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...

      “Service Emission System” & “175 miles until “65 MPH Max Speed”

      By ManyCamaroz · Posted

      I don't drive this truck on a regular basis since I have a new company truck with no out of pocket fuel or maintenance cost. Yesterday I got it out to run some errands and got the title message on my DCI. A quick Google search suggested to first clean the Map Sensor. I pulled it out and it was sooty so cleaned it up and reinstalled it. Issue not resolved. My OBDII is a couple years old so didn't see any codes. Today I took it to a friend at AutoZone to get him to check it with his reader. It had the following codes: P20C3 P02BB P221F Stating the most likely solution is to replace diesel emission fluid (DEF) tank assembly.   So, I guess a trip to the dealer is necessary. I read where there was a backorder on these tank assemblies several years ago so hope that has been resolved.

      Do you keep your tires at full capacity? 80psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Are you using a weight distribution hitch system with your trailer as that alone can change the actual tire pressure requirements needed. It would prove interesting to see what the actual individual axle weights are on your truck when you are hooked up to the trailer. In fact when your hooked to the trailer, typically if anything unless it has a large capacity weight distribution system that is over cranked, often the weight on the front axle will be less when hooked up vs driving empty and certainly if one doesn't have a weight distribution hitch. Really the only times one may get up there with weight on the steer axle is if there was a snow plow mounted on the front or a motorcycle on a rack or with a very large jockey tank full of fuel at the front of the box that transfers a bit of its weight to the front axle.    And of course your tires carry more weight for a given tire pressure due to their size vs a stock sized tire so there is that to take into the equation as well.

      Great info here thank you. I just joined, we have a 2014 Silverado truck we bought about 4 years ago with less than 5,000 miles on it. It has approximately 24,000 on it now. It appears to have all the standard issues that people are talking about. Occasional charging problems especially using 110 volt, occasional blinking triangle where nothing will turn on when first starting the truck but it will reset itself if you wait 10 to 15 minutes. Noisy coupler between the flywheel and the generator. Our truck is speed limited to 74 mph, is there any way to change that? The latest issue we have been dealing with is when driving long distance on the highway at full speed the generator does not keep the batteries charged. The meter will go into the yellow/red border Zone for charge status and the yellow triangle will illuminate solid but the generator will not keep the battery charged, not sure why the controller doesn't tell the gas engine to increase RPM to increase generator output it usually stays well below 25 kilowatts even though the battery is discharging and I have to slow down the highway to 45 mph and eventually pull over and let the truck idle to charge the battery so I can continue driving at speed. Has anyone had this issue before or have any idea how to diagnosed it? When via Motors was around it they were very helpful at troubleshooting. This becomes much if the Terrain is hilly and you're towing a small trailer

      Tonneau cover that does not leak water

      By Z45 · Posted

      I have the GMC accessory (REV) cover installed by dealer. Ordered with the truck.  They did a very good install job, can't find a single issue. Some water gets in around the tailgate but no where else.  You can see daylight around the tailgate but that's not the covers fault.  Installation is means everything. Guys at my dealer were seasoned pros, not inexperienced here today good tomorrow types, like many dealers employ for these jobs.   I don't mind paying for a professional job.

      Like others have said, they will all leak. Mainly at the corners.   I have owned several and the best has been my current one. Revolver x4
