Cinco de Mayo
May. 6th, 2005 03:30 pmYesterday 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.
