He was saying that the flag was in more places than just this thread.

I'm saying that I know it's all over the internet.

And to answer your question...
If it was copyrighted, this thread wouldn't be here.

The site is claiming it to be copyrighted, however that site is registered through an anonymous outfit from canada and looks like it was registered on Aug 8, 2010. This thread was started before that.

OK, I'll be more direct. Do you know what "bootleg" means? That means STOLEN. Clear enough?

If you know that what bootlegged means, then what you are saying is you know that it's a stolen image. Lots of copyright images are "all over the internet."

That's not necessarily true. We posters are supposed to abide by the TOS - even when the Mods aren't around to watch.

Mexicans are not coming here to steal land and give us smallpox, they are here to work to better their lives. Mexico is not giving them enough opportunities, so they look elsewhere. If I were in their situation, I would do the same thing. The immigration system is too strained and too slow. We need to speed up the process and get everyone who wants to come here in legally.

A copyrighted photo carries some type of visible signature. Without it, the copyright (if any) is void.
Now, I'm not going to argue with you or anyone about this.
Why don't one of you 3 find some proof of what your accusations are all about.
Then report it to the Administrative Moderator. YAC

In other words....
Put up
or
Shut up..

So the USA should set up a fast immigration process where everyone who WANTS to come here can come here legally.............do I have that right?

Exactly how many BILLIONS of people do you think this country can support?

Some are reconquistas and some do carry deseases since they get no health checks by coming here illegally. They don't have the right to better their lives here by stealing jobs and benefits from Americans. We have quotas for legal immigration that already take into consideration how many legal immigrants we can accept. Are you saying we should take in as many that want to come here whether we have jobs for them or not and can accomodate their social needs? We have no right to control our borders nor our population growth. Just let em all in even if it negatively impacts our own citizens? We should put the needs of foreingers above the needs of our own citizens?
