Why Do we Celebrate Mexicos Independence day in the U.S.?
I actually just answered a similar question so I’ll tell you what I told that person. It’s because half our country is taken over by hispanics** (I know my town is!) & it gives us a reason to party like every other holiday does!! LOL!! It’s just like how we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. That’s an Irish holiday with no significance to the US except for the fact that many Irish people immigrated over here years upon years ago. We’re just one big mix of culture here aren’t we?! =o) **I have nothing against them….I dated a Mexican guy for a while & he was wonderful.
