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.

You don’t understand. The powers that be in kalifornia welcome anti Americanism. The objective of the liberal mind is to destroy what America now is (and has been), and reconstruct a faggot oriented, hedonistic, devil worshipping society.

Third try and the video worked for me...

These Mexicans, be they legal or illegal, if they keep this up, are going to very much regret their actions.

So much for the melting pot theory.

The melting pot theory isn't working because they're pushing the salad bowl theory of integration. This whole thing is blowing up thanks to the Left.

Americans do NOT need to fight back as these young RETARDS did.

You understand NOTHING about Mexico.

It's a hyper nationalist culture, like America used to be. And it is based on ethnicity, "La Raza Cosmica".

It also has its myths: that the Southwest is their land.

The ridiculous notion that we could let in 40 million people from the country next door with its grudge against us, its nationalist people, and its own utter lack of achievement in 500 years of existence is what is wrong, and that idiot notion is held not just by the Left but by the neocon and libertarian "Right".

You guys just don't understand. These are people, they have their own nation, and they take it with them wherever they are. JUST ASK THEM.

The whole idea of assimilation at this level is absurd.

I should say they were brave and should have gone back and gotten their flag, and even been cross about getting it knocked out of their hand, but the behaved like baboons afterwards.

Clearly you haven’t had a child in a California high school recently.

No, but being outnumbered doesn’t mean anything if you have the will to stand your ground, as is the case with Latinos who are minorities in black high schools and vice versa. Most white kids are cowards these days (which wasn’t the case, btw, back in the 1940s and 1950s in New York and elsewhere).

Its not the kids that is the problem. Its the principals and teachers who will ruin any child, in order to promote their leftist agenda.

Gee, you would think they were Muslims and the American flag was like a cartoon of Mohammad.

The melting pot theory isn't working because they're pushing the salad bowl theory of integration.

Actually it is and has been working, except for muslims and other illegal aliens. Most real immigrants do want to assimilate.

As currently configured, Washington isn't going to fix this...the states might. If they don't, it will be up to the people, who have already weighed in on the issue.

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

He thinks the whole thing is funny. A funny way to divide America that is.

President Obama, No One in Arizona is Laughing
