Mark Steyn, Re: SF boycott

Today when I asked Mark Steyn, what should we do in retaltiation to SF mayor demanding his city workers boycott AZ for goverment business, he said:

"Do nothing. They have a dying economy anyway. They have more dogs registered than people."

This was just more of his unexpected but insightful reckoning, that treated the sold out crowd of Tucsonian conservatives this afternoon, whose laughter rose to the heights of our elation to have him here.

I was in the book signing line, and too exhillarated to have him in Tucson and to hear him address the Goldwater Institute event, that I felt for the many others that were there to commend him for his excellent and scintilatting speech, so that I asked for no more elaboration on this passive resistance.

But I do have notes of his bright bon mots that I will share for Freepers most like by tonight.

Meanwhile, here are a list of southern AZ wineries that you can support, to show your displeasure towards those that want to ecomomically harm us, by transferring your beverage dollars away from the control of bay area/ wine country bureaucratic fascist.

I choose these wineries, because they are near the embattled border, and this truly beautiful country has been despoiled by illegal alien trafficing, forcing many people like myself, not to take the pleasures of this buccolic countryside for fear of running into coyotes and their bands harming.

Test them and see if they suit your palate. I am sure they will ship outside the skirmish lines.

Please excuse me if I cannot respond until later because I will be transcribing my notes for this forum.

Dar! What happened to the spellcheck? Sorry.

As Rush said today the kind and compassionate thing to do for the dying city of San Francisco would be one-way bus tickets there for illegals.

The illegals can live on social services until the the population can no longer support them, then they can do the environmentally responsible thing by recycling the copper pipes from the near empty and gunless homes.

Got some good tips here, too:

You did fine. I’m looking forward to the rest of your report.

No California wine in this family until they back down and.....apologize to Arizona.

I should be buying 100% Texas wine anyway.....

[mtrott]

I love listening to Steyn when he fills in for Rush. That is one hilarious man to listen to. He can get on a roll of pointing out liberal inanity that just cracks me up.

Patriots have been boycotting San Francisco ever since Communist Feinstein canceled Fleet Week

Ping!

Personally, I avoid California whenever I travel and have done so for years.

Strange, since I was born in San Diego, lived in Long Beach and San Pedro, went to school in Monterey and other training at Coronado, Pendleton and in and out from San Francisco but the place has changed, politically and socially so much it's no longer recognizable from that place in my memories.

That's not truly boycotting the place, Jinxy, it's just a sensible choice that works for me.

[roses of sharon]

Lulu, you should put your wine list in a titled thread of its own, I would imagine many would be interested.

Thanks!

[ken5050]

Please ping me to your report, when you post it..thanks

[lulu16]

Hi Sharon,

I separated the list just for you.

Thanks lulu...great thread title!

I will pass this around.

[MadelineZapeezda]

Do you think some of these wineries use illegals to pick grapes and are anti-immigration law? Just wondering

[lulu16]

My husband and I plan all the vendors that come into our home, if they use illegas. And if they hesitate, because they don’t want to answer, we will turn on the on them.

As for these sites, I cannot vouch.
