Best wishes...

"That's why I said "Mexican-Americans." And I don't see why they're genetic make-up is relevant."


Most people I know who are 5th or 6th generation Americans are Americans and don't identify all that much with Mexico. I know New Mexicans that speak Spanish and everything but will boast they've never stepped foot into Mexico and never will. I wouldn't consider them to be Mexicans. If their families never came from Mexico then it's even more inaccurate to call them Mexicans or Mexican-Americans. Most say they are Spanish-Americans or will say they're Spanish-Indian Americans some use "hispanic".

Check out this guy's "hate crime":

It's like I said before. Once we conquered the Apaches, Commanches, and Navajos, we opened the door for the Mexican invasion. If they had tried this 120 years ago, they would be hanging over a fire having their brains roasted.

Ha! Mexican-American on Mexican racism leads to a "hate crime". Will wonders never cease?

[FITZ]

Well, the Mexicans were here long before we were.

Actually what was here was Spanish and we never kicked them out, most of the Spaniards and Spaniard-Indians stayed, it's evident from some last names in the SW. Mexico was a very weak government from the start and it couldn't hold onto territory it had when it became independent from Spain. Mexico only had these territories about 25 years, if anyone could come reclaim them, it would have to be Spain but it already gave them to Mexico.

The Spaniards and Chicanos aren't close to being the same people, look what the Chicanos went and did to Don Juan de Onate's statue in Albuquerque that the Spanish-Americans tried to have to commemorate the Spanish Conquest of the SW USA.

Isn't that the weirdest bit of political correctness in an article you've ever seen? They had to invent "cultural-racism hate crime" because it was hispanic against hispanic which confuses them. They don't realize some people don't like foreigners at all ---like this guy probably, some don't like foreigners when they attempt to take over. I'm sure if the offender was lighter skinned, the article would have carefully mentioned that but likely he wasn't.

[dennisw]

Yes it was hatred of foreigners that lead him to shoot I guess. Perhaps there was something else that's not mentioned in the article. Was there a feud? Were the "Mexicans" illegal and/or playing loud music and making a mess of their yard? 

My speculation would be the same as yours that the shooter was of Spanish Mexican descent and the ones shot at were darker Mestizos. New Mexico has always been one of our poorest states. A huge influx of illegal Mexicans sure won't help.

"I agree, but then I say the same thing about that silly slaveholders' rebellion back in '61."

Sorry, but I don't see the connection.

[Wonder Warthog]

"I don't think of an illegal Mexican as any less welcome than, say, a high tech worker on the H1B program. We have a shortage of all kinds of workers in this country."

Sorry, but there is a HUGE difference between'em. The H1B worker is working legally within the system. The "illegal Mexican" is a criminal. All such should be rounded up and sent home (and that INCLUDES the H1B types that illegally overstay their visas).

[Wonder Warthog]

".... only problem is Comanche hated us Anglos even more."

Not anymore--they admit we whipped their asses fair and square (from an editorial by a nationally syndicated columnist of Comanche descent--I can't think of the guys' name right now).

"The real battle is here and we are losing."

I agree. But we're losing because we're fighting within the parameters set by the opposition, and our 'leadership' is more interested in not offending anyone (except us) rather than getting the job done.

Five or ten minutes everyday spent in the 'Latest Articles,' instead of the 'Latest Posts' field would have allowed you to find this thread.

FWIW, I rarely peruse the latest posts section rather than latest articles.

The solution: build a double-tiered, steel reinforced concrete wall at both borders and give the Border Patrol, Customs, INS and Coast Guard a bigger budget and more lattitude so they can do their jobs properly.

Do you remember where the Pink Poodle house is in Prunedale? I live right behind that house. Believe it or not , the county finally built an overpass at San Miguel Canyon Rd. Enough people got killed I guess. Also, the U.S. 101 bypass finally got approved.
You are dead on about Salinas. It is a northern state of Mexico. Monterey is still great. That is where we go out to dinner and shop. It is still ultra-left wing though.

I agree whole heartedly on the wall, but I would like to add that it is time for the voice of the people to reach out and smack some sense back into our government. We the people have the power to get things back in order. Start patitions in your neighborhoods, send letters to your reps, mayors, and governors. If our voting system is being corrupted by the blind greed and personal agendas of our leaders then get them out of OUR HOUSE! (the WH) Stop being sheep if you don't like where the shepard is leading you. I for one am letting my voice be heard and I hope that enyone else in this forum is doing everything they can to stop these self destructive antics our legislation is allowing.

nationally syndicated columnist of Comanche descent..

Do you mean David Yeagley? He has a thing called "Bad Eagle.com" and writes in Frontpagemag I think.
