Had anyone read about this? A bunch of Mexican students in California put the Mexican flag above the US flag, and turned the US flag upside down in protest. I really hope we face them in the finals of the Gold Cup...

Such a shame that Guadeloupe is going to knock them out.

They should leave the country if we suck so bad.

Although they all look young and may not have known any better, it's still classless. But I'll be honest, I didn't hear anything about this when it happened last year (I only knew it happened last year because of the link to the story).

They should leave the country if they don't like it, doing that in America is very disrespectful.

I agree 100%. Unfortunately it's become commonplace here, especially since Bush has been in office. If you ask most Americans, about 90% dislike Bush (I know this isn't an exact statistic, but it certainly seems that high). To do that to the flag itself though just spits on all the soldiers who've done so much for America, rather than disagreeing with Bush's immigration policy.
