You can be proud of your heritage and at the same time realize it's not where your family has the best opportunity to thrive. People immigrate here all the time for a better life but are still proud of where they came from.
Sheesh, folks.
why would you fly the flag of the country you fled?
These are not legal immigrants, they are ILLEGAL ALIENS......
My grandparents NEVER flew the Irish flag at their house. And by the way they came here LEGALLY.
Because they didn't really flee--that's a dem wet dream--they came here ILLEGALLY to steal, sell drugs and bilk the system.....
They should immigrate here legally. They can still be proud of their heritage.
Here are their demands. This an episode of Candid Camera - right? Or, maybe a MAGA false flag operation?
Somebody explain this.
1 The migrants should be allowed to "cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients," including rice, chicken, flour, tomatoes and onions, instead of being served premade meals.
2 Have access to showers at all times and without time limits.
3 Visits by medical professionals will occur on a regular basis, with referrals for specialty care made as needed.
4 The group will receive the same housing support offered to others, and city officials will not "kick people out in 30 days without something stable established."
5 A "clear" and "just" process for removing someone, including verbal, written and final warnings.
6 Employment support, including work permit applications for those who qualify.
7 Free consultations with an immigration lawyer, as well as ongoing legal support provided by the city through immigration clinics and transportation to court.
8 Privacy for families in the shelter.
9 No verbal, physical or mental abuse by shelter staff and no 24/7 monitoring by law enforcement.
10 Transportation for children to and from school.
11 No separation of families, regardless of whether those families have children.
12 A meeting with the mayor and those involved in running the city's program to support migrants "to discuss further improvements."
13 All shelter residents will be provided with a document signed by a city official in English and Spanish and containing the list of demands and a number to call to report violations.

I don’t know the answers. I’m just tired of the crap everywhere. Every other interchange or vacant lot. These aren’t temporarily homeless.
Of course the problem is if you aren't "welcoming" (i.e. addressing the problem of an influx of ill-equipped non-residents) the ripple effects are massive and can lead to even more cost on the back end. It's a tough balance to strike.
I agree...but there's more than enough money in America to figure out how to care for her citizens. We have several Americans who by themselves could end homelessness in the country and still be billionaires afterwards.
Not shocked that "we" allow this insanity to take place. Then again, we also seem to think dudes who feel pretty should be able to compete against girls in high school and college.
All of this talk of the Mexican flag and being offended in this thread, and I see one flag on a single tent that isn't the Mexican flag. What am I missing? Relatedly, when I fly my State of Iowa flag in Denver, is that offensive?What a mess. Gotta love it when uninvited guests start making those demands. As you can see, they want free food, free medical care, free housing and free attorneys. Note that they are flying the Mexican flag at their camp, too.
Some of those demands sent to Denver Mayor Mike Johnson include:
* Migrants will cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients provided by the City instead of premade meals – rice, chicken, flour, oil, butter, tomatoes, onions, etc
* Shower access will be available without time limits & can be accessed whenever
* Medical professional visits will happen regularly & referrals/connections for specialty care will be made as needed
* "Connection to employment support, including work permit applications for those who qualify,"
* "Consultations for each person/family with a free immigration lawyer."
* Privacy within the shelter once moved there
* "No more verbal or physical or mental abuse will be permitted from the staff, including no sheriff sleeping inside & monitoring 24/7 – we are not criminals & won’t be treated as such."

Migrants send list of demands to Denver mayor
A group of migrants staying at an encampment in Denver sent a list of 13 demands to the mayor with conditions for moving into shelters. FOX31's Rogelio Mares shares their concerns about the city's offers.www.yahoo.com

That is a very naive view. Sure some of them will, but many will just join the homeless population and that is already an enormous problem with no easy fix.
only if you go to the Denver mayor with a list of 13 or more demands, including free housing, free medical care, a grocery list of the free food that you demand, etc.
Turns out we have winter every year and the homeless population keeps growing.
And you definitely aren't a religious person, correct?
Fair, but where is the Mexican flag you noted?
Yes, keep that shit out of Denver. Now the tiger hawk.....
These illegal migrants are empowered by Democratic politicians and liberalism that have rolled out the welcome mat for migrants over the years. I don’t know how one can argue that point.
it's now common knowledge that if you get into the country you have an 85% chance of being processed and released. all you have to do is say you fear for your life if you are sent back.
Actually, at the 1:53 mark you will see 2 flags (not one, as you wrongly claim) that are green, white and red.
And mentioning these foreign flags being flown, obviously, was a side note to the current border crisis situation and the fact that cities are being overrun. And the migrants in Denver, instead of showing gratitude for what they have been given and instead of complying with an order, instead are insisting that their demands be met before they will follow instructions from the city they occupy.
Not saying that it’s not a problem in Denver. But when I see an article like this, whether Fox News or MSNBC.. I scan the local news outlets for a closer perspective and also to see if it’s just a political thing that the national news outlets do. Not a single mention of this on the front page of thr Denver post website or the Denver7 news. I understand those orgs could be left leaning, but still, I’d like to think the locals would be covering this big time if the nationals are covering it.
