Firing her for making these comments is way out of line and most certainly death threats are abhorrent. However.. people fly flags to show pride in their ethnicity. My flying of the Irish or Portuguese flag is a display of pride in my ancestral origins, not an allegiance to those countries.

I understand. I guess the Immigrant problem that we have now with Mexico just makes this situation a "sore point". I live in Texas and I don't fly the Confederate Flag, like some people do, but if it did that doesn't mean I'm racist; but, it would be another "sore point" with many like this situation. But, don't try to tell some "good ol' Texas boy" to take down his Confederate Flag. (You've been warned. LOL!)
