There’s no here that “celebrates “ Cinco De Mayo.

They use that for an excuse to drink Corona. That’s about it.

Your friend should stop appropriating the Hispanic culture.

Mexico was taken over in the 1860s by a relative of Napoleon who tried to establish a kingdom. It didn't end well for him, but the French Foreign Legion got some cool traditions out of it.

Yes. You guys can't stand Mexico and Nova Scotia kicked y'all out. Spain and France didn't want you mutts, either.

I wouldn't chance celebrating it.

If you're white (and I'm assuming you are with a name like OceanMan), you are probably 1/32 - 1/64 pilgrim.
