May 1 Is Conservative Shopping Day!
HUMAN EVENTS ^ | Apr 14, 2006 | Mac Johnson

Posted on 04/13/2006 11:53:51 PM PDT by neverdem

As you no doubt know, illegal aliens and their handlers plan to hold their next Senate intimidation rallies on May 1, better known as the Marxist holiday of “May Day.” The May Day campaign will consist of yet more anti-law-enforcement marches and a nationwide “boycott” of shopping. The aim of the boycott is to demonstrate the purchasing power of the 11 million immigration criminals demanding amnesty. The boycott will also include a general strike by immigration criminals, who are being encouraged to skip work that day. Now it appears that illegal aliens are here to just skip the jobs that no American is willing to skip.

If the boycott and strike are successful, this means that May 1 will be A DAY WITHOUT ILLEGAL ALIENS! Lines will be shorter. Clerks will all speak English. Businesses that have been honest enough to hire legal residents will be poised to finally enjoy a competitive advantage! It will be morning again in America. Every actual American should make a point to get out and support those businesses and counteract the criminal boycott movement.

Spend like a congressman! Spend like George W. Bush! Heck, spend like Teddy Kennedy on a junket to a distillers’ convention. Spend in freedom and order in a mall or Wal-Mart near you. I hereby declare May 1 to be a national holiday -- Conservative Shopping Day.

Show the doubters that a day without illegal aliens is not a crisis, it’s just a good start. And spread the word. Forward this notice or send out your own. Let it be shouted, in clear unaccented English, from every mountaintop and blog: SPEND, GRINGOS, SPEND!

Lastly, be sure to make note of which businesses can still function on a day without illegal aliens, so that you can patronize them everyday for a long time. Let’s turn the day without illegal aliens into an everyday thing.

TO THE WAL-MART, COMRADES

Exactly!!

I can't understand why the INS doesn't get a whole bunch of buses, load the protestors up on them (Hey, going to the protest, here's a free ride!!) and drive the buses back over the border, oh, say for a 100 or so miles, then let everyone out!!

"TO THE WAL-MART, COMRADES"

Naturally, a shopping challenge is one I can get behind in a big way, but I won't be doing it there - I don't buy things from China, and Wal-Mart doesn't have anything that isn't.

May 1st is my daughter's birthday as well - she turns three - so we will be shopping that day, and buying not-so-massive quantities of food, drink, and cake. lol.

There is probably a local farmer's market or butcher shop near your home. Stop subsidizing the illegals...

I think it would be a very interesting promotion for growers to certify that produce was harvested with legal labor. I would pay more for it.

Wouldn't it be a hoot if all Americans refused to go to work, school or do shopping on May 2nd, as a counter protest to the Illegals? We wouldn't even need to march :)

I wonder which boycott would be more effective? Duh...

It will never happen, but I can dream..

If what was really wanted was to show America what it would be like to have a day without illegal immigrants, then they would all stay home, inside and quiet, all day.

No work, no school, no shopping, NO PROTESTS. Just NOTHING.

The trouble with that, of course, is that most people in many places in the country wouldn't notice it at all. And many people in many parts of the country would actually prefer it.

It's all so silly - the protests and the endless debating over various reforms and bills. Unless we stop the flow by building a wall, THERE IS NO IMMIGARTION POLICY.

So would I! Buying from your local farm market you'll probably get fresher produce, lower prices and no illegals deficating in the fields.

I don't expect to see any growers promoting illegal-free produce any time soon. The lawsuits from the ACLU would put them out of business.

Pass it on!

Last time that I looked, they still sold this stuff that's made here.
