Mexico's president wants an apology for violations committed by Spanish conquistadors in the region, 500 years ago
What the hell is the point of this? Everyone demanding apologies from everyone else. It solves nothing, just allows you to lord over them (in your mind).
Everyone just wants to feel like they're better than everyone else. I think it's the same concept with slow drivers in the left lane... they don't want you to pass or else you're getting one over on them... so they police the lane, and force you to do something that they're making you do (slow down).
This really goes with everything in today's society... just boils down to people craving validation
Maybe he's peeved that because of the Spanish settlement of Mexico, it's not part of the U.S. today.
