A Different Type of Mob

Now for my brief rant...This same crap happened in 1994, when the Prop. 187 , a proposition intended to deny medical and educational privileges to illegal immigrants, was on the ballot. It's not the protests that bother me, nor the side they support, it's protesting with Mexican (also some Guatemalan and El Salvadoran) flags when one is demanding the United States to extend its privileges to illegal immigrants. If you have so much damn pride for those countries, why are you demanding the United States open the doors to the millions that want to escape from them? At least have the decency and respect to admit your home country is impoverished and corrupt and that its citizens need the jobs available in the US. To me, the Mexican flags in this protests say, "Mexico es Jesus Cristo, Los Estados Unidos es el diablo." Yet, they would rather do business with the devil. Muy Loco.
