The UN Flag to Fly Over THE ALAMO?

[longknife]

You gotta be kidding. Unfortunately, that's not the case. Read the following to be as outraged as I am:United Nations To Take Over The Alamo | EUTimes.net

Davey Crockett will be spinning in his grave.

Reactionary far right loony Texans are entitled to their opinion but nothing more.

The article reads: "San Antonio, Texas Mayor Julián Castro is currently negotiating with the United Nations to designate the Alamo as a UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site, meaning that a blue UN flag may fly above the historic shrine of liberty once it falls under UN control. UNESCO, a specialized agency within the UN, created the World Heritage Site status out of a 1972 international agreement, which calls for nations to join together to manage historical sites through “collective assistance.” “San Antonio has the opportunity for its five Spanish Colonial Missions [including the Alamo] to be nominated to be the first UNESCO World Heritage site in the State of Texas and the 22nd World Heritage designation in the United States,” the October 2013 City of San Antonio newsletter reads.

I personally disagree but the suggestion does not warrant longknife's loony reaction.

And I suppose you want UN regulations and rules to take precedence over US laws?
