I respect and welcome new and new-ish Americans who actually want to BE Americans.
I grew up in San Antonio in the 70s. There are many, many Hispanics there that are not “new-ish” Americans, but trace back to being part of the Republic of Texas. They have deeper, longer roots than many of the Irish and Italian decedents on the east coast.
Juan Seguin is a State hero in Texas, and many, many of the Hispanics in Texas are very proud to have been Americans for four, five, six or seven generations.
Those Hispanics hate the illegal aliens.
