I don't agree with this flag bearing, I never liked it. But I hardly doubt there is any real meaning behind it besides showing pride in the country they came from. Have you been to Florida? Drive and count how many Latin American flags you see hanging from rear view mirrors or in the front lawn.
I can understand why it would upset you though, but don't make something out of it other than just pride. It's not a smart move, but it isn't malicious.
I’m glad I didn’t stay long. I wouldn’t have been able to maintain my composure had I witnessed the insolent illegal from the video carrying an inverted U.S. flag. Illegals deserve NOTHING, and that’s precisely what they’ll get.
I’m glad someone captured the disrespectful ingrates stepping on the discarded U.S. flag. Bleeding hearts and other illegal alien sympathizers. . . . behold your beloved “undocumented.”

Looking at the growing hostility towards Mexico in particular between illegal aliens and the drug wars: the last thing a bunch of protestors need to to do is fly that nation's flag.
I swear ever since the illegal alien 'rights' protests of May 2006; the pro amnesty side has shot itself in the foot of American public opinion almost without fail. Keep it up fools, keep it up: with that sort of insolence, not only will there never be an amnesty---------the odds are growing dramatically there will be forced mass deportations for starters.

If they're so proud of where they come from why did they leave? The fact that they fly the USA flag upside down, walk on it when it's on the ground, carry the flags of their nations of origin automatically tells me they are here to carve out their niche in our country and make it their own all while they change the culture and fabric of this country. Press 1 for English, Press 2 for Spanish.
You don't carry the flag where you're from at a march in Washington DC! What a way to send the message that it's an invasion!!! Fantastic!!!
I only hope that our government officials aren't as stupid as I think they are, and they really know what's going on and they're watching it all behind the scenes.
All the communists/socialists at that march alone should raise everyone's blood pressure in DC and resurrect J. Edgar Hoover's ghost to motivate the CIA/FBI into doing to covert surveillance around this country.

Listen I already said it wasn't a smart move, this is a controversial topic and people do stupid things like walk on the flag or hang it upside down. Even our own politicians cannot control themselves from yelling offensive remarks like "it's a baby killer" when they should know better.
In the heat of battle people do stupid things, it doesn't mean everyone feels the same. Nor does it mean they are all invaders for some alternate agenda of destroying the US.
Why does the flag bearing only seem to be held against Latin Americans? Do you have the same ill feelings for someone who drives with a Latvia flag on their car or Italy, Ireland, Morocco? Are they invaders too?
Are we all required to carry only the Stars and Stripes?

When you're at a pro-amnesty march I wouldn't think you'd be carrying the flag of your nation of origin.
And yes it does disturb me that there's flags from Ireland, Italy, those stupid oval bumperstickers with the "F", or the "D" on them. People have some strange fascination with promoting other countries over the one they're in. If it's so great back in Latvia, then why are you here?
The subject of this thread is about illegals, not about American politicians and their childish outbursts during debate. Separate threads deal with separate topics and I prefer to keep my comments on the subject and not incorporate other arguments which have nothing to do with this subject here.
If they're not destroying the USA then why all the failed hospitals, lousy schools, low paying wages and deteriorating job prospects for legal Americans? Not to mention illegals also had their hands out when banks gave out the loans which destroyed banks. They're doing a fine job of destroying this country and not contributing a dime.

I don't know why they did it. One thought could be they are trying to show that many people from many countries want this, not just Mexicans.
Ok next time you see someone with an Italian or Latvia flag on their car, go ask them why don't they have a US Flag. Next time you see someone with a Irish Flag on a Clover tattoo ask them "why not a US Flag, are you an invader?"
Just seems like a double standard to me, if you are Latin American you are an invader...if you're not BE PROUD!
