So.. You are saying that most of the people that are involved or show up to the parade are criminal illegal aliens? INTERSTING. Archive: https://archive.today/EZ7MZ From the post: Chicago has cancelled its Cinco de Mayo Parade, held annually in the sanctuary city, over fears of ICE raids. Organizers announced on Thursday that the parade, which was set to be held on the Southwest Side of the city next month, has been cancelled as Trump's war on illegal immigrants has sparked fear across the country. 'Our people are scared,' said Hector Escobar, President of the Casa Puebla & Cermak Road Chamber of Commerce. Escobar told ABC 7: 'See, some of them, they don't even want to go to work and some of them, they've taken a high risk. And definitely, it's not much to celebrate.' The fifth of May festivities originally celebrated the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Activists then later rediscovered the holiday and transformed its meaning into a day of ethnic pride, and now it resonates with many as a celebration of Mexican American culture.
