Alberto attended a demonstration by Mexican-Americans in Douglas, Arizona, which was held to demonstrate against laws allowing law enforcement officers to stop any vehicle occupied by Mexican-Americans without probable cause for the purpose of
verification of U.S. citizenship. During the demonstration, Alberto lowered an American flag that was flying in front of a private business. Alberto removed the flag and tossed it onto the ground. He then soaked the flag in lighter fluid and set fire to the flag. Alberto taunted anyone standing around or passing by in a motor vehicle to stop him from committing the act.
