People of Mexican descent were deported back to a country they didn't ever live in simply because it was their same ethnic group.

Doesn't matter though, many people won't care to listen or read or do their research. My whole thing is this, if you want a "White America" or if you dislike an ethnicity, just come out and say it man. Now is the best time to do so since it seems to be the cool thing to do.
Oh yes he did. Its called open borders. You let immigrants in without any form of assimilation . Where are you getting white america from?

I noticed Trump supporters wave American flags.

Trump protesters wave Mexican flags and burn American ones.

I think the self-identified veteran, who needs to take better care of that knife, should have asked the shop-owner why he had the Mexican flag on top. He missed an opportunity for civil discourse and education. Not everyone knows the Flag Code. Including him. Crumble the American flag into a ball like a dirty t-shirt? Ummm....no.

Stop it.

Liberals can't handle truth outside of their safe spaces.

Everyone including the Mexicans know why they fly their flag and over the American flag. They believe they are conquering America.

For 12 years or so Mexico claimed these states, France even claimed Texas longer than that. America has laid legal recognized claim to those now states for going on 200 years now, not to mention there was almost no population or development prior. Spain claimed the territory including Mexico for about 300 years. So should Mexico be reclaimed by Spain too?

That doesn't mean anything. Anglos accepted or named things with Spanish and Indian names out of symbolism and sentimentality for others, something Mexican seem to lack in affording to others.

No comment on the veteran's treatment of our flag? I've seen 7-year-old's show more respect.

The fact is statistics show hispanics are assimilating as quickly as other immigrant groups before them. We just have so many new hispanic immigrants that it disguises this fact.

I live in a neighborhood that is 50% hispanic, it is not any different really than the all white neighborhood I grew up in.

This is true. I just hate leftists and I am correct in their flag choices while protesting Trump. Wave Mexican, burn American.

He probably would not have done that had the Stars & Stripes been flying high above that green & red rag.
It isn't a restaurant. It is a Bar. No one under 21 allowed.

This is exactly what should have happened...

I have no problem at all with what the veteran did, but it would have been nice if he had first gone into the store and explained to them that what they were doing was illegal, disrespectful, and insulting.

My question though is this... Those flag, according to the story, had been flying for quite a while. Why didn't the cops take them down, or force the owner to do so.
