Take an American flag to work - show your support for what the American flag stands for!

(PHOENIX, AZ) April 5, 2006 – Chris Simcox, President of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, today extended yesterday’s call by Minutemen for citizens across the country to make every Thursday in April “Take An American Flag To Work Day!” The Minutemen are rallying Americans to culminate their patriotic show of support for our flag on Monday, May 1 st—when communist, anarchist and other pro-illegal alien radicals are attempting to stage a nationwide strike promoting amnesty and unsecured borders. The Minutemen call on our nation’s silent majority to publicly carry an American flag to work and everywhere they go, beginning Thursday, April 6, and continuing every Thursday in April through Monday, May 1 st.

The extension through May Day of the “Take An American Flag To Work Day” campaign was requested by Minuteman volunteers and supporters who are outraged by the recent desecrations of the American flag by pro-illegal alien mobs. Current reports of the banning of the American flag and patriotic red, white and blue clothing by school districts in San Diego, CA and around the country in reaction to illegal alien student walk-outs have given even greater urgency to the “Take An American Flag To Work Day” initiative of the Minutemen.

As reported by Jerry Seper in The Washington Times on April 4, 2006, the May Day pro-illegal alien and unsecured borders boycott is being organized by the ANSWER coalition, a front group for the communist Workers World Party whose steering committee includes radical anti-American groups such as the Free Palestine Alliance, the Partnership for Civil Justice, the Nicaragua Network, the Korea Truth Commission, the Muslim Student Association, the Mexico Solidarity Network and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

Simcox issued the following statement in support of “Take An American Flag To Work Day”:

“The American flag has been burned, dragged in the streets, thrown in the garbage and hung upside down under the flag of Mexico on U.S. soil by pro-illegal alien protesters. Now Old Glory is being banned by U.S. government-funded schools around the country so as not to offend illegal aliens and their enablers.

“The American people are fed up with this assault on our American flag that our citizen soldiers, our families and forefathers, fought and died for—to keep this country free. The Minutemen are calling on our fellow Americans to defend Old Glory by publicly carrying it and proudly showing the red, white and blue wherever they go on Thursdays in April—work, school, shopping or just walking through the neighborhood.

“President Bush has called for a civil debate on illegal immigration and border security—but there is nothing ‘civil’ about desecrating the Stars and Stripes. He asks for a debate that ‘does not pit neighbor against neighbor’—but good neighbors in America are not trespassers, lawbreakers, or flag desecrators. The Minutemen urge the President to stop making excuses for anarchists, and to speak out in support of the American flag, and the rights AND responsibilities of liberty it so nobly symbolizes. The Minutemen stand in defense of America, honoring the duties and loyalties that secure our responsible self-government and the blessings of our God-given freedom.

“Fundamental respect for Old Glory seems the least the President should ask of the millions of illegal aliens to whom he’s offering amnesty—not only at the expense of the American soldiers, taxpayers and institutions paying in blood and treasure for their illegal presence on our territory, but also at the expense of our national honor, dignity and sovereignty.”

Flying the American flag upside down is a time honoured statement of a nation under siege.

My feelings on illegal Mexican immigration have no bearing on my statement that I find the fact that its being flown upside down to be particularly ironic.

However, the flag code does state that the American flag should be flown above all others in this country. So, they should fly it upside down OVER the Mexican flag.
 
I am so in. Wish I would have known so I could participate today.

The banned in schools bit realy got me POed.:mad: I say we take the illegals out of the schools becasue they offend the students whose parents(and the students that work, I've been at it since 15) pay taxes that fund said schools.
 
I went to three stores looking for an American flag to fly on my vehical and could not find any.Wake Up America!!!!!!!:mad:
 
Print one out, ESI Agent.

Stand fast, people. Those of us who want to immigrate legally would rather still have an America to immigrate to.
 
Been doing it every day since this announcement came out...

Made mine on the printer so I could have two--one in my front window of my truck & one in the rear window (already fly one at home)...

I'm "looking forward" to meeting the first person who tells me to take them down... :D
