The article claims a multicultural crowd showed up for the parade, which is pretty much nonsense. Perhaps a few Anglo politicians showed up in order to keep their jobs, and perhaps some tourists who thought that they had suddenly been teleported to Mexico. One Hispanic in the audience is quoted as saying the parade “bonds people together.” It sure does. It unites the Mexican invaders and the Anglos who have been watching their country overrun by Hispanics. But it does not unite the two groups. They will always remain enemies: the invaders and the invaded.
The article itself is nothing more than propaganda hype. By the way, San Jose ranks 10th in the national crime rate behind Dallas, Texas. In a Metroactive article the following was stated about gang crime in San Jose:
This year, there have been 32 murders, 13 of which have been confirmed as gang-related, according to San Jose police. The most recent murder was Nov. 23, when a gunman fired shots in garage, killing two people and injuring one. Police are still investigating what they believe was a gang-related shooting.
Gang violence is even spilling over into the schools. In early September there was an attempted homicide, when a student was stabbed in the chest at San Jose High School.
By the way, remember Carlos Sousa who is thought to have taunted the San Francisco Zoo tiger, Tatiana, causing it to escape to killed Sousa, attack two other aliens, and was, as a result, killed by authorities? He was from San Jose.
Americans have nothing to celebrate on Cinco de Mayo other than the Hispanicization and criminalization of American cities. For them it’s a day of mourning.
