Flag of Mexico Flown Illegally Over Reno Business
Channel 4 KRNV ^ | 10/2/2007 | Greg Knight

Posted on 10/02/2007 2:27:32 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

This afternoon we received a call from a viewer who said a business near downtown Reno was flying a Mexican flag above an American flag... which is in fact illegal.

This, after photos and comments about the flag were posted on Craigslist this morning. When we were able to have a photographer go and check everything out we found the story to be true.

It also didn t take long before the situation provoked a strong reaction. We are now going to show you , unedited, what happened. Click on the video to see what happened.

Taking down the flags is vandalism. Long live free speech!!!

If you want to get on your knees or on your back that is your business but the Mexican flag flown over/on top of the American flag is a symbol of subjugation. God bless that vet may we have many more like him!.

El Jaripeo

It’s obviously a bar or gambling place, because there’s a sign on the door that says noone under 21 may enter.

It’s a slap at our Constitution to disrespect free speech on principle.

If you don’t like someone’s speech there is recourse. MORE speech, including the purest form of free speech there is, boycotts.

Vandalism is not a valid form of free speech.

I’m not a citizen of Mexico and I don’t know their laws. I do, however, know our Constitution and I uphold its principles. You apparently do not.

Somehow you must see it; it is uplifting!  He is a brave man!  God Bless him!

Try to use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox.  It worked for me.

I am responding to your post just to make sure you understand how uniformed you are. Review post 12 on this thread and educate yourself.

Was anyone else disturbed by the way he man-handled the U.S. flag? I mean, he shoved it under his armpit like it was a balled-up rag.

Seems to me that Vet was speaking loud and clear too...with just as many principles to back it up.

But you and the other apologists go ahead. Push. See what happens.

I wonder who's side people would be on if the owner shot the vet for stealing private property?

(No, seriously, it's an interesting question considering all the replies in other threads.)

I’d like to buy this guy a drink sometime.

His name is James Broussard, and he does live in Reno.

He just did what we all been wanting to do.

I realize he was blazing mad but wouldn’t it have been cool if he and a buddy folded it properly in front of the guy?

"Broussard"? I heard "Bronson" on the transcript - must have been old ears.
