According to a news report this morning, people in Los Angeles can expect massive traffic jams Tuesday, a result of two rallies — one for immigration reform, the other for labor rights — being staged by immigration-rights advocates in conjunction with Cinco de Mayo celebrations. Upon reading the news, I asked myself, “Can anything good come from a celebration involving mayonnaise?”

Regardless of how one answers that question, one truth remains: Rallies staged in conjunction with Cinco de Mustard events don’t snarl traffic, slow down commerce or disrupt the lives of people who choose not to attend.

To the contrary, Cinco de Mustard events tend to attract people who, at a minimum, possess faith the size of a mustard seed — or larger. [Note: To learn more about Cinco de Mustard, read this Bob McCarty Writes post from April 14.]

If you share that kind of faith, make a public demonstration of it by purchasing one of the fine Cinco de Mustard items available in the The Cinco de Mustard Shop.
