Wouldn't Mexico be a better place to celebrate Mexican independence?

Mexican Independence Day is September 16. I guess they just couldn't wait. (At least they know it's not May 5...Cinco de Mayo...which makes them smarter than most of the msm that get it wrong every year.)
To: BenLurkin
How soon before it's an American national holiday?
250,000? Decent-sized turnout. Wonder what (small) fraction are U.S. citizens?

It'll belong to Mexico soon enough anyway. Oh, but they'll still get the welfare, tuition, etc at our expense.
To: BenLurkin
The keenest form of Mexican nationalism is MOVING TO MEXICO.

I'm looking for pictures -- there seems to be a news blackout on them.

What is Mexican Independence Day? What's it doing in Los Angelea California, and what's the Mayor of Los Angeles Californis, USA, doing celebrating it?

Just did a quick check of the local (L.A.) NBC, ABC, and Fox News, and not one network even mentions the story, let alone shows pics. ....although I could've missed it.

We should have put a Freeper at the lead of the parade and head South for the border.
To: BenLurkin
Sorry, this story has no credibility.
To: BenLurkin
This should definitely not be a government-sponsored parade. If it was made similar to a common demonstration or protest, while legal, it still shouldn't happen. The only Independence Day of an earthly country in the United States should be the independence of the United States (Texas--and even more tenuously California--could have parades for their independence
from Mexico) should be the American Independence.
This is a sign of bad assimilation. Both the immigrants and the natives have to work harder to assimilate the newcomers: the immigrants by accepting English and American customs; the natives by accepting that nonEuropean immigrants can be every bit as much American as any immigrant or native, and by encouraging the immigrants to act more American, and give them nudges in the right direction.
