school on Cinco de Mayo.

The video, posted at KRON on May 6, 2010 by Brian Shields, shows a pick-up truck with at least three young men waving small American flags mounted on sticks from the windows as they ride alongside the Mexican march on the sidewalk. The pick-up truck is shown stopped with a female demonstrator engaging the occupants in an argument when a male demonstrator walks up to the truck and angrily swats an American flag from one of the passengers.

The truck pulls away, then stops and the occupants get out to retrieve the flag. Police are suddenly seen trying to do something. It does not appear that they arrested the male who swatted the flag out of the hand of the American.

A woman demonstrator gets between the two sides and shoos the Americans away as they go back to the truck after retrieving their flag.

A reporter tries to interview them about the incident, but Mexican demonstrators walk up to the truck and the scene devolves into profanity-laced verbal pot-shots.

The rest of the video shows scenes from the concluding rally where the Mexican demonstrators demand 'respect' and chant 'si se puede.'

Several of the demonstrators tried to cloak themselves in being Mexican-American, yet the only flag they carried wass the Mexican flag. We see how they treated the American flag.

The anti-American left is working overtime to dived this country along as many faultlines as they can exploit. This is one that they are being successful with. Americans need to fight back against this just as these young men did. Fly the flag with pride, wear the red, white and blue with dignity.

I don’t think illegals is the way to go to divide the country (I certainly won’t give them the heads up).

Most of the liberals in my life, I don’t have a lot, but some, tend to get the “boiling blood syndrome” at the mere mention of illegals.

Most of our country is against them. If they want to create violent displays, let em. Only makes those against illegal immigrants stronger.....on BOTH sides.

Anyone try to rip a United States flag out of my hand and it is Soooooooo on. They want to play this game, fine. I’ll defend MY flag against anyone who wishes to do harm.

What more proof does any sentient being need to understand that these Mexican infiltrators are a foreign racist invading force, with no intent to become loyal US citizens? They should be treated like an invading military force bent on conquest. Wake up!

Has Obama weighed in on this? I would expect him to say that the flag-waving Americans “acted stupidly.”

Bush said Mexico was our good friend while suggesting legitimate Americans were vigilantes.

If I'm not mistaken, Bush's top lieutenant, Mr. Karl Rove went before the racist organization, La Raza and gave a speech.

Correct. They sow the wind and act “shocked” and “offended” when the whirlwind comes around.

So much for the melting pot theory. It will be interesting when the federal government is forced to stop the unemployment checks and Americans get desparate enough to actually demand the jobs Americans wouldn’t do. Once the government runs out of money there is going to be an out right three or four way race war.

These idiot Rats and RINOs are playing with fire on this and are going to get seriously burned.

You are correct. Bush’s failure to understand the cultural and economic destruction caused by illegals was the decisive factor in dividing Republicans and handing victory to Democrats, a last straw kinda’ thing. Now that Bush is gone, lets go after the enemy that is here.

America has the best and most powerful military in the world and yet, the only two weapons the foreign invaders needed to take over America was political correctness and the race card. What a damn shame.
