I honestly don't know if this is considered political and IMHO, I think it's more of a patriotic gesture, but if the mods disagree, do what you will. I'm not saying what Mr. Brossard did was legally right, but I think I would have done the same thing because I'm a veteran.

What is happening now is just the tip of the iceberg. Total disregard for the American flag and the laws that we abide by will only increase.

When will all Americans say enough is enough? Its up to the idiots on capitol hill to take their heads out of their a@@ and wake up!

So the racists from La Raza can march in our cities and desecrate the American flag, but we can't do anything to a foreign flag showing disrespect to the American flag?

If the government used my idea for a border patrol we wouldn't have so many illegals sneeking in everyday. They'd be too scared to, and human rights activists would protest.

 

My idea = anti-personel land mines, and shooting on sight. Sounds brutal, but so doesn't the sound of loosing your job to some illegal alien. I'm not going to offer to work for less $$$ to keep my job because some mexican offered to do it for less. To hell with that.

That wont work. One we couldn't keep up with the body count. Two we would run out of mines.

 

Its simple, we need to quit feeding them. Its like the sugar ants. You can keep spraying poisons, and smashing them, but until you get rid of the sugar, they would still keep coming..... Dont give them benefits or "rights" of what the American citizen has and start punishing busineses that are employing them. Then they will stop coming.... Well the majority of them will stop coming. And if the ones that really do want to better themselves and make something out of themselves can do it legally.

theres no politics in that... its 100% true patriotism.. :devil:

 

thats a disgrace to the American flag as well as our country.. if you need to work to make a living for your family do it in your own country.. don't take food off of my dinner table because you don't earn enough in your country... My fathers a firefighter and a Local 597 pipe fitter and he's made a great living for himself.. and he'd love to see his kids do the same... Above every vehicle in our garage hangs a full size American flag... and on every single one of our trucks theres a small American flag on the back... the flag needs to be respected for what it means... not degraded bye something like that..

 

i agree 100% that this country needs to do something about this.. and our border.. :bs:

Agreed. But humans have much better brains than ants. No way I would risk a good chance of getting killed to sneek into a country for a better living. My idea is like the bug guy who sprays the outside of your house to keep bugs out. Maybe the govt. should combine our plans for ultimate security. :bs: No sugar inside the sprayed house. No reason to risk your life to go to a place with no work.

 

I wish it would happen, but too many people in California would protest. :devil:

maybe we should all just rig up some machine gun stands in the bed's of our trucks and head down there to show them what being a true American Citizen is all about! :devil:

 

:bs: i bet that'd take care of the problem real quick...

 

if you can take the time to disrespect our flag, you should be willing to take the time go get sent back to your country..

Does anyone know Mexico's illegal immigration policy? Oh that's right because they shoot and imprison illegals who sneak into their country.

No they don't. I know this because I've done it.

 

I've also gone down to Mexico and snuck back across into the US. It was a maddeningly fun night.

I saw that a week or so ago, I hope the guy who cut the flag down is charged and found guilty, he had no business doing that. Was the store owner ignorant of the law? That is not for him to deciede.

 

People get so worked up these days, that 'veteran' is lucky the store owner wasn't a gun carrying citizen...

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It seems fine because it pulls everything out of a hot engine. I’m not going to worry about a thimble full with 5K oil changes with synthetic oil. Every other oil change is at Honda they pull the plug. I watch them through the process. It turns out going to Honda what amounts to their normal oil change intervals.

      I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be.

      I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.
