Because they are Mexican first, American second.

God help you if you fly a German flag in a Mexican neighborhood, though. Only they are allowed to think that way.

At my school, white kids are often given a hard time by the hispanic students. I'm as white as frosty the snowman, and iv'e never been harrassed. Why? According to this one "cholo" student, it is because I am Russian, and Russians are not white. What the hell does that mean?! I'm the whitest kid in town!

Kinda stupid given that cholos probably have quite a bit of European genes in them themselves.

My neighborhood is a steady mix of white and Asian, but there is a Mexican neighborhood not too far away. Now, I fly the Stars and Stripes on a small, 5-foot flagpole outside of my house. Well, these kids from the Mexican neighborhood came by, took the flag (and the pole) off of the house, and then threw it on my roof.

All I can say is, if I hadn't been jacking off when they did it (I had to get dressed and run outside, and by then, they were running down the street) I would have had time to run out the door and stop them. :p

To PC or not to PC, that is the question.

It's correct sometimes.

Just use it when needed, not when you want to. Because it seems people don't want to offend people... It should be used when it is a necessity.

Custom flag? Like your NS flag? :p

Oh, and I forgot to add: why would Mexicans get mad at the German flag being flown on the Fourth? I can understand rednecks getting pissed, but given that the Mexicans in question don't even celebrate the 4th, why would they care?

I've got too many American flags. But I want to by more. MORE! MORE! MOAR!!!!

These days it's smart to be politically correct. Especially if you're a public figure. (Poor Paula Deen did not deserve what she got)
I can't say that I like it though. It seems excessive, and passive-aggressively anti-free speech.

I live next door to a 90 women. She is such a sweet lady; she knits quilts for our family, gives us homemade Christmas presents, etc...

Any ways, every morning, she gets up at 5am to hang old glory on her flagpole. There was this one time where these punk ass mexican kids drove by while she was raising the flag. They stopped in front of house, laughed at her, called her names and cursed at her in Spanish, before throwing a beer bottle on her driveway and driving off, cusing the poor lady to cry.
