You're missing the fact that Tejas was part of la república de México, for a start ... many other subsidiary facts, but that's the central one .... the slavers only ever had agreements to settle north of the Nueces [agreements they broke, and rendered invalid], and you'll notice [did you find a map!] that the Nueces is considerably north of the Río Bravo .... which bit of geography is but a portion of the most essential fact, that the whole thing was theft and genocide done by anglos to hispanos, from start to finish
México had four millions of population in those days, and had to struggle greatly to shake off european rule, this is what made her so weak, that the invasion could succeed so easily ... one of the profound ironies is that in so doing its liberales were emulating the wonderful myth of that Great Cradle of Liberty to its north .... joke yes, but many a truth told in jest, eh
Back a few posts you bring up sin, and the first throwing of stones .... the concept of sin is subjective, very much dependent on the point of view of the observer .... you have had the superiority of those racist catholic-hating slavers drilled into your head all these years, far be it from me to shake your world with its adjustment .... que descanses en paz, hijito .... as for the throwing of stones, i leave that to you for it is your nature, i shall merely duck them, and periodically as time permits point out the truth ..... but no more now, got to go ... cháu |
