Do you think that the U.S Government owe us Mexican Reparation for the land they stole from us?
Find answers to your legal question.





Do you think that the U.S Government owe us Mexican Reparation for the land they stole from us?

Should the Government give us back California and texas so that we will not have a border issue. I don't want to go to war with america but we mexicans are tired of this.

I hope this don't lead to war because mexico has the best army in the world. I have many american friends and I don't want to see them hurt.

You are right but remember Americans are selfish people.

Get your facts straight,I'll admit,Texas was a mistake on the Mexican Govt.letting in so many Americans,(much like the Mexicans are trying to do to us at the moment)California on the other hand,was bought and paid for,as was the Gila bend treaty for Arizona .The Spaniards all but left Mexico and they needed financing to keep their lands,along with populace.This is how they lost Texas,trying to keep it populated.California ranch owners,like Pico and Figueroa,Dominguez offered France,England to make them part of their territory because they knew Mexico could not support them and their needs.They were happy when the US offered to buy the land,and since Mexico couldnt pay the loans for the somewhat 50 years they had been left from Spain,they took the trade for the loans,and yes we US citizens are tired of this too!

Texas got its independance from Mexico before it ever joined the Union. As for the other land we paid money and forgave debts and signed a treaty. And THEN we made it different from what is south of the border.

You don't get to be paid twice because we made it worth more, no.

DA... the land wasn't stolen... we took it from a bunch of incompetent and corrupt solders that couldn't defend it. I'd suggest that you *fix* the incompetence and corruption that still infest Mexico before you set your sights on gathering any more territory.

Direct your anger towards Spain for colonizing you in the first place.


♥austingirl♥
Mexicans are a product of subjugation/mating of native americans by the Spaniards...you aren't pure "Native" either, so, what exactly are you owed? Mexico has plenty of natural resources including large oil reserves...why do so many still live in poverty? Perhaps you should think of your own revolution? Or would you rather whine that another country owes you?!


Shane
Mexico lost the war and the USA bought them off. Your people signed the peace treaty, so get over it. We are deporting your illegal alien Reconquistadors, althoug that will stop if a Dimocrat is elected president.

Mexico has the best military in the world? You are not supposed to use the cocaine man, only sell it to us gringos!


jrie67
Hahahahaha, If Mexico ever had a strong army in the last 100 years, then you would be speaking German or at the bottom of the ash heap in Hitler's ovens.

No, because the U.S. Government (its citizens) has more than made up for any so-called "stolen land" by giving the Mexican ILLEGALS free health care, housing, food stamps, and social services here in the Land of Milk and Honey.

Uh, WE WON IT, during war...and then we even went to the extent of paying MEXICO for the land a few years later. If you have a beef with "Losing" the land, talk to MEXICO, not the US.

Absolutely, if you were living there at the time - of course, you'd have to give up your US Citizenship and any benefits.

Since you weren't, and the people who were living there became US Citizens, then no.


sundevilcajun
First of all you are a fruad. Secondly, we bought that land from Mexico. Finally if Mexico actually tried anything We would take Baja California and make it the 51st state!


cdjack
Actually, with all the illegal aliens invading our country we will soon invade Mexico, and take it over for ourselves. America will own the whole place. We will make Mexico a nice place to live and to retire. Bring jobs and housing. Kick out your corrupt government and govern your country the way it should be governed. You will soon be another state of the United States. The rest of the corrupt countries south of our border will be next.

THey paid the reparations in 1848, 15 million dollars at the time. Read the Treaty of Guadaulupe Hidalgo.

Stole? I think you need to pick up a history book cause you sound like a fool. Mexico fought a war and lost. That is the way things work. Educate yourself. Stupid and ignornat is no way to go through life, son.

As far as a war...keep dreaming. The boy scouts could handle your alleged military.

The best part is, Mexico can't even handle the cesspool it has now. What is it going to do with more land? Do you really think Texas and California would look the way they do today if Mexico had them for the past 100 years? That all happened becuase the land is do wonderful? Both states would look like the rest of mexico...a giant dump aside from a few tourist areas that are nice because they are run by....drum roll...AMERICANS and AMERICAN COMPANIES!


Sweetharttt
LOL. Yeah, right, reparations....

Don't kid yourself, your arses would be toast rather quickly should the U. S. of A. go to war with you lazy cesspool rats.
