Thread: NE Mexicans Celebrate Revolution on 9/11

Unbelievable that the Nebraska Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the Mexican Consulate is hosting a Mexican Revolution Celebration over the 9/11 weekend!?!

So, we have the Imam Muslims slapping Americans in the face with building a "community center" near 9/11 site, but we have Mexicans who slap us in the face by not even observing one of the most horrific dates in our country's history. Does anyone really wonder WHY AMERICANS are so ticked off?

* Omaha to Host Mexican Revolution Celebration

Unbelievable! I think the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce took the Fred Carnegie Course on How To Lose Friends and Make Enemies. Why do they celebrate the Mexican Revolution anyway? Shouldn't they be in Mexico to do that instead of ... Nebraska??!!

I agree and since the actual day is September 16th and they did NOT plan the celebration for that weekend I can only assume they intentionally are slapping Americans in the face and almost seem to be celebrating the attacks of 9/11 against our country!

I am so angry I could spit nails. And what's really bad is that because me and other great Americans are going to be attending various 9/11 Memorial Services we can't even protest their event! - and that really ticks me OFF!

Same here tomorrow in my town.

Pretty soon American Hispanics will get an official Monday holiday in which they can skip work.

American Hispanics best call for the cancellation of any and all celebrations of foreign revolutions.

They act like Mexicans are the new "It Girl".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_girl

"An It girl or It-girl is a charming, sexy young woman who receives intense media coverage unrelated or disproportional to personal achievements. The reign of an "It girl" is usually temporary; some of the rising It girls will either become fully-fledged celebrities or their popularity will fade. The term "It boy", much less frequently used, is the male equivalent. This term is unrelated to the abbreviation IT."
