    Many of the land that was owned by Spanish land grants was stolen by White American land grabbers. There is written history that land was taken because of unpaid land taxes that were imposed and the people were not personally notified. These stories are told of the tax notices being publicly posted but not where they were easily visible they were posted on back of enterance doors so no one unless someone told them could see the notice. Then assassins were hired as Texas Rangers to kill and remove the people from their land. I'm not saying all Texas Rangers were part of this killing parties. These Assassin Rangers were more commonly appointed along the Mexican American border. If this had happened to someone in the northern or eastern part of the US there would be more concern and sympathy for people of White Euro ancestry. These are my thoughts and I believe these people who had land grants should be compensated for the injustice done to their families.

    The government of the people, by the people and for the people, is a government of White Europeans. These illegal, undocumented foreigners invaded our homeland and continue to occupy it in the face of all present day liberation and regained autonomy of many former colonies of old empires. It rounds up our brethren like cattle, breaks up families and homes, and deports native dwellers of their land. Ours is the only community so treated in the United States-- even after we have proven to be the most "loyal subjects" to a foreign invader, including giving up our lives to unjust inhuman foreign wars. There is an ugly homeland apartheid in America in non-compliance with international laws of peace and justice.
