Man: You must be Gary. I'm from Lucky Cow corporate. Gary: I'm so glad you're here! I've never seen our customers so upset! Man: Well, our patrons don't care about, but when you hung up that Mexican flag, it angered people nationwide. So we need you to hang this sign in the window. Gary: Of course! I'll do whatever it takes!

Sadly, the strip ended more than a decade ago. The following is taken directly from Wikipedia:
The strip began on April 21, 2003, and the last strip ran on February 2, 2008. The strip appeared in about 50 papers…
Lucky Cow ended in a dramatic fashion with its final series, in which the employees of the franchise are getting ready to welcome Javier, a Mexican exchange student who will be working there, to the United States. To make him feel at home, Gary hangs a Mexican flag in front of the restaurant, launching a controversy when photographs turn up on the internet with the caption, “United States of Mexico? When did Lucky Cow start hating America?!” Picketers, including Clare, line up outside the restaurant demanding a nationwide boycott of Lucky Cow franchises. Lucky Cow corporate responds to the damage the flag incident has caused by closing the franchise and selling the premises to another business—Cash Cow, which lends title loans. The final strip ran on February 2, 2008.

Like the rest of you, I’m sad too.
