Thread: Immigration Activists Deliver Taco Bowls to GOP Lawmakers Supporting Donald Trump

Give me a break. This just goes to show how ignorant these people are. I grew up in California and until the 80's nobody celebrated Cinco de Mayo. We had our Greek Festivals, our Italian Festivals our Portuguese Festivals our Chinese New Year our Mexican Fiesta's, etc. but nobody celebrated Cinco de Mayo, not here and not in Mexico. The fact is that Cinco de Mayo is an Mexican American holiday started in California. Like most American holidays it was promoted largely to make money for businesses, this time liquor companies.

Since Cinco de Mayo as well as taco bowls represent the American Mexicans and not Mexico and I have never heard Trump saying anything bad about American Mexicans what difference does it make? I mean should we go after every restaurant or bar that has tequila specials for Cinco de Mayo. Should we ban tequila as being a racist drink?
