Did you not read my post? A huge part of it is our fault, that's such a stupid attitude. Americans shouldn't just say "Oh its Mexico's problem" its very much casued by the US and I'm sure if the Mexican government had the ability to eliminate poverty in their country they would do it in a heartbeat but they don't. They aren't able to offer low interest loans or create good clean factories with decent wages, they aren't torturing their people and putting them in that situation for fun. This thread is riddled with ignorance.

Lovely, good to see you're proud to run around spitting out idiotic statements with no factual backing or even thought behind them whatsoever.

we have enough problems

I thought illegal immigrants aren't in the system therefore the government doesn't actually spend any money on them...*unsure*
Are you saying all or most illegal immigrants are lazy and live off the state somehow? I'm really rather ignorant here so don't take this the wrong way, I really want to know...

I think I'll call it what my history teacher with his masters calls it. mmk.

The issue had more to do with congressional votes than if slaves actually lived in Texas.


when you say 'we' what exactly are you refering to? and call it what you will,...i know what it is

as for texas joining the union, i'm not denying that slave votes might have had a hand in the vote,....but the issue of texas's independence happened about a decade before we even considered joining the union,...so to say that had it not been for slaves we would have automatically been a 'state' is preposterous

immigrants work like 10 times harder than any american citizen. they take the jobs we don't want, and they aren't paid well either. We should at least respect that if not anything else
