Wear what you want. Don't let political correctness dictate whatever you do, regardless of how "racist" someone might think it will be. Wear an American shirt, wear a German shirt, wear whatever. 'Cause don't think for a second that if you take flak for it, Fox News, and everyone on the Internet will defend you, that's for darn sure.

[quote=Midget]it is a vile and absurd act of misogyny to wear such a hat

i find it absolutely putrid that this community openly welcomes this sort of r4pe culture perpetuated by the degenerate patriarchal philosophies of men. i am currenly being r4ped just by the thought of a caucasian donning a sombrero, and i refuse to tolerate this perversion of the female sex[/quote]

There's always some random worker at my store wearing a sombrero. I don't know why. But they're always white.

someone will always find things to be offended about. just wear the hat and stick a middle finger out to the haters

You're appropriating a culture that doesn't even celebrate the "holiday." I would say it's racist but most people will probably look the other way. You will most likely be judged though.

Cinco de mayo is just a glorified american holiday to "celebrate" a day in mexican history that mexicans dont care about at all so idk. Use ur best judgment I think

I think it's racist to not let someone wear a sombrero cause of their race, so no.

Racist? Maybe, depends on how someone looks at it. Will you look like an asshole? Definitely.
