[Nocturno]

What would Hernán Cortés do if he were here today? What exactly would this kind man do when he heard these illegal aliens referring to themselves as Hispanic, or Spanish, or from Spain. Would this man who killed every Mayan, Aztec, or indigenous central American stand side by side with todays Mexicans? That's all I'm asking, what would he do?

For one thing, he did not kill “every Mayan, Aztec, or indigenous central American.” In fact, he would not have conquered Mexico if the Tlaxcaltecas had not been his allies.

You want a bad assed Spaniard, Google Don Juan Onate.

.
At the core of his force were six (and only six) mounted men who, despite their small number were a huge advantage. He had some cannon which influenced the outcome in many of the major actions. His infantry force, while more than six, was also small.

But, the vast bulk of his army, numerically, consisted of local nations who hated the Aztecs.

[Clemenza]

Uh, you have your history wrong. Most Mexicans today are descendants of the Indians and the Europeans, with the Indian share of the gene pool predominating in central and southern Mexico. 30% of the population still speaks Indian languages.

The very term "La Raza" comes from "La Raza Cosmica" (The Cosmic Race) coined by the Mexican sociologist Jose Vasconcellos. It refers to the fact that, per Vasconcellos, the Mexican race possesses the best qualities of both the Indian and the European.

As for Cortes himself, he took an Aztec princess as his mistress and fathered children with her.

[Psalm 144]

In point of fact, Cortez was the mojado.
