A scene from the May Day demonstration in Downtown L.A. today. The marchers want amnesty for illegal immigrants and a stop to raids on companies employing them.
Mexico flag wavers for people wanting to become U.S. citizens? Major pet peeve of mine.

Interesting observation. I think I share that major pet peeve now.

It’s a pet peeve of mine as well. If they’re so interested in assimulating into American culture and becoming a citizen, they really should consider waving the American flag.

I don’t think they’re as interested in assimilation as much as they are in acculturation. There are American flags in the picture if you look closely.
Having said that, I agree the BIG flags should be American ones.

I totally agree with you DD. It’s outrageous.

Hmm, you’re right. That doesn’t make much sense.
