Considering their state was founded by people who migrated to Mexico for work, then refused to leave and started a revolution, I'm thinking they don't.

Are they not Americans? Are we all of the sudden not in this together? No.

Texans today were born in Texas, they are 100% legal American born citizens. The people that emigrated to and revolted in Mexican-controlled Texas have been dead for over a century, maybe you could argue they would have no right to complain but a natural born citizen or legal immigrant has every right to complain about illegals coming into their great state.

Yes they do, Texas is part of the U.S. If Mexico wants Texas back, they should send in an army to take it. If the wave of illegal aliens is the start of a their taking it back, I hope they don't complain about the consequences (remember the Civil War, if a state wants to secede, there will be a lot of us willing to prevent that). And thanks for reminding us all about what really is going on with the illegal aliens.

The people who moved to Texas did so legally.
The revolution was the result of Mexico ignoring the treaty.
Today Mexicans come here illegally and are ignoring our sovernity of the USA.

Everyone has a right to complain about illegal immigration. After all, It's illegal, isn't it??
Also, It's costing everyone including Texans a lot of tax dollars.

Texas was bought from Mexico fair & square. Pay attention.

No, because Mexicans cross the borders from Texas. Texans don't seem to care too much about protecting the border

Yes, they have a right to complain. We can't change history, just deal with now.
What you are saying is like saying blacks have the right to cry about slavery.

You're right. Heck, you should vacate your house right now and give it to some American Indian family and while you are at it, give them everything you own as a reparation.
