I had no problem getting lunch here in Southern California (El Segundo/Hawthorne area). Went to Big Lots (a discount store like .99 cent stores) and the black female checker stated "it's easy shopping today isn't it?" I replied "it sure is and it's very nice without all the long lines." We got to talking and she does not agree with illegals coming into this country either and her mom watches FoxNews (surprise!) instead of the Alphabet Soup News.

We have one guy who called out from our department and most of us are a bit disgusted, but not surprised. Many of our employees are veterans (Navy and Air Force) and are sickened by the Spanish version of our National Anthem.

I sent a nice angry letter to Ralphs Grocery Stores and followed up today by mailing my Ralphs "card" and keychain mini-card asking them to "close my account."

I sent $150 to Jim Gilchrist of the Minutemen and spent $85.00 at Big Lots. Still have to gas up two cars after work and hit Wal Mart for incidentals that I've been waiting to purchase. John and Ken are paying people back for their shopping fees every 1/2 hour, up to $600+ bucks.

After work I'm taking Mom and son out for dinner if there's time. Not to Denny's though! I'm done with Denny's after I called them this morning and the representative confirmed that they are supporting their employees at the protest. I told her "thank you, you just lost a customer." She said "OK, that's fine," as I hung up. I wonder how many others called and said the same thing to her.

Did you call corporate or one of the restaurants? If you called corporate and they gave you a "OK, that's fine" type response then I really have to question their customer relations department.

My wife said she had the most pleasant shopping experience today at Wal Mart . There was a very nice vibe, store was crowded with shoppers and aisles not blocked by entire Mexican families , all speaking Spanish and refusing to budge.
And we live in a non border state.
