This viewpoint is absolutely ridiculous and incredibly offensive to this Texan. I don't care who likes it or dislikes it, we fought and died for that land. Mexicans fought and died, too. They lost. We won and created a bastion of freedom and a land of pride, self respect and a gracious integrity which will not be wiped away because somebody's feelings might get hurt.

It's about damn time "immigrants" started seeing themselves as Americans rather than as strangers in a strange land with no allegiance to that land and the values held by its peoples.

If those seeking to "change" Texas history simply to coddle people think they're in for an easy road, they've got another thing coming. They better not expect to be successful in initiating this change. We've fought a war or two and we know how to win.

That a Texan enough response for ya? REMEMBER THE ALAMO! (and thanks Juan Antonio, for bringing this to light)

Political correctness at it's worst. They'll have the Anglo kids apologizing to the Mexican kids for their ancestors fighting back in that war.

There's a lot of places in Texas where you'll find many more Mexican flags displayed than the American flag. Not all intend to be Americans but they do want our money.

That sounded so good, I had to hear it again!

I wasn't born in Texas, but I got here as fast as I could.

Re: Your #9: although a North Carolina resident currently, I was born in San Antonio and lived in Lubbock, Austin, and Abilene over a space of a fair number of years. I was going to respond to this thread, but in my opinion, you have given the definitive response. Well-said.

The immigrants? A bunch of PC, left-wing Anglos, more likely.

Texas defeated Mexico but the Mexicans are reclaiming Texas via illegal immigration and by virtue of a very high birth rate. Having 20 children is common in Mexico.......machismo, they call it! We must stop illegal immigration before the Mexican voting block becomes so large that we cannot do it politically!
