    Wait. I thought they didn’t want foreigners coming into the US, doesn’t this defeat the purpose of keeping them out?

      History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.

      There was a war in the 1800s that USA had with Mexico. We beat them so bad that they surrendered all of Mexico to us.

      In the end it was decided not to accept the deal, as it would just create a new set of problems with needing to legalize the citizenry of ALL former Mexicans.

      I wonder what the history books can tell us about what we did with the people that were here before us …

      Ohh… Ohh my…
