It wasn't that long ago that Cinco De Mayo was a non-event in this country till Corona started pushing it to sell more beer. The restaurants jumped on that bandwagon shortly after. It is nothing more than an excuse to get drunk.
The school administrator was out of line asking the kids to remove the t-shirts. The "Mexican-Americans" (in quotes because they are really Americans of Mexican descent. Something a lot of people are all too eager to overlook.) are just playing the typical race card/I feel disrespected because that is the currently accepted way for them to react to things they don't like. If they are truly Mexican, then they need to get over it. Its not their country.
