And at least one reporter had the same thoughts. Asking questions about the rally that no one seemed to be able to answer, you know like� �why are you protesting?�. And then they questioned a rather excitable young latino, who was screaming �THIS WAS OUR COUNTRY FIRST�. The reporter actually pointed out that at one time a decent portion of this land was formerly Mexico property, but that was lost, fair and square. The kid didn�t seem to get the point.
The other thing that I found moderately amusing was the inordinate amount of Mexican flags being waved. I�m sorry but maybe I�m not following this issue close enough but I don�t really *get* that. I thought the issue was, Mexico was an economic shit hole and people wanted to come to America, where they could improve their standard of living.
If we�re talking about national pride, at that point, shouldn�t they have been waving American flags?
I don�t know, I find it all very bizarre.
