Marchers say gringos, not illegals, have to go

Activists turn tables, offer no amnesty for 'non-indigenous' on 'our continent'

While debates about guest-worker programs for illegal aliens take place in the corridors of power, in the streets of America's big cities no amnesty is being offered by activists calling for the expulsion of most U.S. citizens from their own country.

While politicians debate the fate of some 12 million people residing in the U.S. illegally, the Mexica Movement, one of the organizers of the mass protest in Los Angeles this week, has already decided it is the "non-indigenous," white, English-speaking U.S. citizens of European descent who have to leave what they call "our continent."

The pictures and captions tell the story.

    * "This is our continent, not yours!" exclaimed one banner.

    * "We are indigenous! The only owners of this continent!" said another.

    * "If you think I'm illegal because I'm a Mexican, learn the true history, because I'm in my homeland," read another sign.

"One of the more negative parts of the march was when American flags were passed out to make sure the marchers were looked on as part of 'America,'" said the group's commentary on the L.A. rally.

Both Rep. James Sensebrenner, R-Wis., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a proponent of tougher border security, and California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger were caricatured as Nazis by the group on its posters and banners.

The group insists the indigenous people of the continent were the victims of genocide – a campaign of extermination that killed, according to one citation, 95 percent of their population, or 33 million people. Another citation on the same website claims the toll was 70 million to 100 million.

Brother, this is why, the fences need to be put into place. Living in one of the states where this is all happening. Theres been alot of term-oil going on, here in Arizona. Seems that some Mexicans forget that Santa Anna lost the war. He later rebelled against the government, gained considerable backing. By 1833, he was elevated to president of Mexico in a democratic election. He soon determined, however, that Mexico was not ready for democracy and pronounced himself dictator.

Santa Anna was remembered as a particularly ruthless opponent by the Texans. Despite this, he was allowed to return to Mexico after his capture at the Battle of San Jacinto. After his return to Mexico, Santa Anna participated in the Mexican War and in 1853 sold territory to the United States including that area known as the Gadsden Purchase. He was later exiled from Mexico, but allowed to return a few years before his death in 1876.

Therefore by the fact Santa Anna sold to the US, Gadsden Purchase, Southern California, Arizona, and New Mexico, belong to the United States. Seems that these few Mexicans forget that fact....

They don't want to remember such things. Like many people today they want things handed to them on a silver platter. They don't stop to think that if that land did belong to Mexico they would still have it just as tough here as they do in Mexico.
