    Cinco de Mayo is an opportunity to drink beer, eat Mexican food, have picnics, gather with friends and maybe even learn a bit about Mexican history; what more reason could you ask for? Oh and since a large portion of the US is stolen Mexican land, we have plenty of Mexicans here in the US and personally I enjoy celebrating with them. Happy belated cinco de Mayo!
