The few, the proud, the East Mexicans

I live on a street named East Mexico Avenue. Some years back, one of my neighbors had a great idea: what if we invited
everybody in the neighborhood to do a citizens parade on the 4th?

It took a couple of years to catch on, but as you can see in this video, our little part
of southeast Denver took to the streets. We took back our country by calmly answering all the naysayers with bagpipes and a screech now and then from our friendly Denver patrol car!


America: love it, or tell us what's wrong so we can get about fixing the broken parts.

It's not much of a slogan, but it's all I've got at 6 a.m. after being up late watching fireworks last night.


PS - Please allow me the goofball credits which run at the end of the video. My inner child insists on coming out to play every holiday weekend.
