Veteran Rescues Flag

A Mexican business owner in Reno, NV who says he is supposedly an American citizen flew the Mexican flag over Old Glory at his business. That is, until a veteran came to his business and cut both flags off the flagpole, in front of the Mexican, and kept old glory, an act he said was rescuing the American flag. The irony is that the vet rescued the flag with an engraved K-bar knife. The Mexican showed that he had at least a grain of common sense when he only stood and watched without a word as the vet took down the flags, left the Mexican rag on the ground, spoke to the news cameras explaining his action and identifying himself, and walked away.

It seems to me that if we're gonna keep our country, we are going to have to take matters into our own hands as the government is not doing a thing to help. I figure my oath of allegiance on joining the military might give me the right to protect the American flag.

And the Constitution! It's wonderful to know that there are still MEN in this country!
