Think of it like a White holiday, built completely around drinking.
Blacks get a month.
Gingers get a drunk day.

Fuck no. The only nationality-pride holiday that should be federally recognized in this country is the 4th of July.
Don’t get me wrong, I love St Patty’s day and I will be out drinking in honor of the 8% of Irish blood in me. I just don’t think an Irish pride holiday should be recognized by the American government.
