This should be a list of who is planning to close their business on Monday, May 1 in response of the Great American Boycott. We should compile it and boycott them ourselves if possible!
Remember to go shopping or work overtime on May 1!
You're quite welcome.
I'm sure taking notes here in nashville....even if I have to give up my mole poblado
Forgive me, as you were marking May Day as innocent. My parents taught me that May Day was co-opted by the communist. The demonstrations held today are funded by the communists. I was merely pointing out that this is nothing more than a typical front. Wouldn't be surprised there is face painting for the children as they hold placards saying, "DON'T TAKE MY DADDY AWAY."
ColdHeat was the other intended receiver of the post.
VIVA RECONQUISTA! VIVA MEChA! VIVA SALSA CON HUEVOS!
Sounds delicious Mama, I'll try it!
btw....congrats for staying in sidebar this long...a record of late for an illegals thread
No problem. As an alum, I've heard way too many "chicken jokes", so I may be just a wee bit sensitive on the subject.
Shun the boycott BUMP
Greet the clerks with "Season's Greetings and Happy Holidays". That ought to have them scratching their heads.
Holidaze this week include Communist May Day (May 1), Isreal's Independence Day (May 3), National Day Of Prayer (May 4), and Cinco de Maio (Mayo 5). While you may not "personally" embrace any/all of these holidays, it is PC to strip them of their name and just refer to this as a holiday season.
Usually the night before would be spent making our Maybaskets which would consist of anything from construction paper cones to styrofoam cups decorated with spring-themed stickers. Then we'd use a pipecleaner as the basket handle, and fill it with candy and popcorn.
We'd leave the baskets on our friends' doorsteps, ring the bell and run!
Ahhh those were the days!
They are trying to screw with the Bush economy.
Old concept too. I remember in my economics class, some decades old protest plan to trigger a run on banks by getting many people to withdraw their money all on the same day.
The Communists never give up.
No, it is a demonstration against some very stupid reactionary hyperbole emanating from various groups who are not normally aligned and the "right" has jumped into it with both feet, as they did with Schiavo, Miers, social security and the ports deal.
It makes us all look stupid, and has destroyed the base of the party which will certainly cause reversals at the polls.
Secondly, it simply interlocks with what is normally a day of parties and back yard BBQ's and much of the rest of the country, even without the issue.....
I find the verbal hyperbole and invectives issued against May Day and Mexicans to be stupid, dangerous and apparently a continuation of what is more knee jerking from the right wing. (a once fairly considerate and non-reactionary group of people)
So now you have justified all the silly and debasing things that the left alway tars us with, and this is not a good day, or a good 2 years for the Republican Party as a direct result.
The "Backlash" will certainly be forthcoming and I can't think of a more deserving group of outofcontrol politically ignorant conservatives..
This is not what we are about.
I think you're right. I was looking at info thats older and the owner of Taco bell is American. The parent company may be Pepsi, but I dont know if they have a separate President.
But I think boycotting companies that hire illegals is a catch-22. IMO giving them a BOOM of business on the day their workers fail to show will send a real message.
But companies like Taco Bell don't hire illegal aliens, do they?
I don't blame you:)
Those I also heard on the news this morning.
Just heard of WBAP (Dallas) that Tyson's plants and *some* Purdue Farms plants are closed today.
Two more names for MY boycott list.
Har, Har, Har!
Communists under the woodpile?
I have not heard that one for at least a generation.
If I don't make tacos at home, that is where I always go. I'm not boycotting Mexican culture in general, but I am boycotting anything related to illegals.
Anyone notice the U.N. flags being waved by illegals in Homestead Florida?
The GOP base wants borders enforced. The majority of Americans want the unchecked reconquista to end. It's a vocal minority that wish to make an issue and demonstrate. It's a vocal minority that wants to ignore constitutionally mandated rules on enforcement of US sovereignty. It's a vocal minority that is using spin to call all of us racists (a joke to say the least).
Am I talking to a WH operative here? George is that you?
