SABMiller, your non-American brewing company. It's now owned by South African Breweries.

A-B's not much better since it donates heavily to MALDEF.

Miller has already stated they do not support this protest, but they did support some immigration forums and other such activities.

"Miller's newfound support for the immigrants' movement comes after a backlash it suffered earlier this year. A Chicago immigration group boycotted Miller because the company had contributed money to U.S. Representative Jim Sensenbrenner. At the time Sensenbrenner was pushing a bill in Congress to crack down on illegal immigration. "

If Miller doesn't get slammed with another boycott for supporting criminals, we farging *deserve* to lose our country.

this political demonstration is being brought to you by Miller Brewing Company

When we saw this on Fox News a few days ago I told the wife that we are not buying Miller again for a long time.

This will be no sacrifice for me but the wife does like Miller Lite.

I put this on my blog... Miller Brewing Supports Illegal Immigrant's Law Breaking... -By Warner Todd Huston

I, for one, will no longer be a customer of Miller Beer. I used to like an occasional MGD (Miller Genuine Draft), but after the Chicago Tribune has reported that Miller Beer is sponsoring illegal alien rallies, it will no longer enter my household.

Miller Beer is sponsoring a pro-illegal alien march from downtown Chicago to Batavia, Illinois this weekend...

This time, as demonstrators march from Chinatown to House Speaker Dennis Hastert's (R-Ill.) Batavia office this weekend, they will have Miller Brewing Co., as a sponsor. The brewer has paid more than $30,000 for a planning convention, materials and newspaper ads publicizing the event.
Seem like just a beer company trying to sell its product? Seem like any old support of a community effort at which a capitalist company might raise its profile among a buying public? Hardly, this rally is an effort to destroy the U.S. Constitution...
But this march is no Cinco de Mayo parade. The politically charged event will promote a controversial plan to end deportations and offer legal status for all 11 million to 12 million undocumented immigrants. That creates potential pitfalls for any businesses lending support, experts say. Miller is also bankrolling informational ads in Voces Migrantes, or Migrant Voices, a community newspaper in Chicago, and has promised scholarships for area Latinos.
Miller Beer is doing its part to break down our laws and our borders and I, for one, will no longer be patronizing Miller's products. If they so love illegal aliens, let them serve ONLY illegal aliens.

... and let's hope they do it in Mexico!

Americans should BOYCOT ALL MILLER BEERS.

Oh Boy... looks like I have to give up beer all together. Coors sponsors a tour by the Mexican soccer team.

I like wine, but between the cowardly French, West coast and east coast Lib wineries, that's out.

Good old Jack Daniels, and Southern Comfort for me I guess.

'This protest brought to you by Miller beer'
Well, do not drink it, and then your innards will not protest. There are better beers. Much better.

They (the protestors) don't seem to be getting their wish for media coverage this weekend, at least not that I've seen on cable. Locally, anyone?

The only two beers I drink is Bud or a Mexican beer called dos equis. I tried Miller a long time ago and it tasted about what I would have guessed skunk piss would taste like. Nasty stuff.
