That's the same question George Custer asked Crazy Horse at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Crazy Horse replied that he had a different solution in mind.

And the right man won there too.

Not to go off track on a religious discussion but how do you know that your thoughts conform with gods? I can accept that you are conforming to the dogma of certain religious cults but how do you know that these are in agreement with god.

The identity of the right man depends on one's perspective. Crazy Horse defended his way of life against invaders.

What's the difference between the white invaders of the 19th century and the mexican invaders of the 21st century from the perspective of people seeing their way of life destroyed?

The invaders of the 19th century have destroyed their own way of life through decadence, greed and malice. Stop trying to blame the Mexicans for your own failings.

I'm not blaming the mexicans for acting like 19th century whites. Nor do I blame whites for acting like 19th century Indians.

Btw, Canada is no less decadent than America. The resemblance of the Canadian and American peoples is remarkable.

Seems to me that the mexicans are doing exactly what millions on others have done before them. Coming to America in search of a better life. You got your little corner lot in paradise and now you want to slam the door in the faces of those that come after you.

You got that part right. Not sure if I understand your reference in the first paragraph.

Does any country have the right to control its borders against the citizens of other countries simply coming in and doing whatever they want? Would that work for Canada?

What I'm saying is pretty straight forward. Crazy Horse and Tecumseh saw no need to accomodate white invaders. I see no need to accommodate mexican and central american illegals. As far as I'm concerned the illegals should keep moving north until they reach Canada where they would be welcome. They would be welcome right?

Was it not Alabama or Arkansas or one of those A states that ran off all the wet backs and then found they could find no one to harvest their crops? If it wasn't for illegal aliens, the US economy would collapse. Who would the rich get to clean their pools or cook their meals and raise their kids. Please, think of the well being of the rich.

It may have been Arizona.

It would be better if the farms went out of business.

America has lots of ignorant and impoverished people without having any need to import them from mexico and central america. America doesn't need low skill people. It has all it needs. The low skill mexicans and central americans bring nothing to the table. They should move to Canada where they would be welcomed with open arms by all Canadians. Haha.

What would you eat then? Twinkies? Oh yah, they went out of business too.
They would eat food imported from mexico and central america.

Where were all those unskilled Americans when the crops needed harvesting? At least the Mexicans are willing to do grunt labour when Americans don't seem to be. I think they bring a lot to the American table, mostly food.

You may have hit the nail on the head as far as one of economic problems in Canada today is concerned. Some Canadians just will NOT work at jobs other ethnicities are eager to work at.

Ethnicity has nothing to do with it.

I think they need to do more than that. The American people are now realizing whay happened in 2007-08 wasn't a collapse of our economy. It was a precision engineered event and many Republicans and their very wealthy supporters were the architects of this tragic swindle. It was so smooth that even the return of Paulson to Goldman Sachs (a firm he retired from to "Serve his Nation") went back to work there and received a $20 million dollar bonus using the funds the Democrats were duped into allowing to occur. It may be a century before the monied part of the Republicans will ever gain a primary public office again. They simply are not trusted by the majority of the US citizens. Most in California were defeated in the last election.
