Wasn't Texas part of Mexico? Aren't there like still Mexicans who were originally there or were they chased out or something?

in soviet russia, fence jumps over mexicans
They are doing it from the inside out. You know, like a parasite.
Pro. Unfortunately I know all to well, my wife is originally from Texas. First place I have ever seen where some places have the Mexican flag and the Texas flag flying higher than the United States flag. Here I am thinking we in the Carolinas were fucked up for flying the confederate battle flags on out state capitals and buildings lol.
Seeing that in TX put that in perspective big time.
why you be hatin?

least they could do was drive well so they dont get caught lol
found some related text at The Next 100 Years: A Forecast for the 21st Century | 1913 Intel. again, sorry for wall of text.
"In the middle of the century, other powers will emerge, countries that aren’t thought of as great powers today, but that I expect will become more powerful and assertive over the next few decades. Three stand out in particular. The first is Japan. It’s the second- largest economy in the world and the most vulnerable, being highly dependent on the importation of raw materials, since it has almost none of its own. With a history of militarism, Japan will not remain the marginal pacifistic power it has been. It cannot. Its own deep population problems and abhorrence of large- scale immigration will force it to look for new workers in other countries. Japan’s vulnerabilities, which I’ve written about in the past and which the Japanese have managed better than I’ve expected up until this point, in the end will force a shift in policy.
Then there is Turkey, currently the seventeenth-largest economy in the world. Historically, when a major Islamic empire has emerged, it has been dominated by the Turks. The Ottomans collapsed at the end of World war I, leaving modern Turkey in its wake. But Turkey is a stable platform in the midst of chaos. The Balkans, the Caucasus, and the Arab world to the south are all unstable. As Turkey’s power grows—and its economy and military are already the most powerful in the region—so will Turkish influence.
Finally there is Poland. Poland hasn’t been a great power since the sixteenth century. But it once was—and, I think, will be again. Two factors make this possible. First will be the decline of Germany. Its economy is large and still growing, but it has lost the dynamism it has had for two centuries. In addition, its population is going to fall dramatically in the next fifty years, further undermining its economic power. Second, as the Russians press on the Poles from the east, the Germans won’t have an appetite for a third war with Russia. The United States, however, will back Poland, providing it with massive economic and technical support. Wars—when your country isn’t destroyed—stimulate economic growth, and Poland will become the leading power in a coalition of states facing the Russians.
...What will be the more immediate result of a shrinking world population? Quite simply, in the first half of the century, the population bust will create a major labor shortage in advanced industrial countries. Today, developed countries see the problem as keeping immigrants out. Later in the first half of the twenty-first century, the problem will be persuading them to come. Countries will go so far as to pay people to move there. This will include the United States, which will be competing for increasingly scarce immigrants and will be doing everything it can to induce Mexicans to come to the United States—an ironic but inevitable shift.
These changes will lead to the final crisis of the twenty-first century. Mexico currently is the fifteenth-largest economy in the world. As the Europeans slip out, the Mexicans, like the Turks, will rise in the rankings until by the late twenty-first century they will be one of the major economic powers in the world. During the great migration north encouraged by the United States, the population balance in the old Mexican Cession (that is, the areas of the United States taken from Mexico in the nineteenth century) will shift dramatically until much of the region is predominantly Mexican."
Illegals means undocumented immigrants, right? The word illegals sounds highly pejorative. I take it people in Texas really hate undocumented immigrants?
Bullshit. They were often discriminated against and were the 2nd highest number of people lynched besides Blacks in Texas. The main perpetrators of this injustice where the then extremely racist and now revered Texas Rangers. Before you makes a claim like you did learn to read sources outside of what the Texas historians tell you.
Yes. Perhaps you should ask your Arian classmate the history of the US and hear about how Führer Taft and his mighty girth kicked Russia, New Zealand and East Africa's ass during the great Raptor war of 1574 using only a novelty replica of Old Glory, Hellen Keller's walking cane and an old weathered match book and FORCED the world to hand us Texas and Arizona out of sheer fear.
Yes, we are that bad ass. Ask your class mate, go ahead ask him. Always trust the blond hair and blue eyes, they are as pure as an angel fetus and shall tell you no lies my friend.
Father Brill Weave too can corroborate this glorious tale.
haha miz <3
I'm in agreement with the author about China not becoming as big of a threat as everyone likes to think. Their lack of environmental considerations in their goal of boosting up the country's economy has basically killed off all their worthwhile natural resources (e.g. most of the soil is dead irreparably because of bad fertilizer they used + pollution). So maybe in 30-40 years they will be a world super power but after that they will be completely dependent on trade to survive (or have to start a war with a country that does have resources).
my money is in Poland. It's like the nerdy kid that has been picked on at school all those years and finally brings in a gun and kills them all.
China and India are the greatest threats. Higher populations are the biggest threat to the US. The higher the population is the higher chance you get a diamond out of the trash. Those diamonds (good programmers, physicists, mathematicians, genius's in general, etc.) are what allow a country to progress these days. Not to mention these countries, with their extremely high populations will have to eventually wage war just like every other society with overpopulation has done in the past. They have to get rid of their excess males somehow and what better way than to send them to war to die?
"There are many who predict that China is the next challenger to the United States, not Russia. I don’t agree with that view for three reasons. First, when you look at a map of China closely, you see that it is really a very isolated country physically. With Siberia in the north, the Himalayas and jungles to the south, and most of China’s population in the eastern part of the country, the Chinese aren’t going to easily expand. Second, China has not been a major naval power for centuries, and building a navy requires a long time not only to build ships but to create well-trained and experienced sailors.
Third, there is a deeper reason for not worrying about China. China is inherently unstable. Whenever it opens its borders to the outside world, the coastal region becomes prosperous, but the vast majority of Chinese in the interior remain impoverished. This leads to tension, conflict, and instability. It also leads to economic decisions made for political reasons, resulting in inefficiency and corruption. This is not the first time that China has opened itself to foreign trade, and it will not be the last time that it becomes unstable as a result. Nor will it be the last time that a figure like Mao emerges to close the country off from the outside, equalize the wealth—or poverty—and begin the cycle anew. There are some who believe that the trends of the last thirty years will continue indefinitely. I believe the Chinese cycle will move to its next and inevitable phase in the coming decade. Far from being a challenger, China is a country the United States will be trying to bolster and hold together as a counterweight to the Russians. Current Chinese economic dynamism does not translate into long-term success."
i recently read about "World's highest drug levels entering India stream." News From The Associated Press i just don't see india as one of the greatest threats to the United States just because of higher population. quality > quantity. i'm sure all those drugs in the water isn't helping india's diamonds.
God, I just thought of japanese giant robot armies for the "science fiction warfare", and that makes me strangely aroused.
