Another illegal immigrant graduates, proudly waving the flag of the country he'd do anything not to be sent back to

It's spring graduations these days, and out come the illegals, proudly waving the flags of the nations they don't want to be sent back to.

That was the case again in San Diego, where one illegal immigrant, Javier Diego Jacinto, wildly waved the Mexican flag at his graduation from San Diego State University, touting his status as a DACA recipient, and gave interviews for the television cameras. He's not the first. Remember her?

Here's my camera screen grab from what I saw on television last night on the NBC7 San Diego report:

Here's the NBC7 write-up.

A San Diego County resident and DACA recipient who’s worked several jobs to pay his way through college achieved part of his dream Tuesday when he graduated from San Diego State University.
Javier Diego Jacinto, 22 – proudly flying a Mexican flag – walked across the stage at Petco Park during SDSU’s commencement ceremony as his family cheered from the stands.

Which is pretty much the height of ingratitude. Who teaches a kid like that to go wave the Mexican flag instead of the American one after graduating at taxpayer expense from a U.S. university? Who knows of immigrants who came legally who would do that? I don't. Most are thrilled to have changed their nationality and many want nothing to do with the places they left, and embrace their Americanism as a gift from heaven. Not this kid. He'd rather wave the Mexican flag once he's gotten a chance to get on camera as if to wave in Americans' faces that he's gotten away with something.

Nobody's asking him about it, of course, not in the press, despite the obvious messaging. And he's not the first.

My granddaughter is a San Diego State grad. She was born in St. Louis Mo. Grew up in Costa Rica. Because she was an American citizen, she was not allowed any benefits that legal foreign students receive. Nor was she allowed in-state tuition like the illegal/DACA students are charged. For two years she had to pay out-of-state tuition, even though she was a full-time resident of and tax payer to the sate of California. SDSU kept delaying recognizing her as a California resident.

It’s been a few years now, and it still pisses me off.
