Good for that guy!!!!!!!!!! Would have been batter if he had burned the Mexican flag, or wiped his butt with it.

Well done. If the business owner wants to fly the Mexican flag above ours he can do it back in Mexico.

I'd be happy to donate to that gentleman's legal defense fund. I agree, if you want to fly any nations flag above the US flag, do it in the home country of the nation who's flag you want to fly.

 I have nothing against Mexicans or Mexico. Not really anyways. It would have been poor tact had this guy did something to the Mexican flag. I agree with what he did. He took our flag from a place of disgrace under the Mexican flag. There is nothing wrong with that. There is a problem if he took the step you suggested and desecrated the Mexican flag. That would have been over the top.

I agree Mr Brossard's action was courageous and elegant.
