someone totally missed the point, as if i didn't expect that...but i understand why...you base things on images and stereotypes...if it was a kkk rally, and the media just glossed over it and said it was a texas independence celebration and there were white people calling for all blacks or mexicans to be killed with pictures of dead mexicans...you'd probably be calling it racist saying 'hey, there's some big kkk rally downtown...i'm going to go protest against it...'
our local media even showed a group of mexicans supporting alex jones, one holding his bullhorn, and said they were with the other side...but the media can't really report on either side...because one was frothing at the mouth saying this is mexico and to kill white people...and another side was saying they're corporate funded racists and trying to make them aware of it...and promoting they all just get along...so they lied and called it some mexican independence parade over false pictures...
you probably can't comprehend this with your lack of discernment.
i'm sure you could tell us all about la raza and la mecha though and follow the money, but you'd get bored because it would take more than 1 minute...i in no way insinuated what you said...i'll chock it up to cognitive dissonance.
City of Austin Cancels Texas Independence Day Parade, But Sponsors Cinco de Mayo and Everything Else As Long As it's not Texan
The University of Texas cancelled Texas Independence Day over 10 years ago and banned any university dept from supporting it.
Now the City of Austin is Saying They Can't Allow the Parade because they can't supply police for it. But every year, for Cinco de Mayo, Austin's downtown is shut down as thousands of screaming people violently wave Mexican flags

Texas Independence parade canceled because of cost

AUSTIN - The annual Texas Independence Day parade in the state capital has been canceled following the City Council's decision against sponsoring the event.
Meanwhile, council members will decide Thursday whether they made the wrong decision in January to not help pay for the parade and fun run.
Celebrate Texas, a nonprofit group, would have to spend $11,800 for the parade and run this year - up from the $5,000 it paid last year, said state Sen. Gonzalo Barrientos, a board member of Celebrate Texas.
City officials estimated that both events would cost about $12,500.
"It's especially sad for me," said Barrientos, D-Austin, who called the decision a "terrible shame" for the state capital.
Barrientos, who sponsored legislation last year to make March "Texas History Month," announced the decision to cancel the parade Monday.
Celebrate Texas will still have events next week, including a memorial for Texas Revolution soldiers and a celebration at the Capitol on March 2. The group had organized the parade since 2000.
The city currently co-sponsors events for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Cinco de Mayo, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Mexican Independence Day and Veterans Day. Councilman Brewster McCracken said the city is trying to resolve the issue quickly.
"This was something we were not aware of as an issue," McCracken told the Austin American-Statesman in Tuesday's editions. "We acted immediately upon learning about it."

Texans for Freedom Announces a Rally in Support of American and Texas Sovereignty
Infowars | September 16, 2005 | Texans for Freedom
Posted on 09/16/2005 8:54:31 PM PDT by mjem
Having read reports that
Texas United Latino Artists (TULA) is planning to lead a march down Congress from Riverside to the Capitol in celebration of Mexican independence from Spain, Texans for Freedom is announcing a counter demonstration to be led by its director, Alex Jones from 4:00-6:00 PM on Saturday, September 17 th at the intersection of Congress and 11 th Street in front of the big iron gates at the south entrance to the Capitol.
Texans for Freedom has a nine year history of protesting racist hate groups. In 1999, founder Alex Jones engaged in a four-hour bullhorn filibuster against a Klu Klux Klan rally in Waco,
Texas.
Jones understands that many of the organizers and groups participating in the TULA parade are not racist and are simply celebrating their heritage. However he knows that some of the groups participating, like MECHA and La Raza, are overtly racist and he is determined to expose this through his activism to the media.
The MECHA, motto is, ??Everything for the race, for those outside the race nothing,? and La Raza, means ??The Race? in Spanish. Can you imagine if a white or black organization called itself ??The Race?? It??s time for this type of behavior to be exposed.
There is a double standard here. Meanwhile, groups like MECHA and Young Immigrant Students for a Better Future demonize the Minutemen project for peacefully going to the border and reporting border crossers who are violating federal law to police.
Many prominent leaders of the Minutemen are Hispanic and they resent claims by some immigrant groups that they are all secret KKK members. The reason that there is a Minutemen project is because prominent leaders of Hispanic organizations have publicly stated
over and
over again that the entire Southwest still belongs to Mexico and that they are in the process of ??reconquista,? or re-conquering the Southwest.
Now, the TULA organization, in their own press release states that they want to have Dies y Seis celebrations in every state capitol in the union. Meanwhile, these events are being used by many radical groups as a promotion of what can only be called revolutionary activities in the United States.
Texans for Freedom has video evidence from across the nation depicting MECHA proudly displaying pictures of white severed heads. At these raucous rallies there are huge banners depicting Aztec warriors cutting whites?? hearts out.
This is a very dangerous development in America and will be addressed by Texans for Freedom, led by Alex Jones from 4:00-6:00 PM on Saturday, September 17 th at the intersection of Congress and 11 th Street in front of the big iron gates at the south entrance to the Capitol.
Texans for Freedom will also educate the public on the fact that many Mexican supremacist organizations are promoting the lie that Hispanics have no stake in
Texas culture.
Over a third of the soldiers who fought for
Texas independence against the dictator Santa Anna were proud Tejano Texans. Santa Anna himself was removed by the Mexican people just a few years later in Mexico City.
While once celebrated, it is almost a secret today that the framer of the
Texas Constitution was Hispanic, or that a disproportionate number of heroes in the battles for independence were Hispanic.
Why are Texans for Freedom angry?
Over a
decade ago the
University of
Texas banned University promotion of
Texas Independence Day. The
University however promotes Dies y Seis. This is political correctness gone insane. Groups like this have been shouting Americans into silence for far too long while major polls show that their views do not represent the feelings of most Hispanics (2004 Gallup poll ?? 67% Hispanics wanted tighter border controls).
We love
Texas heritage, we love US sovereignty and we support the Minutemen who have been venomously demonized, when all they did in this post-9/11 world was heed the call to be vigilant. Many people let these Dies y Seis celebrations become a platform for America-bashing and an open call for revolution along racial lines. It is unbelievable.
We challenge the media to be fair and to come out and research these facts at our rally where you will see Texans of all colors coming together to stand up for Texan and American sovereignty. Why can Dies y Seis to be celebrated when
Texas independence is treated like some dirty sore? Think about it, they are celebrating the independence of a foreign country and many of the participating organizations openly discuss the overthrow of our own country. Why do we put up with this? Most frightening of all is these groups?? blatant manipulation of well-meaning individuals seeking simply to celebrate their heritage and do not know what they are really getting into.
