Come and Take It
I was watching Tucker Carlson tonight on Fox. His guest was Jonathan Harris, a Democrat operative. (Note that Fox shows always have a guest on with a differing opinion, unlike CNN or MSNBC.) Harris claimed that in Texas, for instance, "indigenous peoples" now attempting to cross the border from Mexico had the right to be in the state because they had once lived here. Carlson didn't bring this point up, as he should have, but... Texans once fought a war to gain sovereignty over the territory that was once Mexico's. And we won. (Was the Mexican government once stupid enough to allow Anglo settlers in to their territory? Sure. The Anglos also didn't convert to Catholicism, as they'd promised, either. Sorry. Not sorry.) Perhaps the US government should take this as a lesson, as Trump is now doing (and as both Merkel and the Romans should have done, come to think of it): Don't allow an influx of aliens into your territory, or they might try to take it over.
