BUT I've seen many on here critize a certain poster for having a confederate flag on his avatar. So which do you prefer, illegals and mexicans putting their flag above the USA's or the confederate which was made before slavery started.
Im not a kkk or racists, im just curious why no one is mad that someone would wave their flag over the United states flag ?

ONLY brainwashed americans associate the confederate flag with slavery, the confederate represents the south, well used to until they were told they couldnt waive it on state capitals anymore

If people are from Mexico or any other country and wish to display their nations flag while residing in the U.S., they have their flag under the " HOST " country flag out of respect for that country letting them be there in the first place. If I were to move to another country, I think it would be appropiate that i display the U.S. flag beneath theirs out of respect to their soil and gov't.

It is a free country, anyone can wave a flag of their choice as long as they do so by referring to OUR Flag etiquette rules first. Shirley is right. I saw the photo of that IDIOT signing the flag and I agree with her answer

in case you dangle a flag from yet another united states, you're meant to dangle an American flag above it, to expose that you've appreciate. i'm no longer particular that a police officer might want to be in a position to implement that in a case like this, in spite of the reality that. yet in a company placing, they could.

I dont mind the confederate flag. Not all confederate flags wavers are anti-illegals. They are our goverment watch dog. If the goverment lies and pulls their bs like our president does and congress does the same...I am glad we have rednecks!
Notice how the media didnt tell the story about the UNited states post office that had the mexican flag on their flag poll. The riot team did nothing and it stayed up for 2 hours. Someone taped it and put it on UTube. Our government sucks!

ok. there is a difference...people display the confederate flag as a racist statement...that the "south shall rise again" or other nonsense. The mexican flag is the national flag for that country..just like the american flag is not offensive.

For the most part, most who wave confederate flags in today's society are waving them because they believe cause that the confederates stood for: state's rights and less federal control. So I don't mind either, even though I don't think I myself would ever fly either. To each his or her own, right?

i dont get mad. its just what the flag represents are very different.
the mexican flag represents a nation. the confederate flag represents the Southern history of SLAVERY.
And this is just an example. How many of you here are World Cup fans? I dont know about your part of the country, but in the Northeast you couldn't get away from seeing an Italian flag, or a French flag, or a Brasilian flag! They were everywhere! And not all these people were born in those countries, its just their heritage! Nobody seemed to have a problem with that.

because its politically correct to do certain things... i don't know why its all stupid.if the confederate flag represents slavery, then so does the american flag, because america had slaves too.everyone likes to forget that part.

I have nothing against the Mexican flag. It is kind of pretty--when it is flown BENEATH the American Flag on a "Mexican-American's" flag pole. But I have a reaaaal problem with it being hoisted alone on a flag pole in front of a Federal building--while MY flag (the flag of the country who has allowed their sorry @zz on our soil) is being trampled. Those swine should be deported IMMEDIATELY!

I don't care what flag you wave (or burn). It's a free country.
