Mr. Kessler, recently of Eastern Europe by way of Los Angeles, is of the opinion that This Is Mexico and It's Their Land, Not Yours.

[JSDude1]

Texas was ALREADY a part of the US (or at least an independent Country).

.... According to this logic ...... Does this mean that the previous owner of Mr. Kessler's house before he bought it ...... Is actually the legal owner of his house and not him?

.... Liberal logic would be quite entertaining and amusing if they weren't the ones actually running what is left of what was once called "The Free World."

I, for one, would happily give California back to Mexico and would consider throwing in some boot. California’s pension debt is ultimately going to be paid by “us” if we don’t let Mexico have it. Think we could get them to take New Messico as well?

If that doesn’t work, and since Yucca Mountain is on hold, could we have thirty days to get our friends out - then turn LA into a nuclear test site?

The guy is a friggin’ POET! Yeah, that’s a qualification for valid social, political, and historical insight.

And yet, if someone were to argue that the East Coast somehow "belonged" to its first settlers, he'd probably object.

Like a lot of North Americans, he doesn't understand that Mexico and Latin America have many internal fissures, just as we do here. Indians, Spaniards, Mestizos, and Blacks weren't all one happy family.

And if the US hadn't entered the picture, we might see the same conflicts going on between residents of San Francisco, Los Angeles, Santa Fe, San Antonio, and migrants from further South.

I just realised he actually wrote Texas was aquired from Mexico in 1848, lumping it in with California.

BZZZZTTTT! Wrong!

That 1836 Mexican surrender to independent Texas must have slipped his mind.

Texans don’t owe Mexico squat.

So let see on California. .. Spain had it, then Mexico, then the US.. of the three who had it the shortest time?.. and lets not forget Russia had a piece of California for a time.

And by this same logic.. shouldn't the United States reassert its claims to all of the Oregon territory again?.. hey Canada..its 54.40 or fight!. but let's start applying it to Europe. . I'm sure Germany would like East Prussia back from Russia and that big chunk that now Poland

"...The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, which ended the Mexican War and for a cool $15 million acquired what is now the entire southwestern United States — Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah and parts of Wyoming and Colorado — from Mexico was an uncannily well-timed moment in U.S. history.

The guy should learn to write. That was a nauseating run on sentence.

[Brass Lamp]

This one represents the typical level of education enjoyed by the “informing” class. He actually believes that Texas was acquired in the Mexican-American War. Twat!

[Pelham]

Deport the bastard.

My wife and I are both 5th generation so. Californians and there isn't a mexican in either of our families!

In the early days of California there were spanish but no mexicans.

The first mexicans were the offspring of the spanish priests from the indians they roped and drug in to build the missions!
