There are lots of 'historical facts' that are not facts - it's what we have been fed for decades, centuries -
Again, even if it is true - there's nothing we can do to change it.
Destroying this country will not fix it - that's the point of all these 'historical facts' being put out now.
The references make it clear that a lot of Mexicans in the USA left for Mexico in the period. What I don't see is any evidence that any American citizen was deported to Mexico.
During the 1930s and into the 1940s, up to 2 million Mexicans and Mexican-Americans were deported or expelled from cities and towns across the U.S. and shipped to Mexico. ...Quote:

How many of the "Mexican Americans" were anchor babies and rightfully removed with their parents when the parents were deported?
That's certainly what it says but just saying something is not evidence unless the writer personally witnessed it.Quote:

Mexican-American family historians and other interested researchers occasionally contact the History Office in search of “Mexican Repatriation” records for individuals who left the U.S. during the Great Depression (1929-1939). Many of these researchers believe that the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) conducted a large-scale federally-controlled Mexican repatriation program during the Depression and thus expect USCIS to hold INS records documenting their ancestor’s exit from the U.S.
In most cases, however, no federal record exists for these departures. This is because, while an estimated 400,000 to 1 million Mexicans and Mexican-Americans left the US for Mexico during the Depression, relatively few of them were expelled under formal INS-directed removal proceedings. The majority returned to Mexico by their own decision or through officially voluntary – though often coercive – repatriation programs directed by state and local governments and charitable aid agencies.

We need to force them to self deport on their own. Cut off the freebies and anchor baby scam.
Best to sell out what you have and go on your own before you are caught and leave with nothing.
Go get on with your life on your soil and take your entire family with you. Use what schooling and job experience you have gained and apply it in your Country.
You want America? Go build it on YOUR soil.
The folks with a special interest in this could be bumping the actual numbers up or the government could be low-balling. Sort of difficult to really know for sure. Perhaps the true numbers are somewhere between those reported by the government and those claimed by other sources.
I think what this is really about is the misinterpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. This is another thing that needs to be confronted while Trump is in the White House.
Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution
I think that these people citing this history do so on the bogus claim that when non-citizens give birth in the US, then that makes them US citizens. And so the citizens claimed in this article are in fact Mexican citizens, not US citizens.
Correct, pkskyali. They're counting the offspring as the "citizens". They weren't considered "citizens" then. This considering children of illegal aliens "citizens" is a new thing that started a few decades ago.
