As well they should be. And for the record, I would rather give them CA than NM!

It wasn't Mexico that ceded lands with the treaties, it was SPAIN. Spain could have just as easily ceded Mexico to the U.S. as California. Mexico was not an independent country when these were ceded, they were colonies of SPAIN. Therefore, they have no more claim to New Mexico and California than they do to the various other former Spanish territories in South and Central America. Why don't they try to lay claim to El Salvador, or Venezuela.

I don't agree with giving them CA. Only the eastern half, split it down the middle!/sar Even then, hell no, we won't give any of the US to these fu**ing pirates who are masquerading as immigrants! Run the bast**** back to where they came from, put them in jail.

The government better wake up this or soon there will be massive shooting in the streets!

Pretty much already has happened my friend. This is not the same state I was proud to have been born in.

I am not sure giving California to Mexico would work because California would surly bankrupt Mexico in a couple of years!

I am not willing to give them one square inch. If they want Mexican Wer II, then we need to keep all of Mexico this time around.
