So in your alternate reality, illegals=Mexicans? And in your alternate reality, if someone who can trace their family line back to pre-Columbian Chichen Itza and never left the Yucatan area until they decided to head north and hop the border two months ago - then they also can claim that this is their land? Does this apply to other countries too?

By the way, none of the questions require a response. You clearly live in a different world than the rest of us. Illegals are not synonymous with Mexicans, and the Mexicans who are here illegally are illegal because they don't belong here - they came here from somewhere else in Mexico. I live in CA, unlike yourself, and I was born and raised here. I have no need for anyone's silly revisionist history lesson. The issue of enforcing our laws against illegal aliens is not a Mexican issue. It is universal and applies to everyone from everywhere. If you want to be an American, do it the right way - LEGALLY.

Nice try spinning the issue, though.

I'm not sure if there's any point in arguing KevK . Because it's either trolling or bonehead stupidity.

Perhaps it's high time for us to be asking exactly what nasty-nancy's stake in keeping the criminals invaders here is.

The almost total lack of enforcement of our laws by the feds reeks of corruption on a grand scale....what is nasty-nancy's cut of the action?

Really? How do you steal land while paying 15 million dollars for it?

By the way, if parts of the southwest still belong to Mexico and Mexicans and therefore they should be able to enter "their land" at will according to you then what are all these illegal Mexicans doing in New York, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa....well you get my drift. I don't recall Mexico occupying most of the 50 states. Is that some more history you would like to tell us about?

I believe that Pelosi is more of a Stalinist than a Nazi.

It is time to stop talking all this racial crap and start looking at the fact that those people entered without permission. It is time to look at the legal people who came with permission and went through our rules to become citizens.

You must be one of the Democrats who think that amnesty is the answer because most of them would then vote for Dems. Amnesty has been tried in 1986 and the only part of that law that was ever enforced was amnesty.

Illegals are not my countrymen but all Central Americans who entered legally and became citizens accepting our whole culture are my countrymen but those illegals don't want to stay here, they just want to get money and go back home.

Have you ever watched that TV show about the dirtiest jobs in the country? I wonder how many illegals would want to have those jobs since people like you talk about them doing jobs none of our people want to do.

Fancy Nancy always looks like she just saw a rat. Those eyebrows of hers must be tatooed on.

Can you show us any kind of proof of property ownership? Did our nation pay Mexico for the Gadsden Purchase? Come on get real about ownership of land. They tried to hold California and failed. They tried to hold Texas and failed.

Fortify the border and send the illegals home. How do we do that? Most of the military transports could make a couple of trips a day and haul many people per trip. Haul them to the south end of Mexico and see how long it takes them to get back. Buses, trains could haul them too. Yes We Can send them back where they belong and No we don't need illegals to do the work on the farms of the west coast. Plenty of them would come legally and go back home when the work is finished. Get those illegals out of our country.

Breitbart.tv » Pelosi: We Can’t Tell 12M Illegals ‘Go Back to Wherever You Came From or Go to Jail’
She's no more full of garbage than she normally is. In the past she's made it more than clear that she's for letting in basically anyone to the country, and we should expect nothing else from that person.
