Mexico's Atrocities against America, should Not allow for any "cinco de mayo" recognition....Respect those that Died for Us !!!...Remember the Alamo !!!
Request for proper consideration and Respect;....Do NOT celebrate "Cinco-de Mayo"
Please remember March 6th, 1836.......Not May 5th,1862............ Remember the Alamo!!!
Request for proper consideration and Respect;....Do NOT celebrate "Cinco-de Mayo"
I am asking both individuals and corporation / company/ Media, and Public Entities to finally do "The Right Thing" and do Not celebrate, or participate in a fake and manufactured "holiday". Furthermore this so-called Mexican (1862), celebration shows a Great Disrespect to those 200 Americans of 26 years earlier (then Cinco-de-Mayo), that were Murdered by Mexico under General Santa Anna....... Let me explain;....
In 1836 at a Missionary compound, that we all may know as "The Alamo", in a land called the Republic of Texas, 200 Americans stood alone protecting the rights of Texas to become a state in the young America of that time period. Mexico didn't want that and sent over 1500 troops to destroy this compound and squash this (American) dream! Unfortunately they did overrun this compound and killed all,......even those who wished to surrender!!! Mexico then piled all the Americans' bodies into piles and burned them beyond recognition. This Desecration violated ALL principles of warfare and rules of Honor-in-Battle. This performance of violating Human Rights angered Americans all over the existing America, that the cry of......"Remember the Alamo", rang through-out the land and Americans joined together to repel Mexico out of Texas, and years later Texas became the 28th state of these United States.
......Now this so-called "cinco" Holiday ( in 1862), that everyone celebrates is really nothing but a war skirmish that Mexico had with the French, and Yes they did repel the French Troops on May 5th, of 1862, but a few weeks later the French returned and conquered Mexico,....so what is there to celebrate, even for Mexicans?? The fact is that even Mexico doesn't celebrate this so-called day, as a National "holiday", because it means little to Mexicans, so why does America embrace this meaningless day to America, and at the same time, ignore our past Heroes who died at the hand of Mexico? Why are we doing a disservice to our fellow Americans, who died protecting this country, and why are we spending more time with a "Fake' day called "Cinco-de-Mayo", then actually respecting those who Died at the Alamo???. Why would any American want to "Raise-a-Glass" to celebrate with those who desecrated American bodies?? ........WHY do we now??? Is Mexico more important to our History then our own American history???.........Are we ashamed of being American? Doesn't it mean anything to us, that Human bodies, that were of Americans fighting for our Freedoms, were burnt in a dishonorable and disrespectful way? Their Families never got to say their final Farewells. Doesn't that mean anything to Americans anymore?? Can we in Good Faith sit down and celebrate with food and drink, with those who are celebrating a day in Mexico that was just 26 years after this Human desecration of Americans by Mexicans. What have we become??
Please STOP this Dishonor to Americans and our History, and show Respect for those who died creating this country, and not those who showed Disrespect to this country.....stop This FAKE day called Cinco-de-mayo, and................."REMEMBER THE ALAMO". ...........I Thank You
