Why do the simpletons think the Southwestern US belongs to Mexico?
College students. You know who you are. Mexico held California for 22 years under a royal family and court, the USA has held it for 150 years. Mexico is a constutional government today, a totally different county from then. The Mexico that held California is extinct. Professors. Stop teaching your students that Arizona is racist for dealing with illegal immigation. Eat your refries, not paint with them. Which Mexico? The Monarchy or the current government?

Hope: In that case, Central Mexico belongs to the Aztecs. Give Germany to the Celts! Heck, let's bring back the Roman Empire! Or, even better than the Romans, let's restore the New Kingdom of Egypt. Give everything east of Turkey to the Mongols. Funny that you're also probably a person that wants to give the Arabs Palestine.

They have been taught "revisionist history" and have become too accustom to the "free stuff" we pay for in taxes. The illegals actually think they are entitled. It' a crazy world.

3 natural laws that govern the ownership of land. 1. You discover it for yourself 2. You buy it 3. You take it Mexicans might have discovered it , bought it, or took the South Western area at one point.. But we took it last and have successfully held on to it since. End of story. The Natural Laws of Land Ownership will always exist for eternity.

After Spain left California,the Rancheros, (like Sepulveda,Pico,Dominguez etc) petitioned every country to sponsor them(France,England etc) They didn't want to be part of Mexico.(of course they dont tell you that) They were elated when California became part of the U.S.) ..by the way, Gold was found in the hills outside of Los Angeles way before Sutters Mill,By a guy picking wild onions(strange but true) they kept it hush because the Rancheros didn't want people flocking to the area in droves.

It doesn't belong to Mexico. It has an affinity to Mexico. That's why we have place names like Gaviota and La Jolla and not Nantucket or Ipswich, why we had taco, tostada and taquito lunches in elementary school and why, whether they love it or hate it, everyone knows what mariachi music is;-)
