it has been said- at least 80% of “Mexicans” are Lipan Apache---They are Southern Athabaskan (Apachean) Native Americans whose traditional territory included present-day Texas, New Mexico, Colorado and the northern Mexican states of Chihuahua, Nuevo León, Coahuila, and Tamaulipas prior to the 17th century.
You need to stop slamming your head. You have lost enough brain cells already. A 100,000 years ago there were no humans in North or South America. Now what is your theory to how they got here? Let me simplify it for you.

Three choices:

A) They materialized from thin air.
B) They suddenly evolved from monkeys.
C) They came from somewhere else

Let's see how you do on a simple multiple choice question.

You really should have learned this before high school.

The British were the first to conquer here on a grand scale paving the way for it to become 'America'. Imagine if the British didn't conquer this land...it would all be disgusting and poverty stricken just like Tijuana and the other 99% of Mexico. I'm guessing your people only wanted to come to this land because of what Americans built it in to...right? If Mexicans would have built this land it would just be an extension of Tijuana...you probably wouldn't want to settle in a place just like Tijuana...with no public assistance system? I'll bet there are a lot of Mexicans here thanking God the British won this land for obvious reasons.
Lets stop with all the senseless semantics and talk about what's happening here now...that's all anyone really cares about."
And you can keep re-posting it. It will continue to be BS.
How this country might have looked if the British hadn't supplanted the Dutch, French and Spanish is pure conjecture on your part.
The fact that you chose to disparage the heritage of millions of American citizens tells me all I need to know about your point of view.

I notice you didn't answer my question: can you differentiate a legal Hispanic from an illegal one by sight?

Your ridiculous post never addressed the OP. Of course the OP is right. Hispanics aren't stupid. They don't want their wages lowered by more competition. Anyone with a bit of common sense understands this.

Actually it is not pure conjecture. Majored in economics and took a course that quite well explained why areas that were under British control are, to this day, wealthier than those that were under Spanish control. To make a long story short Spain depended on massive land grants and selling monopolies on the trade of goods that effectively deprived the vast majority of individuals from being able to possess land or enter into many businesses. Thus no development of the middle class as you had in British controlled colonies.

How many generations do you think are required?

One question for the OP: do you have a test to determine if someone is legal or illegal on sight?

Just wondering.

We all originated in Africa and branched out. The so-called natives didn't just sprout up out of the ground like corn. They migrated over the Bering Strait no different than those who migrated here from Europe. There were no immigration laws so everyone had a right to migrate to this continent. The subsequent European generations born on our soil where just as native as the descendants of those who came over the Bering Strait. You're comparing a wide open frontier of an uncivilized world to modern day borders which are internationally recognized along with immigration laws and set governments today?

Quite true. All one has to do is compare San Diego to Tijuana.

Did you not read the article?- and when I was in high school "EVE" was the latest discovery of the time-- our Momma EVE from the deep jungles of Africa- .
Why is the concept that "unknown" amount of years ago, people did travel and end up all over the world? I never mentioned 100,000 years, but the article kind of mentions even older than that- just quoting. And for the 2nd time, only Latin's I know that want Trump- were P.Ricans - and NOW that he said let PR sink, they have too much debt to help them, maybe NOT anymore.

Why should anyone believe the POTUS need only deal with only one issue and judge the candidates as if that's true?

BTW, I'm using your own words. So, if I were latino, why would I vote for someone that thinks the above about me???
That's a pretty stupid post, but your list sounds like a description of Obama voters.

Maybe because it's a stupid question.

Can you differentiate a legal German from an illegal one by sight?
