I suggest that we boycott Taco Bell and give those Mexicans a taste of their own medicine.

By radicalizing the immigration issue, the organizers of Monday's boycott...risk reversing their own goals

Their "goals" are unacceptable, period.

Taco Bell, I believe, is owned by Pepsi, not Mexico.

While Cardinal Mahony may have opposed this boycott in words.

In action, Cardinal Mahony was on the streets demanding that the Congress meet his demands "NOW".

Ms Sanchez, thank you for an insightful true accounting of the illegal aliens agenda.

Taco Bell?

Taco Bell is Mexican in name only.

In spite of the puffery given Monday's events by the MSM and the organizers, their economic impact was ZERO, and their political impact was very, very negative.

It's all about FREE STUFF from the government.

If you think Taco Bell is Mexican food, you don't know anything about Mexican food. Besides, Taco Bell is part of the PepsiCo-KFC-Pizza Hut empire. It has nothing to do with Mexico.

"I suggest that we boycott Taco Bell..."

Not a good idea; they're American owned.

Better idea -

If you're retired, buy an old truck, paint "Immigrant Patrol" on the side and park in front of Home Depot from 7am to 9am. Then ride around to various construction sites and neighborhoods the remainder of the day.

Yes I know that Taco Bell is a franchise and not have anything to do with Mexico. It was a joke. Hell the Taco Bell's I have been to, don't have any Mexicans working for them.

Good plan. Stop buying Mexican beer. Dos Equis, corona, and others. That and tequila are really their only good exports.

I don't drink beer that I have to add a lime to so it can get a little flavor. I like drinking those big cans of Colt 45 malt liquor. Just a joke.

Love the idea about the truck, you can also drive by any nursery and also chase away a few.
