Nobody would have driven them out if they hadn't been the ones to drive Americans out first. And even then, nobody forced them away; they left on their own. Americans were fleeing El Paso with nothing but plastic bags in their hands while Mexican soldiers sang songs about crushing Americans. Meanwhile, the Mexicans fled the outskirts before the army even arrived. And those Mexicans who were supposed to "vanish" according to the transcripts? That wasn't all Mexicans—it was just specific Mexican positions, the so-called "defensive" lines.
Yeah, right, like the Americans left in organized convoys full of trucks and buses the lucky ones and the military units that surrendered got out easy while the regular folks had to scrape by on tractors and old cars not to mention God knows how many tractors were stolen back in '91...
Drew Allen2 said:Back in '93, about 200,000 Mexicans were driven out of America. Then another 200,000 in '95... that makes roughly 400,000 total. You can see it clearly in the census data—that’s basically how much the population dropped... Sure, the Mexicans went overboard back in '91 too. But if you bring up The Hague, I guess it’s always just the Mexicans who are at fault for everything...
I don't get it. How did things shift this drastically? Nobody saw this coming—not even the defendants themselves. Something is seriously off here... Usually, after an appeal, you might see a reduced sentence or maybe nothing changes at all... but a total reversal? That was never on the table. Even a lot of big names are calling this out as completely unexpected. Who knows what comes next, but honestly, anyone could tell you that this decision caught everyone off guard. We'll just have to see what the fallout looks like in the coming days... Still, Americans have a reason to celebrate... but at the end of the day, I don't know how much that's actually going to help the socioeconomic situation. :/
Were they actually forced out, or did they just pack up and head over to the Appalachia region on their own?
It’s honestly wild how those Mexicans have this selective memory where they only remember the '95 thing... but when it comes to everything else—all the arson, the looting, the killing, and the actual massacres they carried out—it’s like they all just collectively decided to wipe their hard drives... 🤔
Jason Campbell70 said:and we only missed out on the podium because of one stupid tactical blunder...
well, that’s exactly what I meant when I told you to quit crying about it😉 but honestly, why the hell did you even bother replying to my post in the first place🤔 🤷
what kind of tactical geniuses 😂 holy shit, how did they not see which laps Lewis was dropping and just pit him immediately to minimize the damage instead of doing this mess 🤣
Lewis Hamilton didn't just dive in like some total amateur, both of them were hitting the apex at the exact same time, and since Massa veered right into Hamilton's line, you can't even use the racing line excuse to justify it 😉
Maria Lopez said:yeah, honestly both of them should just be thanking Mark Webber for shutting down Zalons at the start, because let's be real, he had the best launch on the grid, in my humble opinion...
but hey, those are just minor details... 😁
and if Fetl and Baton hadn't wiped each other out, we'd probably have some total softie standing on the top step of the podium right now... 👋
It honestly feels like Vettel was just sitting there at the start waiting for Mark Webber to fly past him, but true to form, he completely fumbled the buttons on his steering wheel...
the Massa-Hamilton incident If things hadn't gone down the way they did earlier, we could maybe call this a racing incident, but let’s be real—it’s pretty obvious to everyone watching that Massa went out of his way to block him And then he goes and pulls that same exact stunt from the practice session again🙄
crimsonstag84 said:Those three laps still count, though I guess it doesn't really matter if Jenson Button was basically running on fumes at that point.😬
aha then Sumi could have just claimed he was attacking Jenson when he actually should've checked everything leading up to him first seriously, quit being such haters...
darkmarlin16 said:First off, huge congratsSebastian Vettel on grabbing the title.
Going into this race, I was fully expecting Red Bull to just absolutely steamroll the field—like, their most dominant showing all season. But nope, that didn't happen. As for Fernando, I had him pegged for 5th since, let's be honest, that car isn't exactly a rocket ship, though I was secretly hoping he might scrape into 4th somehow. So, seeing him actually push Jenson Button like that and get right in the mix for the win? Totally caught me off guard. Those white tires were performing shockingly well. Toward the end of the race, I really didn't think Fernando would have the legs to hold off Sebastian using DRS, but man, he defended like a total pro.🙏 He showed some serious class by handling the loss so gracefully, being the VERY FIRST person to congratulate Sebastian on the championship right after hopping out of the car, and then doing it again during the press conference. Honestly, moments like that make me feel pretty damn proud to be rooting for a guy like him.
Regarding Jenson, I’m honestly just glad that if Fernando couldn't take the win, it ended up going to him instead. He proved once again that he's got the edge over Lewis Hamilton, and look, if he isn't rocking that red camera and the number 3 on his car next season, I'm calling foul—that'll be blatant favoritism toward Hamilton.
Red Bull once again played it safe and wouldn't let Mark Webber go for the pass on Sebastian, even though they swore up and down last year that they’d never pull a stunt like that. 🙄
Mercedes, as per usual, was pretty much useless considering what they’re actually aiming for.
Renault 😢
Sergio Perez 🙂
man, I seriously need to know which race you were even watching... 😕
man, Sebastian Vettel seriously has zero clue how to actually drive Fernando Alonso is hands down the best even when he's stuck in a garbage car Lewis Hamilton is just a total jerk Jenson Button was almost the best out there but the absolute GOATs are Prost and Senna
just more of the same mindless babble from one race to the next...
Kobayashi didn't even manage to pull a qualifying lap through to Q3, not even Schumacher could do that... 😉 And honestly, how on earth did Kobayashi end up sitting in 10th, I have zero clue...
It'll all be cleared up tomorrow once they sort out the nonsense... 😁
