And immediately after 9-11, when other folks began attaching American flags to their antennas ... our fine "guest workers" around here did the same. Except that they made absolutely sure to put a much larger (about 4x larger) Mexican flag above the American one.

I never did figure out what the symbolism of that was. I still don't.

I think a part of them was just as horrified at what happened, as everyone else. Unfortunately they had to put their own country first, as usual.

Their allegiance is strictly to Mexico. Their only association with America is to use it as their own personal ATM machine. The deep, abject hatred for America that so very many of these illegals foster is frightening to behold, and I see it every damn day of my life. They have nothing but contempt for America and Americans.

Kind of like flying a smaller state flag under the American Flag. An order of allegence. I would think this meant Mexico first, America second. (I saw many flying American flags upside down. I felt that was done as an insult by people who didn't know flying the flag upside down is a distress symbol.)
