I am downvoting this because of the descendants of the illegal ANGLO immigrants who came to Texas in the early 19th century profit and cheer the criminalization of those doing the same thing.

Its almost as if that was a bad thing and we want to prevent that bad thing from happening again.

Nah fam, those people were _pioneers_, get it? They braved the harsh conditions and took what was there after expelling the native savages. /s

[rukittenme]

There's a distinction between "killing" and "being killed". Both should be avoided for different reasons.

[bluthru]

Nah fam, those noble savages grew from the soil and never battled for territory, ever. /s

[bluthru]

That's an entirely different discussion. War is war. You act as if no humans ever battled for the territory before the 19th century.

Should Mexico let anyone in south of its border?

[nubianwarrior]

No it’s not. America was not at war with Mexico during 1812-1836. Tens of thousands of gringos came and illegally squatted on land as well as raped and killed numerous Tejano families for their land. You should brush up on your history.

[empath75]

It does. Show up at the border any time as an American citizen and they stamp your password and let you in.
