None of them died for the Mexican Flag!
Several weeks ago, in Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a
school flag pole. Another student took it down. Guess who was expelled
from the school? It was the kid who took down the Mexican flag.
High school kids in California were sent home on Cinco de Mayo because
they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.
The boycotts and ridicule of Arizona is unsettling. The failure of
the federal government “to provide for the common defense” of a state
violates a principal covenant of the constitution. This was an
incentive for a territory to become a state.
Demonizing mainstream Americans who want to protect their property,
culture and heritage angers me. That’s not what my multi-generational
family fought for. Nor did we for a nation that sues states for
protecting its citizens.
