Here in Discovery Bay we have a new upscale restaurant. My wife and I went in for dinner Thursday night last week. When we got up to the door we saw a sign "We will be closed on Monday May 1 in support for the Great American Boycott". We ordered a drink and talked about it for a minute. I then approached the owner who I happen know and asked why he would support such a boycott and added the there was nothing American about. He said he would not have any kitchen staff ... I said ... so what ... why don't you come in and just cook burgers and hotdogs for a day and keep the bar open. He just shrugged it off. To that I said ... we'll you won't be seeing us in here anymore ... as we will be participating in the "Great American Former Customer Boycott" ... lets see who you can do without .... illegal employees or customers. Then my wife went up to him ... and was NOT as nice as I was. My wife and I then drove to the local pizza parlor (who is open on Monday BTW) and had salad bar. it was more healthy and $80.00 cheaper.

Point is ... that is exactly what needs to be done to those who honor Pinko de Mayo tomorrow. Don't patronize those who employee illegals.

That's great!! Business owners need to know these kinds of things.

I happen to think we should go one step farther and boycott businesses whose employees speak to each other in foreign languages in front of, or within earshot of, clients and customers. It's stunningly rude and insulting.
