Answer 5

I have an idea, learn your history before you attempt to get people to fall into your senseless Amnesty rhetoric.

Below you will se a link about history of wars in the United States. Follow the link and get a little knowledge. We gained possession of the area that you speak of during the Mexican -American War.

Check it out and stop with the Amnesty cries. Illegal is Illegal.
