We have every right to control our borders, and should do so. However, there are a lot of "Mexicans" living in the United States who are citizens and whose families lived here far before that of the poster. I personally know some whose family histories predate the Mexican-American war, and who became American by default after we gained New Mexico, Arizona, and California. They have every right to be here. A surprisingly large number, like Roy Benavidez, proved it beyond any doubt whatsoever. I appreciate the poem and the humor in it. But you are also implicitly insulting a lot of people who not only don't deserve it, but who individually may be a better American than thou.
