Where is our beautiful USA flag thanks to this great country you have the freedom to put your flag out there

[@teresaguerrrasalazar4964]

I do not support wild festive circus parades. I'm Mexican, just to remind you that the US invaded and appropriated all of the Southwest from an Amerindian neighboring country of Mexico, if the United Nations had existed then they would have not allowed it.

[@teresaguerrrasalazar4964]

We are Amerindians, all of the American continent is our people's land. I just do not support loud wild parades that disturb people's right to peace, it gets on my nerves.

Jumping across the border. Your silly laws dont apply to them. You break one law the rest will be easy to break. They are not listening to you, your urgent replies for civility falls on deaf ears with this group.

Where was this urge during Juneteenth?

[@vital4644_]

Dude, im hella confused on that holiday to be honest! I don't really know what it means. Afro American, white holiday, or gay day?

[@CavemanBearPig]

@@vital4644_ It’s the day that marked the end of slavery at the end of the Civil War. When it happened this year, there were a shitload of riots and lootings taking place rather than celebrations and the government hardly made an effort to stop it for fear of being accused of racism.

[@alfredosoto3852]

What's juneteenth?? Or what happens on June 10th

[@vital4644_]

@alfredosoto3852 i think he replied earlier, something about slavery! However, I've never heard of it. Gonna Google it! There are a lot of new holidays these past years! Frankly getting confused. In my personal opinion, i can sympathize with their holidays! But dont relate much! Mexico has Afro-mexicans too, but its different in Mexico from here! Im indigenous Mexican from oaxaca! Afro-mexicans are different from Americans tbh! No one is stopping Afro-American from doing the same thing, this is the United States! Freedom, baby! Invite a Mexican, we can cook chicken too... 😋
