Anti-American riots.

Being staged by who, I wonder.

I would think that the protest is the increased Snow-Mexicians on vaca in MX City.

I have no problem with this at all. They want Americans out of Mexico, give it to them. And further, stop the wiring, money orders or transfer by any means if American dollars from the US to Mexico. Quit allowing Mexican oil and oil products to cross our border. Not to mention our government giving them our tax money every year, cut that off as well. Put more emphasis on deporting Mexican illegals, all Mexican illegals. Now that the border is secure shouldn’t be an issue at all.

Isn’t it ironic.

Too bad the indigenous tribes didn’t have the same attitude when the Spanish rolled into town five centuries ago.

And I bet these same people don’t have a problem with their countrymen coming across our border illegally by the millions.

What if we had riots in the other direction?

We are a few demonstrations away if they continue trying to kill ICE agents with the help of Dems and their sanctuary city policies and encouragement by leftist TV news people and the Maxine Waters types.

Imagine a few killings and another attempt on Trump’s life.
The “turn the other cheek” crowd may change over.

The irony in this story of Mexicans not wanting Americans in their neighborhood is absolutely astounding.

There are a lot of foreigners, namely Americans, coming to live here.

And they bring MUCHO DINERO $$$$! The Mexican 'government' does not immediately, or ever, provide $$$, housing, medical care, etc.

That said, there is no effen way I am ever visiting Mexico again. This Irish Catholic gringo is fluent in Spanish, reading, writing, and speaking. I have lived, worked, and even participated in some excavation of a Mayan city in Belize.

In the 1990s, when it was "safe" to be in Mexico, one of the locals explained the Mexican version of car insurance for auto accidents. If two or more cars are in a collision, the first family of the drivers to arrive on the scene "collects" for the damages to their car.

The Mexico City Museum of Anthropology is absolutely amazing. I have spent many, many days there. I will have to rely on those memories.

It already changed, here at least.

I would prefer that my niece was home before they amp up this crap. Mission work, not a tourist.

The Aztecs kind of did. La Noche Triste and all that...
