This is my first vanity post, so be nice!

I just heard on FoxNews that the meat packing company "Tyson" will be closing Monday to allow their employees so march in the protest on May 1st, whihc is this coming Monday. Are they an American company? They seem to forget they it's "Americans that purchase their product and keep them in business.... I also left them an email on thier website stating my feelings on them supporting this protest march...

Okay, I feel better now..... Thank you! Pleasse also go to the Tyson website and leave them an email as to how you feel....

Actually, if you read the information on this, they are being 'forced' to because so many people will be off work they cannot keep the plants open:

Then they should have a plan for disciplining their employees who breach company policy and should tell us about that plan. Otherwise, my plan is to not purchase any more of their products.

BTW.. Carolina Turkey imports and employs a massive amount of illegals.. not sure what their work schedule is for Monday.

I don't think we should blindly punish Tyson until we have more information on their motivation. It sounds as though they are a victim of the protests.

There will be a lot of citizens who'll be victims of this influx. This is designed to hurt the American people and force them to obey the orders of the radical left wing illegal immigrants.

I haven't bought Tyson Clinton Chicken in years.

I guess the problem I have is assuming that just because people take off for the protest, they are illegal.

Maybe my concern doesn't apply to Tyson as I didn't know they are known to hire illegals, but I do have a problem with blindly punishing businesses who are forced to close because of the protests.. especially those who don't hire illegals, just dumb ass employees joining the protest..

May first is of course, May Day, the biggest holiday on the communist calendar. We have to allow all those good commies to go to the rallies and worship their god, after all.

Like others who posted above, my family has not bought Tyson since the 90's when they were donating heavily to Clinton's presidential campaign.

Speaking of Slick Willie, isn't he a friend of Tyson? Or is it Hitlery?

[isrul]

Yeah, but he tried to better himself while in jail by getting his GED. I guess that means he can now make more money than he used to. At least that's what they say on PSA's about the value of a GED. Sorry. This illegal alien stuff is getting so depressing, I just had to digress, if only briefly.

Tyson was part of the funneling and washing money to the clintons.
I've avoided their products whenever possible.

They're foreign invaders committing anarchy against American citizens.

What are our brave governmental representatives doing to stop the invasion? Talking surrender, of course.

I would eat dog food before I would eat anything touched by Tyson.

One other little fact. A beef plant was closed due to an e coli outbreak.

This happened during slick willie's term. Tyson bought out the plant at fire sale prices.

[im4eagles]

For those of you that have a short memory, Tyson is tight with the Clintons. I havn't bought anything from Tyson's Food since Billdoe was in office.

It would be nice if some of these businesses that use illegals were confiscated by the govt. and auctioned of to law abiding American citizens who care more about the country than the bottom line. with the economy being so good, I'm sure buyers wouldn't be hard to find.

[RushCrush]

Doh! Hubby is from Storm Lake! Wonder if he's aware of the Clintoon/Tyson connection!

[az wildkitten]

Me too. I would gladly pay more for any other brand to keep from enriching any FOB
