  • @FuzzyCigarDude <-- you're a real charmer yourself,bitch. How white are you? You sure you don't have some redskin in your back ground? Europeans probably sent your predecessors here as indentured servants. The ultimate "bitch". Europeans didn't build that much; they killed a lot. The American Colonists had some mixed blood in the 200 years before they declared independence. We are all people. Mexicans are a mix of WHITE PEOPLE and NATIVES. Spanish is a European Language like ENGLISH is.

  • This is sad when people go back to their country. This is nice to go to the us to live a better life. sad

  • We are all Americans. When we unite we cannot be subjugated. When we are divided, those who hate our votes and voices outwit the power of our ballot box. Thise who don't play fair end up "playing" the other 99.8% of us. About this video, 12.5% of my DNA wants to point out that there were people already in America. These tribes were here for 25 thousand years already. To the Mexicans that Arizona dishonors: you are descended of the ORIGINAL "citizens" of this hemisphere. I honor you.
