It's just a corporate manufactured holiday to try and sell more beer. We American's don't tend to question "drinking" holidays.

See also St. Patric's Day.

Much like we won ours on july 2nd but celebrate the 4th... mexico's independence wasn't recognized until the 27th.

But that's not my point. I don't see why that should be celebrated in the states and why kids should get in trouble for wearing american flag shirts to school and called disrespectful? I'm all for being proud of your heritage but think it's funny that it's o.k. for EVERYONE but white americans.

You see a brown pride tattoo... no big deal. Hell Cane has one and you see him on TV if you like the UFC. Black pride. Asian pride. etc. If I had a white pride tattoo I would be labeled a racist... even by white people. WTF. Am I not allowed to be proud of my heritage?

This is my point. Over tolerance.

Not to slap at your heritage bro. I'm all for it. Hell more than a few people think I'm mexican when they meet me. haaaa.

bah.. my point is stated.

Gots no issues. Hell Stirs you know me. Not issues at all.
WTF Ray? youre NOT Mexican?!
