Remember



On March 23rd, 1836 Mexican Presiden General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna ended the 13 day seige at this abandoned Spanish mission known as the Alamo with an assault that lasted 90 minutes and resulted in the deaths of legendary Tennesee Congressman David Crocket and entrepeneur James Bowie of the "Bowie knife" fame. 189 men defended that improvised fortress against Santa Anna's Army of of over 2,000. The 13 day siege gave time for the provisional government of Texas to form and Sam Houston to form his Army. Though Houston's Army couldn't rescue Crocket and Col. Travis they were able to later rout Santa Anna at the battle of San Jacinto thus freeing Texas from Mexico. Sometimes when I see all those illegals marching in our streets I think I know how Col. Crocket felt as Sata Anna approached. This is the country we as independant Americans liberated ourselves from British rule for. We have fought many battles and wars to maintain our freedom and independance. After Texas gained its independance from Mexico it joined the Union. Today we risk becoming " Los Estados Unidos de Mexico del Norte" if this illegal flood is not halted.
These open border advocates are more than unsrupulous businessmen and politicians...they are traitors.
