Mexican flag hanging from Maricopa cell tower sparks complaints

Quote:
Complaints about the mystery flag have been pouring in, and Sarah Tijerina has been fielding many of them. She works in an office on the same lot that has no affiliation with the tower.
Quote:
Armando Lara, who is Mexican-American said he can see why.

“I don’t see it as being a big issue, but at the same time, we are in America, and I don’t think it should be up there,” he said.
Quote:
Nieblas disagrees, and said it is just a display of the diversity that makes America what it is.

I don't know why people are so worried about being "invaded" by Mexicans. Mexico is going to be absorbed/annexed by the United States in 50 years.

But but but, these Mexicans risked life and limb to come here, to the land of milk and honey. Of course they love America that much if they risked their lives to get here!

What are you alluding to? A North American Union perhaps?
