1. Excuse me?
Imagine if we had INVADED Iraq...washed their dishes, picked their onions and did everything in their country for less money than they could do it for while they spat on us and named their cities AMERICAN sounding names?


Sorry...the CORE of your post sounded bigoted to me.

2. Again? Maybe if they bring back pancho villa from the grave
using some voodoo or something. I'd pay to see that. I'd like to buy him a drink.

7. here's my take on the Hispanic "infiltration"
You know, so many Hispanics I see actually have a lot of Native American in them (and African-American as well) I lived for 7 years in a majority Hispanic community. I actually drive 60 miles round trip to visit an Hispanic woman-owned boutique to get my hair done because I really like the lady who does my hair. When I go there I am very much accepted, just as the original Native American people welcomed the Europeans.

Don't be so sure this is "your country". These people have had ancestors in this continent for thousands of years.

11. you're right, o/c
Edited on Sat Nov-20-04 07:14 PM by jukes
no great apes in the americas for them to be descended from. but just to quibble, 10,000 years is a bit of residency, and it's pretty clear we didn't commit genocide when we got here.

not aware of the new dig, i'll google it up. tx for the tip!
