That's a good idea especially if you continue to allow Mexico to colonize Texas.

There goes the phraze "Remember the Alamo"

Just as a point of general information,...... many people don't know that there were a sizeable number of Mexicans fighting along side the Texians at the Alamo and also at San Jacinto when Texas won their Independence.

There were generations of Mexican families residing in Texas before it was colonized. One reason groups of Americans were allowed in and given land grants was to provide a buffer between the Commanches and those original Mexicans.

The Texas towns of Sequin and Navarro are named after two of those Mexican defenders of the Alamo.

It is wrong to assume that all Texas hispanics are pro illegal immigration. Many are quite conservative.
