“When those illegals and their supporters do a boycott like this, they do a disservice to the Mexican Americans that are from here," Al Garcia says.

"“They’re exaggerating about the issue,” says Miguel Escobedo, who is a naturalized U.S. citizen.

Escobedo plans on skipping work on Monday to show his support for illegal immigrants...
"

Another assimilation success story.

I'm buying a big ticket item for my business tomorrow, I could have done it last Friday but waited because of the boycott.

I doubt this will be an issue here in NJ, knee deep in immigrants (many illegal I have no doubt) as we are. But I'll say this any business I find closed, or dysfunctional on Monday will not get my business in the future.

I can only urge all others, esp. those in the west and southwest to do the same.

Two reports to add: Some are planning to work ONE EXTRA HOUR FOR FREE FOR THEIR EMPLOYERS tomorrow.

A firm in NC has some Hispanics who do not want to join the boycott but fear that enroute to work, they will be crossing "picket lines" and be hurt by the boycotters. The Company President has offered to pick these workers up, bring them to work, and to drive them home tomorrow.

Securing our borders extends beyond illegal workers. Articles like this shift the focus away from where it should be: protecting us from ALL illegal border crossings - terrorist, drug trafficker and all other.

He's not the only pissed off American-of-Hispanic origin.

We were planning to make a fairly major purchase today but decided to put it off until tomorrow. Also, I'm buying all our birthday presents for May and June tomorrow.

Yes they do more than a "diservice" to you all and all Americans.

It is a threat to this nation!!

The socialist communist nazi must be not only deported but thrown out on their butts!

I am so tired of hearing about their ignorant march already , they will inflame all Americans tomorrow!

I hope there have been large purchases of Mexican flags made to burn in the streets tomorrow.

I guess by skipping work these people have never known the word RESPONSIBILITY!


What if everybody said Oh Ya I guess I will skip work tomorrow. I would like to stay home and see the Nascar race but I am scheduled to be somewhere and I will honor my responsibility.

Unilaterally declare American Consumer Freedom Day!

Follow me. Go out and buy something. Let's see if we can jam the stores and produce a little bit of Christmas in May.

I'm off to Wally World to get 4 tires for the pick-em-up. While I'm there I'll probably upgrade my BBQ stuff for the summer.

A nice lunch at one of our fine local restaurants and dinner with my lady this evening.

See ya!
