Objection to Mexican flag being flown
The Mexican flag flying from a rooftop of an eating establishment downtown is a disgrace to the United States of America.
Who do you think you are? This is not Mexico. There are people fighting for our freedom and you choose to slap the people of the United States of America in the face. Evidently you are not a real citizen of this country and if you are, remember the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.
So, please take your flag back to Mexico and fly it there — not over the soil of the United States. Every American citizen should call and boycott your establishment until the right flag is flown — the Stars and Stripes.
