78. I don't think the influx of Europeans and their deadly diseases fits this discussion.
The sad reality is that at least 2/3rds of the Indigenous population of New Spain (Mexico) was wiped out by European diseases. The almost unspeakable reality is that the U.S.A. had a policy of genocide toward the plains Indians. Both these facts have records to prove them true. There are also records that show that the so called "Spanish Flu" began in the U.S.A. and was brought to Europe by U.S.A. soldiers who came to fight in WWI. Far more people were affected by it in Europe than in the U.S.A. Now show me the records that prove that illegals have brought diseases to the U.S.A.
