I'm a bit confused. The Brits claimed this country or territory's for the King, but they lost the war. They don't have any rights to the country anymore. The Spanish and Mexicans claimed this country or territory's. They lost the war. Doesn't it make sense they don't have any rights here, either? An illegal alien in this country is an ilegal alien no matter what country they're from. The difference seems to me, is that the countries of Europe have improved their lot at home since the settling of America. Europe is thriving. Mexico on the other hand, doesn't seem to have done too much to improve it's homeland or the lot of its people. Sorry, but I find it outrageous to expect this country to show any more favoritism to someone of Latin descent than someone of any other descent. I will voice the argument this is no longer your country. Whether you lost it fairly or were cheated, you lost it. Instead of expending all your energy here, why not try to bring Mexico up to a standard of living that would make a person proud to be from Mexico? And a place tourists would love to visit and spend money. I've been to Mexico, great natural beauty.
