THANK YOU! It's about f**king time someone pointed this out. How
ridiculous is it to see a guy who's half Spanish claiming that the
Apaches are his ancestors and therefore the land of California (and
three or so other states) was stolen from HIM? It is absolutely
ridiculous. There is not a bit of merit in someone whose ancestors
killed as many natives in Mexico, pro****tionately as other European
colonists did in North America claiming to be a "native" to the
Southwestern United States.
It is the very height of lunacy and it's about time it was pointed
out. Don't you feel like barfing when you see one of the idiots from the
"La Rasa" organization talking about how California "...is not
California, USA; it's California, occupied Mexico"?

Yes indeed, and while it's true that many Mexicans are of mixed
race, the ones who are mostly of native blood are the ones who are STILL
oppressed there. Of course, that doesn't stop the dweebs from claiming
that they're natives and are being oppressed by America's immigration
policy.

Of course not. I don't think there's even common cultural ties
from any of the other cultural groups of South or Central America to
North American natives. Ask an Apache or Hopi if the Mayans were close
relatives; PLEASE!

Well, let's do be sure to identify the problem correctly however.
The problem is not immigrants from Mexico wanting to come to the US to
have a better life; it's cor****ate interests in the US who want wage
standards driven down and hope to use those people to get that
accomplished.
The best way to fight illegal immigration in this case would be to
make sure the federal law that no worker (legal or otherwise) can be
paid less for doing any job in the US than American would be paid for
doing it. That at once kills the motivation for the people who really
make the decisions for the nation to have their stooges in Wa****ngton DC
draft any more amnesty bills, and it will also ensure that those who've
already emigrated get a fair shake from "the system".
