once again american imperialism is affecting mexico, the "free trade" treaty which america has mexico stuck in is destroying peasent farmers and giving profit to big american corporations. Truely immoral and sick.

si el presidente Diaz conocia bien las mañas del gobierno de gringo por eso los tenia bien vigilados con espias en cada embajada y consulado, lastima que aquellos que decian amar a mexico y quisieron cambiar las formas del poder en el pais, a los primeros que se vendieron fueron a los gringos, por eso a mi personal parecer en nuestra historia ha habido muchos personajes ilustres pero muy pocos heroes con la pureza de un zapata que no se vendio nunca ni a los gingos ni a los comunistas

el porcentaje no se puede medir por una razon, por que la poblacion pocas veces acudia al registro civil, y los hijos muchas de las veces nada mas con ir a la iglesia bastaba, por eso no puedes medir porcentajes, te puedo decir que yo llevo algo de irlandes, pero tambien de polaco, algo de español, y mucho de mexicano de sangre pura, y que de toda esa sangre me siento orgulloso, que solo asimilando lo que eres logras saber que deseas.

Mimereader you racist pieces of shit only associate yourself with Irish when it suits you. Throughout history racist English and Americans considered Irish an inferior race and now the cunts wanna be like us. Well Irish are nothing like you racist pricks. We might look like Americans but we have way more in common with Mexicans.
