Maywood, California surrenders to Mexico

From WorldNetDaily..

The radio listener, volunteering for Save our State, said that when she arrived at the rally she was rushed by counter-protesters who called out, "Death to the Minutemen."

"They pushed me around and told me if I was to take one step further, they would beat the s*** out of me," Sandra said. "I looked to the back of me and there were about four police officers leaning on their vehicle just watching, doing nothing!" 

As she stepped forward, Sandra said, the counter-protesters stole her sign and ripped it up as another threw water on her. 

A police officer eventually escorted her to her group. 

The opposition, she said, began to get louder, and then "we watched as they took the American flag off of the flag pole and stepped on it on the ground at the United States post office and mounted a Mexican flag, and up it went." 

At this point , she said, "the police did nothing." 

"Finally, they went over to take it down, and they had bottles and rocks thrown at them," she said. "They did not attempt to arrest anyone. They were unable to take it down because they cut the wrong line so the flag remained there for the rest of the day."

Sandra said that as police officers watched, another woman was beaten, as well as an elderly man, noting the counter-protesters "tend to pick on the weaker targets." 

"I believe that all Americans need to know about this and need to see that Mexican flag hanging at an American post office," she wrote to Anderson. "We are being invaded and the American people need to wake up!"

Here's a video of some of what happened.

Personally, I think when the American flag is taken down by a group claiming to want to overthrow the government, while police are unable or unwilling to respond, Federal troops should be called in.
