Arizona was a part of Mexico long before White people stole it.The U.S. paid for it, and the U.S. built its present-day infrastructure.
Doesn't sound like stealing, now does it?
Now if she's referring to the Spaniards, that's a different story. ;-)

The Treaty of Guadelupe Hidalgo was written in Mexico because the U.S. Army was occupying the country after the incompetent Mexican Army, led by a dictator and stiffened by Irish traitors, lost every battle of the war. Every battle. Brave Mexican soldiers lost their lives because the Mexican leaders were more interested in enriching themselves than building an army. Meanwhile, the U.S. Army built an officer corps under sterling officers such as Winfield Scott and Robert E. Lee, and led their troops to victory.
