Cinco de Mayo

[semperfiona]

Yesterday evening, on my way home from work, I passed a rather different
Cinco de Mayo celebration than I am accustomed to: a group of perhaps
thirty people dressed in sombreros and carrying signs saying things like
"Deport all illegals", "Stop immigration", "Al Queda[sic] open borders"
and "Mexicans belong in Mexico". I was appalled.

I could not figure out why they'd chosen that spot, right in front of a
gas station and a Catholic Charities office, until this morning when I
realized they were standing on Mexico Road. Dorky, but possible.

How idiotic.

Now that you're old enough to know, I guess I should tell you...

There is a small Mexican restraunt around the corner in that little strip mall too isn't there? I've never eaten there, but perhaps they have a large percentage of wait staff that is of Mexican descent - not that it's any excuse but maybe they were trying to make a subtle point to that establishment. ::shrugs:: You can't fix stupid (nor can you program for it!)
