Why are Mexicans still implying there is no border & we illegally obtained their land & they want it back?

Protestors gathered Saturday in Chicano Park to bring attention to their cause of comprehensive immigration reform.

A handful of the protestors told local TV station Channel 10 (www.kgtv.com) that they do not believe a border should even exist between the United States and Mexico.

One member of the group Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán (MEChA), a student organization, told the local ABC affiliate that the southwestern states of California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas were illegally captured from Mexico in the war that ran from 1846 to 1848, and that the five states should return as part of Mexico. The land became a portion of the United States after the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.

In the meantime, MEChA members want to see the end of raids by immigrations and customs agents and for the border to be "de-militarized."

Because they don't want to admit that they are doing anything wrong.
Instead of going through the NORMAL and LEGAL process like MILLIONS of other immigrants who "wanted a better life" they want to play the blame game and call everyone that is against them racist.

If we gave them all those states, after a few years of turning it into a hell hole, they'd still try to illegally cross over the new border. My brother has lived in Mexico for 20 years with his Mexican wife and whenever someone talks about that to him, he asks them what those states would be like if they were a part of Mexico. That shuts them right up.

And btw, look up how Mexico treats its own illegal aliens from Central and South America. People who illegally cross over the border into Mexico can expect to be robbed, raped, and murdered.

LoL Mexicans are truly confused on this issue. Lets give them the benefit of a doubt that yes, we did illegally obtain the land California, Arizona, Texas, etc...But they still rather live in under the US government than the Mexican government. Hence the reason why they are coming over here. Sheesh, if we gave the MExicans California, Nevada, Arizona etc back then they would just want to live in Idaho, Oklahoma, and Colorado. It makes no sense.

see greasy tony this is exactly why 80% of the citizens of the united states want illegal immigrants deported along with there anchor,s, and to think a student organization from mexico can protest here .chicano park wow..

Simple they lack intelligence.Most of them don't even know who their father is so how can we expect for them to understand history.

Because they are slow thinkers.

Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!

Well remember what Hitler believed, if you repeat the lie often enough people will start to believe it.

They don't know the true History. It's called being ignorant, the facts are out there they choose not to educate themselves about the matter.

Because they are uneducated and do not know the history of their own country. Also, they are trying to justify ruining their own country and then sneaking into ours and doing the same here.

its not called los Angele's for nothing.

Yeah the Mexicans and South AMericans have done SO WELL for themselves. And look how well CA, TX, AZ, NV and N MX are doing with huge illegal alien populations.
No matter how far we move the border back they will keep destroying and advancing.
Of course, these illegals think removing the border is a great idea.
They can rape and pillage to their hearts content, with impugnity.
It's envy that is causing this invasion. They are using reclaimation as an excuse to cover up their greed and envy. What other reason would there be for coming here and giving birth every 1 1/2 years and immediately applying for welfare after each birth.

But they really do not want Mexico to own the land either.
