I just looked in my mirror and said "Fiesta, Fiesta, Fiesta." Does that mean an angry Mexican will pop out and kill me?

Of course Cinco De Mayo is an American Holiday! It's as much an American one as a Mexican one! It celebrates when American soldiers volunteered to defend Mexico from invaders from France and Spain in the 19th century. The Americans turned the tide in the war and Mexico was able to remain independent. People who would be offended by Americans celebrating this holiday are idiots who are just looking for attention, plain and simple.

Do you think the facts of the article are wrong, because I can link other sources if you want. Or are you disagreeing with the article's premise and agreeing with the PC police that white people should not say fiesta.

I personally am on the fence. I know lots of people have been injured by others saying "fiesta". /Sarcasm

Yea, screw the potential money that will be raised. All that money will be tainted if even one person is offended.

Can you imagine the outrage if she was Irish and protesting like this with respect to St. Patrick's Day?
