I wouldn't call it ..... un-American to wave the Mexican and American flag... but I can now say in good conscience that I believe it was not in good taste.

Favorite quote on article
In 2006, I wrote a column saying it was a bad idea for immigration reform advocates to wave Mexican flags as they marched through U.S. cities such as Phoenix, Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles. It's illogical to show your allegiance to one country while demanding accommodation from another.

They let you do that? I would have thought that would have been considered something that was not approved and that you did not have something that was required. Huh.snatchel wrote:When I was in the military, I would wear a TX flag patch rather than a US flag. I got a whole lotta grief about it from others, particularly non-Texans. They never went so far as to call it un-American, but they did say that I should be representing the United States, not my state. I'm infinitely proud of my heritage as a Texan. It's a lifestyle and a privilege. In the end, i'm American.... but I'm a Texan first. I always thought that the uniform I was wearing was proof enough of my loyalty.

LoL. We could do a lot of things that aren't allowed in the traditional service role. We can also grow beards and such.
