Protest Ends with Mexican Flag on California Post Office

Were the Events in Maywood a Mexican Act of War or Civil Insurrection?

A demonstration near the California/Mexico border has caught my attention, not only for what occurred there (that might be considered an act of war if you think about it) but also the city it took place in and what this city "represents". The city is called Maywood, California, and it's gaining notariety as being a "sanctuary" for illegal immigrants. It's all riding on the back of the new City Council, the majority of whom were voted into office by the wave of people living there who were sick and tired of the city targeting illegals or simply of being targeted by the city, pretty easy to do when they boast their 97% Latino population and more than half are illegal immigrants. Protesters are constantly in the city, opposing the sanctuary status of this chunk of American soil, countered by those who live there and are in favor of it. The protests finally reached an escalation point that really disturbed me.

They took down the American flag at the local post office, threw it on the ground and stomped on it, and then hoisted the Mexican flag in its place.

Nobody else sees this as a declaration of war, or at least of civil insurrection?

Let's rewind and look at the big issue that started all the protests. This city of lawlessness, if you will. With this new majority in the City Council of Maywood that was put into office after residents in this 97% Latino city were tired of laws and police targeting illegal immigrants - they have taken measures to declare the town a "sanctuary" for these lawbreakers. They're trying to overturn FEDERAL laws so they can say "they're not breaking OUR laws", as well as simply eliminating the people who would say otherwise. The police used to simply impound cars of unlicensed drivers, because ILLEGALS CAN'T GET LICENSED. So the City Council simply eliminated the police traffic division so there's no more people to tow unlicnsed drivers' cars.
