Yep, Mexico didn't recognize the indepence (and annexation) of Texas until it was forced to do so under US duress. And as for all the "stolen" land? Well, the US did pay for it. Pennies an acre, and again, Mexico was forced into doing it due to the American occupation of the capital. And all of this after an invasion brought about by Polk on false pretenses...
Anyhoo, Americans can run their mouths off as much as they want. They do it anyway. Too bad their whiny spouting means nothing.

Get over the it's Mexico's land. Mexico could own all of South America and still they are so helpless to do anything, all they can suggest for a better future is go to America. If they want the land back so bad, stop talking about it and do something about it.Instead of worrying about land-- worry about low levels of education. Mexicans have the right to box,play baseball, even sing it's like their brains have not developed they simply lack use of the brain muscle because they do not advance. Had you been around in the 80's the illegals were doing the same thing then as now.

In the second half of the 20th Century, certain small rebellious groups in Texas have claimed that the Annexation of Texas by the United States was illegal, but the U.S. Courts have always ruled in favor of the validity of the Annexation, noting the Ordinace of Annexation passed by the Texas congress, and the presence of and the consent of the Texas President at above-mention transfer of authority ceremony in 1846. Ever since that point, Texas has been the American Lone Star State, except for its foray into the Confederacy in 1861-65.

Here's a news flash for ya. The people who live in Mexico today are not the original occupants of that land. They, or rather their ancestors, "stole" it from those who were there first. Why do you think they speak Spanish, and not Mexican. By your argument the Mexicans in Mexico today should probably go back to Spain.
I doubt there is one country today who's occupants are the original people of the land. In fact the ancestors of those in the USA today came here because they, in effect, had their land stolen from them by the so called nobility of Europe and on and on it goes, so I think you better come up with a bit more compelling argument than this.

Yes, I don't just think so, I KNOW SO!! The USA Whooped Mexico's @ss and then paid $15 million for the privilege. Illegal people are breaking our law. They are BEING deported!!
chman2003 - Puerto Rico has nothing to do with this issue. They are a Commonwealth of the United States.

lands change hands over time, who was Mexico before Mexico, so it can go on and on. A citizen here has the right to help make decisions about our country. I a Mexican citizen, wants to be here, proper means need to be followed. Citizenship rules and laws and change as the current conditions dictate or mandate. life is full of changes.

Yes, what was then was then and what is now is now, living in the now, we have laws and many have broken them to get here. I think Americans should uphold the law, after all illegal is still not legal.
