Thank you, Steve. I was going to start off by saying that his premise was wrong as the Mexicans invited the American settlers in, because they didn't want to deal with the Comanche themselves. Not to mention the rest of the inaccuracies. But then I got that typed, and said forget it because it sounded like someone who was just set on slinging mud at an "ugly American."
