Yank their chain! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Illegal aliens marching in the street demanding rights? Politicians swooning at their feet?
How about they swoon at our feet? Worry about backlash from we the citizens! How about we give them a tug on the chain so they know who's in charge? How?
Everybody – and I mean everybody – take Friday off.
Not only does it tell the elites & their lackeys in D.C. that it's our country – not theirs – but it speaks the only language they understand: money. Hit them where it hurts.
If even a quarter of the people took this Friday off, that'd snap their heads around real quick.
EVERYBODY TAKE THIS FRIDAY OFF. It's a small, small price to pay to save the United States.
I'm in. Are you?

(VANITY) This angry letter to World Net Daily urges real Americans NOT to show up to work on Friday. This also happens to be Caesar Chavez day and a lot of rallys and walkouts are being organized. My question is... will this work? Half the work force in the Southwest will be at the protests (rallys) anyway. Wouldn't a better protest be to withhold Government paychecks?
Maybe I'll take the day off and go have lunch at a nice Mexican restaurant!
[...We shouldn't act like the hooligans who are out marching...]
I agree and this idea scares me a bit. But it's out there. That's the point of my post. This is anarchy.
I'm still pondering ways to punish our spineless legislators through the pocketbook.
Uhhh...they are...it's spring break....
Une grève générale! C'est une idée fantastique!
[...I am self-employed, what do I do?...]
That's why this is such a DUMB idea. It's like the kids leaving classes, not for the cause, but for the day off.
We need a better idea.
Heh heh
Friday's my day off, anyway. So count me in.
It does take a lot to get conservatives fired up. We talk a lot, but not a lot of action.
I don't think a WORKOUT does anything but hurt good people. Might even open the door for illegals to a good guy's job.
We need another plan, one that includes violence and martyrs.
"BTW, don't you owe me money? :)"
Probably! It seems I owe everyone money but like I tell them, get in line! LOL
Funny,
I already took off this Friday and next about a week ago, so I guess I'm in!
Perhaps it would be better to protest by refusing to patronize businesses known to hire illegals?
See Post #26.
We need a better plan.
Yeah! Everybody take Friday off! But not the school teachers. And not anyone who works for my local cable TV station. Or HBO! Or HSN!
Too French
Oh! Good.
As for the kids staying home all next week, ARE YOU NUTS?! Leave my teenager home unsupervised for a week while I'm at work?!
Friday, March 31, is Cesar Chavez Day, a big chicano holiday... well, at least in CA... don't know about other states.
Don't do Friday, it's too many people's payday.
And not this soon. Not tomorrow! We've got to get together on this or it will seem weak and disorganized. (which it is at this point)
We need to make a strong statement!
I've BEEN writing my Senators and Congress OM, but they aren't listening.
Politicians fear illegals more than they fear citizens. Something not right in that.
WE citizens pay the bills. Not right. Not right at all.
Arnold is going to have to call in the Navy the way they did during WWII
when the ZOOT SUIT riots broke out in Long Beach.
Lock and Load is right.
