Norte Mexico 175 years ago.
From one American to another, Texas is not North Mexico and we have a proud heritage here in Texas. Texans fought for their freedom on their own and we would do it again.

The rest of our country doesn’t want to end up like Texas and I, for one, hold Texans in good part responsible that we’ve gone down that road as far as we have.
You might want to run that by LaRaza because they say your squatting on their land.
