I live near San Antonio. Before that Austin. Before that Houston. I've spent time in Mexico and I've worked side by side with Mexicans, along with many other Nationals, in many other parts of the World.
I'm pretty well up on how the Mexicans fought side by side with the Texians for independence. They did get seriously screwed. Same thing happened in California. Right now I live amongst a bunch of Canary Islanders that have been here since the Spanish Land Grants.
My issue is with our hypocritical and corrupt political system. Most of the new arrivals are indigenous Mesoamerican Indians from far south Mexico and Central America. They had nothing to do with the settlement of Texas.
