They link on their by laws page to LARAZA.

That is an explicit statement of solidarity with an anti-American organization, who has stated their goals are The Reqoncuista, a return of so called Mexican lands to ghe Mexican people, which where, in their words “Stolen by the White Man”(sic)

It is a fantasy that there was ever a collective Mexican people, as there wasn’t during or before the synthetic claim of stolen lands.

It should be noted that there are various languages of indiginous peoples over the centuries such as:

“Nahuatl, Yucatec, Tzotzil, Mixtec, Zapotec, Otomi, Huichol, Totonac and other living 54 languages along the Mexican territory, as well as Spanish.”

That is more than 65 claimed or known languages of disparate peoples who were organized as clans, bands and tribes, each competitors to each other before the modern era.

There was no collective Mexican people nor a homogenous Mexican nation until the 20th century and even today, each tribe has their own imperatives arguing against the central government headquartered in Mexico City.

The most notorious examples are the tribes seeking autonomy for self determination seperate from the Federal goverment, who acts, by force, against the tribes, for various business interests and subjugates the native peoples by force, stealing their lands, imprisoning anyone opposed to the Federal Jack Boot thugs who act as a proxy force on behalf of businesses, with no regard for culture and families of local tribes.

Beside all that, Mexico has a policy of exporting their people, who only wish to practice their local customs, way of life and preservation of culture, so big business legal and criminal can co-opt the lands.

Mexico is a great nation(/S) that many wish to leave, so they may and can pursue what is the the American Dream:

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happyness, so their families might improve their lot in life and give meaning to heritage of passing on “The Good Struggle” for their progeny.

Mexicans come to America because they know they have a chance to become anything or anyone, with equal opportunity not found nor possible in their homeland.

It is sad people are forced to leave their families, neighborhoods, lands, the smells of memories and the country they wish they could be proud of.

Mexico should be ashamed they are incapable of creating laws and a culture where each individual is equal any other citizen.

Pathetic is a kind word to describe the culture and policies that force migration because parity of opportunity to pursue ones dreams is non-existent.

If Mexicans have a certain “Heritage” then what conclusions are we to draw of the Canadian Heritage.

They also border the United States and yet, there is no mass yearning to leave their families and country.

Why? The laws and culture enable all who wish for any station in life to do so, as a matter of desire and will, with no fear some greedy persons or corporation will engage the government to steal ideas, lands for their nefarious and unfair business interest.

Lastly, there can be no Reqonquista.

Looking at the flag of California gives us a hint as to why:

California, like Texas was a Lone Star State. It is alluded to by the star on the flag and then there is the Bear on the Flag, which is symbolic of The Bear Flag Revolt, when Californians left the barely independent country of Mexico, who had also revolted against Spain some 20 plus years earlier but, had no ability to govern the territory of California nor provide any benefit economically, as their government was still in its formative yearsx with an economic system that such a basket case they could not afford to pay for the administration of then government services.

In fact, they were a lousy debtor nation which time and again reneged and failed to pay its obligations to nations such as France, who invaded in 1862 to demand payment and force Mexico to live up to its promise to pay for loans amd goods.

Today, Cinco de Mayo is well celebrated in the US but, is a minor blip in Mexico itself, probably because it is and should be embarassing to celebrate an invasion caused by irresponsible policy.

So, forward to the Modern era and some idiots who insist and demand California be returned to Mexico.

It is not possible for a so called “Reqonquista”.

Mexico cannot currently manage to induce their own people to stay but rather, it compells them to leave; No one in their right mind and divorced from idiot fantasy would would want to perform an act which be suicidal.

In Mexico, you have a mostly European Spanish upper class and a mostly mestizo or Indio (of various tribes) underclass. There isn't any sense of common culture, common cause or any kind of solidarity between them.

In fact, the ruling "Blancos" are eager to dump as many Mestizos and Indios on our side of the border as they can because offloading their surplus population is the only thing that prevents mass riots and Chavez-style Leftist revolutions. It's also necessary to keep down the number of ordinary street criminals and gangsters in Mexico.

When Trump says that Mexico isn't exactly sending us its best and brightest, nobody agrees more than the Mexican elites who dump their dregs on our side of the border as a matter of policy.
