The REAL message of the boycotts in America on May 1 is that Mexicans and Central Americans despise, don't care and don't love, or want to go back to their motherland. This is sad.

Larry Holmes of ANSWER was on TV here in NYC at a press conference for the protest today.

It's the same antiwar communists once again.

It's Loyalty Day!

Loyalty Day is observed on May 1 in the United States. It is a day set aside for the reaffirmation of loyalty to the United States and for the recognition of the heritage of American freedom.

The holiday was first celebrated in the 1930s as Americanization Day, and was intended to serve as a counterweight to May Day, which was celebrated as a Communist holiday.

Celebrate by going and buying from American Business!

I am getting so sick of the term "Immigrants Rights".

This is about trespassers who are parading down our streets demanding to be given rights and the liberal left who is embracing them. The media (even conservative talk radio news programs) refer to them as immigrants.

If someone came onto my property, set up a tent city, then demanded that I bring out a drinking water supply, electricity and toilet facilities... I would be standing there with a gun telling them to get off.

The media would say I am the bad guy...after all, they just want the same things that you and I do.

[I still care]

The protests have also reminded me to contact my senators and tell them MY opinion:

NO ILLEGAL AMNESTY! CLOSE THE BORDERS!

Does everyone think that is clear enough. I tried to be really, really clear so it couldn't be SPUN or MISUNDERSTOOD!

Arggghhhh!

Here is the basic address so everyone can do the same...

Does anyone else find it ironic these are being held on “May Day”? Big day for communists.

May Day a.k.a. International Workers' Day

International Workers' Day (a name used interchangeably with May Day) is the commemoration of the Haymarket Riot of 1886 in Chicago, Illinois, and a celebration of the social and economic achievements of the international labor movement. The 1 May date is used because in 1884 the Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions, inspired by labor's 1872 success in Canada, demanded an eight-hour workday in the United States to come in effect as of May 1, 1886. This resulted in a general strike and the riot in Chicago of 1886, but eventually also in the official sanction of the eight-hour workday. The May Day Riots of 1894 and May Day Riots of 1919 occurred subsequently.

Due to these left-wing overtones, May Day has long been a focal point for demonstrations by various socialist, communist, and anarchist groups. In some circles, bonfires are lit in commemoration of the Haymarket Riot usually right as the first day of May begins. [1] In the 20th century, May Day received the official endorsement of the Soviet Union; celebrations in communist countries during the Cold War era often consisted of large military parades and shows of common people in support of the government.

The Red Scare periods ended May Day as a mass holiday in the United States, a phenomenon which can be seen as somewhat ironic given that May Day originated in Chicago. Meanwhile, in countries other than the United States and United Kingdom, resident working classes fought hard to make May Day an official governmentally-sanctioned holiday, efforts which eventually largely succeeded. For this reason, May Day in most of the world today is marked by huge street rallies of workers led by their trade unions and various large socialist and communist parties — a phenomenon not generally seen in the U.S. (which has a history of strong anti-communism) or the UK.

In most countries other than the U.S. and UK, May Day is often referred to simply as "Labor Day".

Have unilaterally declared American Consumer Freedom Day and am about to embark on a minor (or major) spree at a number of fine businesses.

Will also take note for future shunning of any cowardly rat and roach infested stores which have closed up for the day.

Will show my respect for crimminal immigrants (crimigrants) causes by taking an extra long siesta this afternoon prior to going out for dinner this evening.

A hijacking of the numbers the leftists can't produce with their anti-war and anti-capitalism rallies in now underway. They will call it "populist support" for their causes.
