California, Mexico
Think it cannot happen? Then check out today's feature article on the anti-United States official memorial in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. Here are some of the words found on the monument, erected in 1993:
"This land was Mexican once, was Indian always and is, and will be again" and "It was better before they came." The "they" meaning us "evil" white people. This quote is from Gloria Anzaldua, a self-described "chicana dyke-feminist, tejana patlache poet, writer, and cultural theorist."
The organization, Save Our State is behind the attempts to have the City of Baldwin Park remove the anti-American monument. I don't know whether or not they are a crackpot group or a group of citizens who are tired of the denigration of our great country and the breaking of its laws. Check them out and decide for yourself.
