    I read that.....to me May 1 is nightmare day for lawlessness. The 2 day pre-view to Cinq-o demio or whatever it is. The one holiday everyone has that means nothing day....across the globe.

    May Day can refer to various labor celebrations conducted on May 1 that commemorate the fight for the eight hour day. May Day in this regard is called International Workers' Day, or labor Day. The choice of May 1st was a commemoration by the Second International for the people involved in the 1886 Haymarket affair. The Haymarket incident occurred during the course of a three-day general strike in Chicago

    Cinco De Mayo.....May 5th. Usually mistaken to be Mexican Independence Day which is actually in Sept. and celebrates their freedom from Spanish rule

    Cinco De Mayo celebrates a Mexican win over the French Army in the 1860s.

    Very true!
    Another little known fact is that President Lincoln sent American troops into Mexico to help them out after our civil war was over.
