Yes indeed. But you didn''t stress that when someone quotes history, they should know what they are talking about.

If you clowns want to really give the land in question back to its orginal natives then you would have to give it back to the Siberians. Remember the Siberian land bridge to what we call Alaska now. This yapping about who owns the land is just so much BS. Get over it, we, the United States owns it by right of being on it.

"Congress has authorized $1.2 billion to build 700 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border. The project includes about 330 miles of so-called virtual fence - a network of cameras, high-tech sensors, radar and other technology. The remaining sections, primarily in urban areas are expected to have an actual fence. About 70 miles of actual fence is planned in South Texas." - Put in terms for the general public $1,200,000,000/700miles/5280feet= $324.68 per foot.

My understanding of texass was that it was purchased from Santa Ana for so many millions of dollars of which the mexican government KEPT the money but said that Santa Ana was NOT authorized to "sell" texass to the United States. As has been stated many MANY times before, illegals DO NOT want all the lands back because IF all the territories were returned, all the freebies they get as illegals would cease. The land was first occupied by Native Americans in which mexicans came and stole it from them. If anything at all, mexico OWES the Native Americans who resided there back rent and restitution.

according to history, we BOUGHT the Louisiana Purchase from Russia, so complain to them. I''''m pretty sure that acquisition is responsible for most of the west in the United States.

You dufus. America bought the Louisiana purchase from France, Napoleon Bonaparte to be exact. American bought Alaska from Russia. Please stop posting until you get some intelligence. This is scary.

Just for the record, it''s the French we got the land from. And Texas was not part of it.

We purchased Alaska from the Russians.

You are 100% right and don%u2019t forget that the U.S. stole the whole west from Mexico. White Texans were the first illegal%u2019s aliens.

Hummmmmmmm, just curious, you seem to know history so well. Who did the Mexicans steal the west from??

[jusdane]

castile1 - FYI, Mexico never owed the entire west, and according to history, we BOUGHT the Louisiana Purchase from Russia, so complain to them. I''m pretty sure that acquisition is responsible for most of the west in the United States.

I honestly believe the only way to cure this "invasion" of illegal Aliens, this side of land mines, is to get the Mexican government to stop steeling from the poor and put their people to work in their own country.
