Once the Mexicans get the southwest back, the precedent will be set for the indian tribe that can dig up the oldest artifacts in that region to demand it be given back to them. Let’s just call a crock a crock. Mexico lost, we won. Screw them.

The Mexicans have gall if nothing else in their spurious claim to the US Southwest and California. Those territories were occupied by numerous American Indian tribes including: Comanche, Apache, Ute, Navajo, Hopi, and many others. I understand those tribes don’t think much of the Mexican claims of an ancient homeland.

They were so easily defeated in the Mexican war because they had so few Mexicans living in the vast territories.
