Sh!t like this makes me think of Merle Haggard's Fighting Side of Me

I think he was referring more to why bring up an old dead horse like this. Unless you been in a hole for the last 10 years. You most likely already knew this incident happened. unfortunately it was resolved peacefully. Unlike my way of handling it.

OOPs, Steve it looks like you woke up grumpy, and pissed off Craig, too.

It's no big deal we'll just run the flag up your flagpole, UPSIDE DOWN and see how it turns out for you.

I realize what he meant, and if it was done in 2006 or yesterday it should piss people off. I understand some things are better left alone i.e. time heals all wounds. But this isn't a wound, this is national identity. I don't believe there is anything wrong with keeping it in the forefront of the American public, a reminder as to what these "immigrants" think of America.

And to add on, I think the footage of 9/11 should be shown at least once a week. Show those poor souls leaping off of the WTC and then whine to me about waterboarding.

BTW, I support your planned response to the flag incident 100%. That would have set a HUGE precedent to these "immigrants" on how real Americans feel about stunts like this.

Those that did that with the flag were and probably still are a bunch of nobodies. I refused to give them any sort of notoriety then, let alone revive the news now.
(Do you think they would do it for any reason other than to PI$$ people off??)

Meaning Americans were under duress and needed rescue. Especially if the flag is flown that way in front of a school.

Having the Mexican Flag fly above the American flag with the American Flag upside down. Would tell me that Mexico has taken Americans Hostages and have taken control over that government building. Being it was a public school there for government property. So again my response would be warranted.

Also every police officer and swat team in the area should have responded as well.

I guess it is a good thing I was not in charge of some law enforcement agency in that area.

you sure get wound up over a bunch of misguided kids ,shows the teaching is a tad off .. if your kids learn selfrespect they would never be involved in this crap...then again I would never think to kill someone because they think differant then I do.. and you are supposed to be the land of the free...hell you won't even support your own president???
