Was Spain's relic, Mexico, innocently attacked and slaughtered? Did they have no army?

Question

Can you adjudge this logic? It's an answer to a question I asked concerning the importance of industrial and post-industrial modernism in the Americas.

"Not too long ago, the European invaded North America, kidnapping Africans from their homelands forcing slavery by torture and murder, while conducting near genocide on the Native Americans and then pushing the Mexicans South and then created their own Mexican Border, yes you the white American are the illegal, the entire South was once Mexico until hundreds of thousands of Mexican paid the price of being slaughtered, from the North of Canada to the tip of South America for tens of thousands of years the entire continent was brown skin, get used to it."

Steddy Voter, you are so pistol hot (and darned accurate) I could blow a kiss! Thanks!
...

Cheek it is, Steddy.

McKenzie: Right on! Powerful stuff. I know the tribes warred amongst themselves but has their ever been a definitive history written about it? Though most people are peaceful, without written law, chaos is inevitable.

You two have provided some of the most intelligent answers I've seen given ANY question. Thanks!

Answer 1

They came here just as the First Americans did (both Europeans and First Americans are in my ancestry).
The Europeans warred, just as the native tribes did.

They won.

How dare they be better at warfare!

Silly.

Were there wrongs done? Heck, yes. By BOTH sides.
Funny that you forget that. I have ancestry on both sides (Iroquois) and I haven't forgotten.

Most of the African slaves gained all through the beginning of slave trade were slaves of the native tribes sold to traders! They TAUGHT us slavery in Africa, where it had been going on for thousands of years.

Kidnapped? No. They sold them to us, and continued that slavery even until today in some areas.

We gave it up pretty quick, compared to many nations.

There were a handful of Mexicans in California, otherwise there were NO Mexicans north of the Rio Grande until well into the 20th century. Land might have been "claimed" but no Mexicans LIVED there. That is a common misconception, easily checked.

What bigoted nonsense in that answer. America hating is no longer cool. We LIKE the truth, we know our past, and you can't twist it and expect us to remain silent.

Answer 2

I was going to ignore this question, but I feel the need to point something out. Europeans did not kidnap Africans. They bought them from the other Africans who captured them and sold them. It was the African tribal leaders that sold off enemy tribesmen. Not saying that it was right for anyone to participate in the trade or to buy people, but please, lets get the facts straight. As much as some people want to blame every woe in the world on the white man, that's not always the case.

Oh, another point (thanks to McKenzie for reminding me) - It was only after the Mexican American war that Mexico decided to try to colonize and populate the northern areas of Mexico.

Edit: Only on my cheek, please!

Answer 3

All I can assume (from that statement taken in isolation) is that we wiped out the flower of their civilization at Chapultepec, and their ability to track logic never recovered.

Answer 4

That statement is so full of errors it's not funny.
