Why the Alamo and not some city, state or federal office building? Even the most historically-challenged who live among us has at least a passing acquaintance with the implications and symbolism of the Alamo - and in the lack of any threat from the Mexican government itself - who could possibly be in their cross-hairs, other than the native-born people of that nation, whom these racists regard with the highest disdain?

I leave.

It's a similar situation when you see a police officer. They have the gun, so such encounters should be avoided as much as possible.
