I can understand comming hear to get a better life, and the fact that the U.S. is based on both legal and illegal immigration, and maybe not being able to speak the english language perfectly. But if you are going to come hear and openly disrespect the country, i think you should go back and wave your flag in your own country.
    If it's your home you have the right to wave any flag, there's really no other explanation required.

    There's no problem with foreign flags. Some people (myself included) take pride in their foreign birth and are happy to display it. So long as they are being displayed on private property no problem. If the foreign flag is being flown improperly they should be told to do otherwise (I mean in height, to the right of the speaker, etc..). It's flown by itself who cares. It doesn't mean allegiance to another country.

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
