This article is pretty aggressive. Why such naked aggression? 1) Because it's clear we're finally taking a stand and he's putting up his dukes, or 2) because he thinks Americans are on the ropes?

Unless God blighted Mexico, there's no reason Mexico can't be like the US saving the fact that it's inhabited by Mexicans. Mexicans make Mexico. When the Colonists came to what is now the US, they didn't become hunter-gatherers. They brought Anglo-Saxony with them. Mexicans bring Mexico to the US. Based on the results to the south, I see only decline in store for us down the road. That makes me eager to fight. But it will be a fight, as Navarrette articulates, because these people have nothing to go back to.

Just beneath the surface of all the Hispanic, legal and illegal, claims of rights in the US and claims of huge contributions to US history is the regrettable fact that all the Hispanic nations are huge failures. And if Hispanics can’t be part of the US, then most of them have no hope of any opportunity beyond a subsistence or very much lower economic class existence. We don’t hear much about what great contributions they’ve made to the nations where they’re large majorities.

But nothing is ever done to change the reasons for the chronic failures of those nations. And some about to make matters worse (again) by chasing the socialist solution once again. And our government is beyond negligent for allowing and even encouraging this situation for decades.

Maybe the situation is being turned around by the American citizens, but that’s by no means certain yet.

“Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15) gives all Americans the chance to gain insight into the nation’s largest minority”.....Maybe THEY should gain some insight into the nation THEY are living in and Celebrate American Heritage (October 16-September 14) by learning english!

As long as they're US citizens/legal residents, I agree.

Navarette is a friend of Michael Medved. Medved had this guy on his show during the controversy of Bank of America issueing credit cards to illegals.

Medved actually agrees with him on his immigration stance on all point. Could someone please tell me what Medved's agenda is. I can't understand it.

“In many cases, we were in the United States first.”

No way were they in the United States first, because there was no United States until the English settlers created it, not the few Mexicans living in the southwest.

How much conquistador blood, and how much Mexican Indian blood does Navarrette have? I think we might have some conquistador smart-mouthing us about who was here first. Is he descended from Cortez or his soldiers?

"gives all Americans the chance to gain insight into the nation's largest minority"

Thanks, but I'll pass. I've gotten all the insight I need from the militant marchers with their Mexican flags, the Mexican flag flying at UNM that an American hero took down recently, the militant loud mouths demanding this, demanding that and threatening things if they don't get what they want, La Raza causing at big stink in Kansas City, the crap Mayor Louis Barletta of Hazleton PA and his good citizens are having to endure, etc., etc., etc. No thanks, Navarette, I've gotten all the "insight" I want. Just like 9/11 and CAIR have provided a lot of insight about Islamists.

Why such naked aggression?

Because the mask is finally off and he's putting it in our faces - whatcha gonna do, Gringo? Got the cojones to push us out? If not, we gonna take what you have and push you out.

That's all it is. They don't make any bones about it.

They want the country. Now. If you don't resist, you're weak and they are strong, so it's theirs.

That's their way. Used to be ours. Will we give in?

Something your average Mexican can't seem to understand...

.....There are more than 44 million Hispanics in the United States....

THe only accurate statement in this piece. Why, O why is this "number" thing so difficult for our government and its precious "11 million illegals?"

If there are not 10 million illegals in California, alone,I'll by each of them a gd drink! In re the "44 million" the number by informed (i.e. non-governmental) sources is now over 65 Million, with at least 20 Million+ illegal.

The Latino component of our population will reach 30%. Just a question of time. Of course, down in old Aztlan, Latinos will be a majority; more than likely, an appreciable majority.

Think Navarrete is cocky now? Just wait a few more decades, pal. Our grandchildren will live in the northernmost outpost of Latin America. ?Hay algo aqui que no comprendes?
