    First of all, learn how to spell.

    Second, nobody calls the South West Aztlan unless they've been reading House of the Scorpion or they are extremely ignorant.

    Third, it doesn't matter where cubans or puerto ricans or mexicans are. Its just like asking, "What do you think about white people in America and Jews in Jerusalem?"

    The question that you should be asking is not whether or not its ok for a race to be in a certain place. I dont think you realize how that question just makes you sound so incredibly racist.

    Puerto rican are Americans and Puerto ricans all at the same time. Mexicans however, are a different story. I like the ones who come over legally but the ones who come illegally need to be shipped back to Mexico. They need to fix mexico!!!! It's a beautiful country, but a ****** up place!!!!

    Aztlan only exists in your imagination. As to the others I have no idea where Nuyork is so it must also exist only in your imagination. The cubans in Florida are lucky they get special treatment.

    Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens. Cubans are Safe guarded by the Wet foot/Dry Foot Policies, and Mexicans claiming the southwest as Aztlan are deluding themselves with a false idea that their fairytale Aztlan is in the states when it is in fact only a children's mythical story from out of Mexico. La Raza and MEChA promote this false ideology.

    "The acronym MEChA stands for "Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan." or "Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan."

    MEChA is an Hispanic separatist organization that encourages anti-American activities and civil disobedience. The radical members of MEChA who refer to themselves as "Mechistas," romanticize Mexican claims to the "lost Territories" of the Southwestern United States -- a Chicano country called Aztlan. In its national constitution, MEChA calls for self-determination by its members to liberate Aztlan. MEChA's national constitution starts out: "Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán."

    These anti-American "Mechistas" live with the false illusion that they are being racially discriminated against because they are Latinos while totally dismissing the idea that maybe it is their ideology that is being discriminated against.

    At the MEChA National Conference on March 15 - 18, 2001, the official "MEChA Philosophy" was ratified. An excerpt from the document states: "as Mechistas, we vow to work for the liberation of Aztlan."

    The MEChA Clubs on each of the Santa Barbara high school campuses are not the only ones. MEChA groups exist on 90 percent of the public high school, college and university campuses in the Southwestern United States."

    Philosophy of MEChA:

    No such thing as Aztlan. Never has been never will be a real place.

    If "Aztlan" is a new brand of toilet paper, I`ll let you know what I think of it-after I try it.
