@Krautattack0311 Of course we did, we knew what the French were planning.

happy cinco de mayo



[MrTruthAddict]

Americans originally celebrated Cinco de Mayo because the French defeat at Puebla discouraged the French from trying to use Mexico as a base. Their plan was to support the South in the Civil war, take over the U.S. and continue slavery. Mexico was vehemently against slavery. If it wasn't for Mexico winning that battle, we might all be speaking French, we'd be an entirely different country, and slavery would have gone on much longer. THAT is why Cinco is significant to Americans.

@:42.. i think you meant "despite" not "despise".

[soupmonster100]

Cinco de mayo makes me feel really proud that I am Mexican

[rigerman]

Cuando nos atacaron los Españoles, Ingleses y Franceses. Estados Unidos y Canada ya se preparaban para la guuera, creian que iba a rendirse México totalmente, pero no contaron con la resistencia del pueblo, para mi que sin esa guerra EUA y Canada no estarian aca , y los Europeos ubiesen colonizado gran parte del continente Americano.

[bwockee]

bcuz of us no body messed with the americas again so thank us gringos

[rikinmathur2006]

how long did it last til

[arlorom]

......y hoy Canada, Mexico como Estados Unidos serian parte de Francia. Que perdida para nosotros y satisfacion para los gringos, ya que gracias a eso tienen pais... Y nosotros, ganamos una mierda de gobierno que no cesa de dar dolor de cabeza a los mexicanos. En mejores manos estubieramos, no! Feliz 5 de Mayo!!!

Most People Don't Even Know What Cinco De Mayo Is A Celebration Of...... But Its A Good Day 2Get Drunk Tho.. L0L

[MECHITO1330]

@KassiNichole mexicans in mexico dont celebrate as we do here in usa

[hollywoodwerewolf]

The United States wouldn't have tolerated France's violation of the Monroe Doctorine if it wasn't involved in the Civil War. In hindsight, with Mexico's victory here, a political or military intervention on our part was unnecessary.
