LOL.

I live In Texas. This is the reality, The Americans can keep going to live in Mexico, but the Mexicans are still going to keep coming the border trying to make a life in America. I know this because our governor is angry and complaining that the president is not giving enough assistance to Texas to help cope with all of those people. His solution is to put them in a bus and send them to Washington., D.C. For real! That's what he's doing! He is also sending some of them to New York City, because New York is what's called a "sanctuary city".
I have empathy and sympathy for the Mexicans. How I see it, Texas actually used to be a part of Mexico. But there was a war and Texas got their independence and freedom. Hey! If your family happened to end up in Mexico after the war instead of in Texas, is that your fault? You're just choosing sides, that's all.
Also, for the record, it's not just Mexicans that are coming across the border. There are a lot of people coming through Mexico from Central America and South America. But since they all speak Spanish and look like, they're all being called Mexican.
