A Veteran from Reno, Nev. has hit headlines after he took matters into his own hands yesterday and tore down a Mexican flag that was being illegally flown above a U.S. flag at a local business. Local news station KRNV News 4 had received calls yesterday afternoon from angry residents complaining about the Mexican flag. When the station sent a reporter to investigate the Veteran took the opportunity to make a statement in front of the cameras. The man commented "I'm Jim Brossert and I took this flag down in honor of my country with a knife from the United States army. I'm a veteran, I am not going to see this done to my country. if they want to fight us, then they need to be men, and they need to come and fight us, but I want somebody to fight me for this flag. They're not going to get it back." Watch it: The hispanic store owner who witnessed the incident would not make comment on camera but told KRNV over the phone that he was flying the flag as a mark of solidarity to the hispanic community. Pro-immigration protests have been ongoing in the area all weekend after raids were conducted by authorities in the area last week. The store owner said he is an American citizen and did not know what he was doing was against the law. However, according to federal law it is illegal to fly any flag above the U.S. flag, and if flying more than one they must be on separate poles and be of an equal size. The Reno police department has told KRNV that Brossert will faces charges for theft if the store owner files a police report of what happened. Similar incidents have previously been reported in Maywood, CA ., Tucson, Arizona , and Jupiter, Florida.

A riveting interview came in today between Alex Jones and Glenn Spencer on this outrage (see link above). Glenn Spencer has been on the border fighting the immigration invasion for the past 17 years, web-radio enthusiasts be sure to check that broadcast out!
Listen to the AJ clip that LJT posted above. You might have a different attitude when you understand that the symbolism of flying any country's flag above ours is one of conquest. That's the message they wish to portray.

chris, check out the use of the phrase "voluntary civilian compliance". "The Flag Code does not prescribe any penalties for non-compliance nor does it include any enforcement provisions, rather it functions simply as a guide for voluntary civilian compliance.") The federal flag code does not authorize the government to dispatch G-men or police to arrest persons who allow their flags to touch the ground, display flags upside-down or backwards, or fail to destroy old flags "in a dignified way." But, according to the former IRS Commissioner that Aaron Russo interviewed, "voluntary compliance" means, "volunteer or else we'll come and get you!"
