Okay. Thanks for the heads up.



It's coming folks. Whether you believe it or not.





I grew up with Mexicans in Tucson and worked in the mines with them. Whether wetbacks or the “texican” type, there were mostly good folks and easy to work with.

Having said that, they were quite adept at quickly figuring out if you were some silly guilt ridden apologetic liberal that could be taken advantage of or just some ornery sob that should be left alone.

Had six young ones in Trinidad mistake me for one of the former. Had one of my daughters with me at time..... took them about three seconds to make the adjustment and back off. Smart young ones.

Well said Ron! I know where you are coming from.

THis!!! All my neighbors here regardless of race or place of birth know we’d help em best we could! And trust me, I’m outnumbered. It’s outsiders of any race or creed I’d worry about first.

i still get a kick of knowing some of your ancestery quoting poetry, liking fine cigars, bad taste in beer, but like good liqqors and fine weapons, i don't think your neighbors would bother you anyway.
the irony in my pod being danish/german/croat/slav is i can pass for mexican, but the mexicans in my pod could pass for high end europoeans.

my sister was croat/polish jew/slavic, hispanic, mexican pima indian, half sister.
one of her sons looks like a german bier meister, from his father, the other one looks and has the habits of geronimo.
i am at heart having been raised in it, much more comfortable in general in the mexican culture than the anglo in some ways.
but i also reconize the potential, geez, just need to go along the border a little bit.
we shut down the u.s./mexican border. which screws up going to al condones for medicine. huge money maker on the mexican side, or was. wonder what those people are gonna do now.
i just wish i had made a run last month when i was thinking about it.

Rodger,

Around here we have a name for people like that.

We call them tax paying conservatives

The Mexicans I know who own businesses here for years, feel no different than us White Faces.

They hate illegals for the same financial reasons, plus the additional negative attention they bring on them who work, employ others and pay taxes.

No different than us hating on white trash who ride the .give me everything system.

Around here, the Hispanic Texans that have been here all along despise illegals.

They don't mind telling you, either. smile

Used to like running a Remington 10 gauge for ducks over deeks with friends. Gave buds the opening salvo on legs down, wings set birds...Then I’d clean up the escapees.

Figure 10g would get a fella another 35 yards of hard hitting B.B. on retards wanting to fill a backpack with my supplies.

Over several sections of land it is hard to keep an eye on all of it. Spending a lot of time outdoors right now.

that is already happening here. south of prescott found a cow shot, and j ust the back straps hacked off. left the rest of the cow to rot.
hate to throw it in the mexican camp, but found a black angus bleeding out on a hiking trail few years ago. it was barely alive. told my wife we needed to get out of there. at the start of the trail was a mexican beer bust. had to be connected.

Kind of surprised that the "opportunist" segment of society has been so quiet thus far.
