San Francisco Weighs Sweeping Boycott of Arizona Over Illegal Immigration Law April 27, 2010

San Francisco officials on Tuesday will consider a sweeping boycott of Arizona in the wake of that state's passage of tough anti-illegal-immigration measures. A resolution before the Board of Supervisors calls on the city to cancel contracts with companies based in Arizona and halt business ties between city government and the state.

Meanwhile, San Francisco City Atty. Dennis Herrera said he was already looking into whether contracts with Arizona could be legally severed without penalty.

The proposal is backed by Supervisor David Campos.

Given that AZ could probably purchase CA for pennies on the (worthless) dollar, who gives a smelly Obama about what gaytown does?

No doubt Arizonans will be saddened that they no longer receive visits from San Fransickies shrieking and prancing about in their coffee houses.

“Send all the illegals to SF.”

I think that is part of Arizon’s master plan.

I’d boycott San Fran, if they made anything.

SF should send busses down to the border and bring all the illegals to SF.

OF COURSE the existing contracts can be severed “legally without consequences”.

The whole point is San Francisco cares two Goldman Sachs transactions about what is the law.

Why the heck can’t San Franciscans just go down there and push the conservative Arizonans the hell out of the country? At least imprison them.

I hope Arizona can break some contracts that will do economic damage to San Francisco.

The outrageousness of the left, now we have American cities boycotting states in their own country. You tell me what they will stop at, because they won’t.

cool - maybe all conservative and marxist states could in the near future decide to boycott each other? That would be a great first step as far as I’m concerned.

FReepers join me in boycotting the anti-American and unpatriotic city of San Francisco!

Arizona SB 1070 just writes into Arizona law what is already in Federal law. So if anyone speaks out against the Arizona law, then they are speaking out against Federal law, which means they are being anti-American and unpatriotic.

Officials from a city in one state seeking to punish another state for that state’s policies? This is just weird.
