All other cultures were and are minority ones that didn't and aren't joining the melting pot. You are comparing an illegal invasion in modern times with internationally recognized borders to that?
The United States declared war on Mexico in 1846 and took that territory by force.

They did not willingly "sell" us that land for $15m. We declared war; we put a gun to their heads and forced them to give it to us, and then we decided we'd give them $15m in the treaty so it didn't look as bad.

Actually, crime is crime. Being of a different race doesn't make you prone to crime. Being raised in a broken home/family in a broken environment, being desperate, that makes one more prone to criminal activity. So if people of different races living around you are not being criminals, are actually being hardworking, productive people, would it still bother you to be around those persons? Or does being from a different race than your own automatically mean "criminal-bent and nutty"?

I wish someone would tell me how diversity is harmful to me. However, no one is answering that.

All that DID matter was working hard and making money, whatever your ethnic background (and church, for most of them). When that's all you're focused on, then people get along great. And everybody prospers, oddly enogh.

Today, this phony push for "Diversity" has pushed all of that aside.

I could not agree with you more. As a native Californian, I have seen how the 'multicultural hoax,' is a pretext. It's a scam, scheme, and façade for the new world order and we're going to defeat this. Multiculturalism is forced and it actually creates higher levels of racism, which is the opposite of what it's intended to do.

Those Brown People used to own your Native State, or did you miss that State History class? I assume your ancestors did not have such an issue otherwise they would have not moved there, you have the same choice by the way.

It doesn't matter. Throughout history wars have been fought and lands have exchanged hands. The U.S. won the war and they had no obligation to pay monies to Mexico for any land but they did. A treaty is a treaty anyway and must be honored by all who signed them. The past under no circumstances does not give any present day Mexicans the right to invade the U.S. illegally. The land is no longer theirs. We have internationally recognized borders today and the past is a done deal.

I grew up in California. It was a wonderful experience to have cultures around. The food alone...so many adventures. Funny how people can grow up in the same area and have such differing experiences *shrug*

Yeah none of that changes the fact that the United States invaded Mexico.

It's really rich to talk about America's "Legal Rights" when it just waltzed in there, in violation of Mexican sovereignty,
and TOOK a large swath of the Mexican nation at gunpoint, forcing them to sign an agreement via coercion.

I wonder if you'd feel the same if some group of Mexicans showed up armed at your house and forced you to sign away your home at gunpoint, and tossed you a fiver as "payment".

And since fatherless homes are a big part of the problems, the problem is fatherless homes, not being Black.

The Extent of Fatherlessness | National Center for Fathering

Furthermore, if the overwhelming majority of Blacks are thugs, explain this. 1.2 million violent crimes were committed in the USA. While a majority were committed by Black males, this still adds up to about about 3% of the Black male population committing violent crimes. So you are way off by many accounts.

And you still didn't answer my questions. Either answer my questions, or don't reply.
