!Ask a Mexican!: Are Mexicans Like Scots?

Dear Mexican: Consider the similarities between my people, the Celtic Scots, and yours, the Hispanic Mexicans. Both of our people trace their roots back to Spain. We sailed north to the British Isles and mixed with the aboriginals to become the Scots; you sailed west to mix with the aboriginal Americans. My people were organized into large gangs called clans, distinguished by our colors (plaids), like the Mexican gangs today. We would cross over the border into Anglo-Saxon England to commit various crimes—cattle rustling, theft, rape, murder—and then run back across the border to get away scot-free, just like you Mexicans. “*
