Did we call hispanic marchers out when the majority carried American flags and a small minority displayed Mexican or Che flags. Or OWS marchers where a very few carried the old hammer and sickle ?

A very few malcontents buried in a sea of American flags does not define the majority there. They are Veterans, we paint them in this thread as conservatives, racists, KKK etc. because of a very few out of tens of thousands.

I am a Veteran as there are many here on DU. Am not conservative, KKK or a racist. DU'ers as a whole have always kept from lumping an entire group based on the actions of a few in the group.

I did see tens of thousands of American Veterans spanning half a dozen wars.
