Evening Russ, Jose....

Still a sore spot with me that Mexico still has our flag they took from the Alamo. I understand to the Victor goes the spoils, but you would have thought by now some Goddamn politician would have enough ***** to demand the return of that flag or else. Blood of the first Freedom Fighters in Texas are on that Flag, and from what I've read, it's been treated poorly and is in shitty condition...

I saw the flag in the early 70’s while taking a tour of Maximillian’s castle in Mexico City. I understand that it has been long relegated to the back room and is in need of restoration.

You should have pulled a Jason Statham Rutherford and took it back. Would have made a great movie....
