I know! Its ironic that foreigners come here and complain about foreigners coming here.
What is really unfair is that most Mexicans who live here are genetically descended from the Maya, Mexica (Aztecs), Zapotec, and Mixtec. So the native population of North America. Not foreigners.

Where else do you hear Mixtec & Quechua on the same train? Smell chaufa & champurrado on the same block? See a Dominican barber give a Venezuelan kid a fade, a life lesson, & a new accent in one visit?
