Yeah, I know what you're saying; but, IMHO, if war breaks out here, I doubt very much that latinos will start it, much less do so in order to take over the southwest. If something starts, IMO, it will be amongst naturalized Americans of all ethnic backgrounds who have felt disenfranchised, disowned and violated by their so-called representatives. There will be a civil war here before there is an invasion from Mexico. And I think the markers are all present for war here. I don't want to see it happen; but, I'm also sure Washington, Franklin, et al did not want war in their time either. Evil proliferates when good men fail to act. And if war breaks out here, I'm sure those words will be associated with it. Not any latino nationalist goofyness - with all due respect. Mexico would become a grease spot and a new desert state in our union if they tried anything and I'm pretty sure they know it LOL.
I think it would start here with radicalized Mexican-Americans.
You weren't in our rural town just before the Prop 187 vote to cut benefits to illegals back in the early '90's.
There was a big march through our small town with a lot of young Mexican-Americans screaming and shaking clenched fists and roughing up some motorists and cars.
And then a bunch of American voters were so shocked they went out and voted for the proposition...which a shopped liberal judge threw out.
The liberal teachers radicalize them. MECHA/MAPPA (? not sure) funds them going to college and radicalizes them more, where "ethnic studies" keeps up the process.
Have you heard their stuff about "Aztecland" and taking it back and killing all us Anglos?
The Aztecs were actually a very vicious and evil and brutal people who conquered the inhabitants of Mexico not long before the Spanish conquistadors arrived, who were also vicious. And the recent governments of Mexico have also been vicious toward native tribe members in Mexico.
They don't have a lot of good role models from their culture, these young Mexican Americans, as far as I can tell.
