U.S. Flag upside down!

While I do not agree with SB 1070, I also do not agree with this type of protest! See pictures below!






Some students from a different high school decided that it would be a good idea to take down the U.S. flag at Montebello High School & put it on backwards with the Mexican flag above it!  This does make me mad!  There's no need for all the hate & there surely is no need for the American flag to be upside down. 

The protests against SB 1070 are to fight for American civil rights to protect our country not to fight with each other & disrespect the country we all love.  If these students feel the need for this kind of hate crime, perhaps they need to reevaluate their priorities and decide which country they truly belong to.  This is truly sad because most of these students don't even know what they're protesting for.  They think SB1070 is all about HATING MEXICANS when in reality it's about trying to impose a law that will lead to racial profiling.  It's not about the Mexicans...these students need to get better educated!

I don't agree either. The point of protesting against this stupid law is because it violates the rights of "minorities" within out state. We aren't trying to freaken change the USA into freaken Mexico. Be proud of your roots, but remember where you're loyalties now lay.
