Mexico will eventually conquer Texas without firing a shot. You have to give the devil his due a brilliant long term strategy by the Raza Unida Party crowd.
Are we having a going away party? I'll bring the guacamole. Where are they going?
And please, tell us you're not racist when you call hispanics "the devil".
There's that habitual conflation reflex again. "Giving the devil his due" is a saying. Even using such a myopic view of what was said, the good bad ugly called Raza Unida devils, which they are:
I'm part Hispanic and I agree with what was said. Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta called them "wets" and created what they called a "wet line" at the border to beat the snot out of any Mexican daring to come across illegally. WOW, such RACISTS!
I'll be moving to Texas myself, so I guess I'll be balancing out at least one illegal. Just doing my part.

Nothing novel about minding your own business either. That’s a basic lesson most well-raised individuals learned during childhood.
Says a person living in the Carribean. You're being nosy in politics which do not concern you. Move to Texas (legally) and then you may speak.

Texas used to belong to Mexico before we the white men took it away from them. Hispanics have every right to immigrate to Texas; this land used to belong to them.

If you read other people's posts I would not have to do a repeat, but you didn't so here you go. Cska, is right. 9 Things You May Not Know About Texas
2. Six flags have flown over Texas.
"Native Americans have lived in Texas for thousands of years, but it did not become part of a country in the modern sense until Spanish explorers arrived in 1519. The Spanish then essentially ignored it until the 1680s, when the French established an outpost near Matagorda Bay. “That galvanized the Spaniards, [who said], ‘There might not be anything there, but damned if we’re going to let the French have it,’” McCaslin said. Although Mexico’s war of independence pushed out Spain in 1821, Texas did not remain a Mexican possession for long. It became its own country, called the Republic of Texas, from 1836 until it agreed to join the United States in 1845. Sixteen years later, it seceded along with 10 other states to form the Confederacy. The Civil War forced it back into the Union, where it has stayed ever since. The various flags that have flown over Texas—those of Spain, France, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the United States and the Confederacy—inspired the name of the Six Flags amusement park chain, which originated in Texas in 1961."
Immigration, there has to be a law, before it is deemed illegal.
U.S. Immigration Before 1965
"The United States experienced major waves of immigration during the colonial era, the first part of the 19th century and from the 1880s to 1920. Many immigrants came to America seeking greater economic opportunity, while some, such as the Pilgrims in the early 1600s, arrived in search of religious freedom. From the 17th to 19th centuries, hundreds of thousands of African slaves came to America against their will. The first significant federal legislation restricting immigration was the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act. Individual states regulated immigration prior to the 1892 opening of Ellis Island, the country’s first federal immigration station. New laws in 1965 ended the quota system that favored European immigrants, and today, the majority of the country’s immigrants hail from Asia and Latin America."

Since no one ever .... when are you leaving for your ancestors home country? Or are you a mutt with more than one bloodline from various countries? That would make it tough to decide what country to move to. Just saying and seriously concerned about the public government Education in the u.s.
Funny little thing about Texas. Texas has one of the lowest voter participation rates in the nation. If more people voted, the Republican Party would get fewer votes in Texas. Maybe the GOP should ask itself how it can get more African-Americans and Hispanics to vote for them. And if the only retort you can come up with is "free stuff", then you're part of the problem.
