hammered and sound cool, saying, "Cervesa", and pushed by Mexican beer
companies (quite effectively).
I'd bet you'd have a hard time find 3 out of 10 who know what Cinco de
Mayo is for.

These celebrations are happening not only Mexico, where they are rightfully joyous, but also within the Borders of Oregon. Explain to me WHY. The United States of America celebrates its independence from England on 4 July. The United States of America does not hold huge celebrations on the day Canada gained its independence, and Canadians have more in common with the United States of America than Mexico does. Mexico has a more recent history of attacking the United States of America than Canada does. So, again, WHY are celebrations permitted within Oregon celebrating some other nation's independence?
