Mind telling us how your precious Mexicans acquired the Southwestern US in the first place? I'll bet you think they bought it, fair and square, from the Spanish.
History lesson for clueless progressives and Liberal Hobbit Dancers.......
California was originally populated by Indians, not Mexicans. The original Indian inhabitants were killed and/or driven out by the later-arriving Indians.
The Spanish came, and killed, enslaved, or drove out those Indians, and merrily settled down on "their" property.
By and by, the Mexicans got tired of Spanish rule and revolted, and in 1821, Spain recognized Mexican independence; whereupon the Mexicans settled down in "their" country that they had just acquired from Spain in the same manner that Spain acquired it from the Indians, who in turn had acquired "their" land in the same way.
In 1836, Texas declared independence from Mexico, due to the excesses of Santa Anna. (If you thought the Alamo was bad, you should have seen what that bastard did in Mexico.)
After Texas gained it's independence from Mexico, (by force of arms, just like everything else had been accomplished,) Texas, in 1846, decided to become part of the US. Mexico invaded Texas, and got it's ass kicked, losing the Southwest and California the same way they gained it; by force of arms.
I hope this reality check plugs some of the holes in your Liberal Hobbit Dancer view of history.

Top 4 states with highest opioid use

A new study says 41 of the 50 cities with the highest prevalence of opioid use are in four states in one U.S. region.

Those states are Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia and Arkansas – all in the southeast, according to the report, A Nation in Pain, from mail-order pharmacy Express Scripts.
Higher opioid use in less populated southern cities could be the result of a variety of factors, including:
prevalence of chronic and debilitating diseases that impact the southern region of the country, including obesity and diabetes which often have associated pain that may require opioid treatment, and
less access to clinical care, particularly specialists – opioids may be prescribed more frequently when there are limited care alternatives.
Of the 25 cities with the highest prevalence of longer-term opioid use, 24 have populations below 100,000.
The largest U.S. cities have opioid rates below the national average. However, they have a higher proportion of users taking very high doses of these drugs.
A report earlier this year from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed similar results. In the CDC’s report, the top 5 states for painkiller prescriptions per 100 people in 2012 were Alabama, Tennessee, West Virginia, Kentucky and Oklahoma.

Great, air and water clean and the streets are a cesspool. Don't tell me they aren't either. I have friends there that say the homeless and immigration problem is out of control. Your debt is going to explode because your tax base is leaving. 65,000 people to Texas this year alone with thousands of businesses. You can spin this any way you want but California is on it's way to becoming a fiscal disaster. Your finances are so poor that a state run by liberal Democrats couldn't pass single payer because of the expense.

There is no evidence I've seen that later arriving peoples killed of drove out the Aborigines
Mexico drove out the Spanish colonist out Just as we drove out the English Colonist out. Spain took it from the Native inhabitants and Mexico inherited it in their revolution. The natives had settled the land and occupied it for thousands of years with early people joined by later waves. Yes Mexico acquired California by a war for independence just as America acquired Native American occupied land. California has always had a large Mexican population most of the towns, cities, and, sites of interest have Spanish names. San Francisco bay was discovered overland bay Spanish explorer's in 1769 when the colonist along the eastern sea board were fighting their war of independence from England
