Okay whatever. Why are people in arms? Because this is not their country. When the USA did it they were actually planing on taking the land away from mexico (just like spaniards did to the indeginous people). So people don't like the idea of people waving Mexican flags in this country (keep in mind I'm not one of those people).

It's not their country? Well it is. A lot of people waiving those flags ARE American citizens. But they're of Mexican Descent. AND they're not trying to take the land away... all they're doing is waiving a fuckin' flag. People need to face the fact that this land, whether or not it "belongs" to the U.S. was stolen from Mexicans. Mexicans, just as Native Americans, have EVERY right to rep their homeland here, since it was taken away from them by "us."

I never said they were trying to take back the land that wasn't even originally theirs. And I have no problem with them reping their homeland (check out the flag in my sig). People are just saying it's a little stupid when you are protesting about people staying/coming in the USA.

Do people not see the point of them waiving their flags? They're stating that this IS Mexico. The Americans are the "illegals" as they crossed the Mexican border to invade the South West.

He had no rights to sell the land anymore though.
