And Spain stole the land from the Indians. Try putting a Don Onate statue somewhere in the SW USA --- and you'll quickly find out the problems the Indians and even Chicanos had with Spanish rule of these territories. And amazingly --- the descendents of the Spaniards in the SW --- many Spanish-American Indian descendents have never objected to becoming part of the USA. In fact Tejanos helped fight off the Mexicans in the war of Texas independence. And what might be more amazing to you yet --- if Mexico tries to annex the SW --- you will see Spanish named people gladly going to war against Mexico. You have no clue how it is here --- long time Spanish/Indian Americans of the SW do not want to be part of Mexico, most are very patriotic Americans --- and many are opposed to massive immigration from Mexico for the same reasons as everyone else.

"And what might be more amazing to you yet "

If ANY Country, Mexico included, tries to annex ANY part of the U.S., I'll fight them.
