Illegal immigrants boycott

[f5fstop]

Will it affect the non-immigrant consumer?

Will it affect only their neighborhoods when the local businesses close?

Will a lot of them finally get fired?

Will anyone but the illegals give a damn?

Will the liberal press report the truth, or will they hype it to make it appear that illegals crippled the economy?

How about they all leave, and if we really need them, we can alway call 'em back?

[Adam in CO]

The management company that handles my office building called a week ago to apologize for the floors not being vacummed and the trash not being removed tonight.

We thought it was pretty funny.

Was AlecW boycotting?

There will be a protest in my city scheduled 4:00pm. I plan on going with some signs of my own.

I will take pictures.

They have abunch of crap planned here today....and since we are a huge ag based economy things should be interesting today. I think the border patrol should just be out inforce today...make for an easy round-up!

[HummerNewbie]

There is supposed to be a big protest and march scheduled here today but from what they were saying on the news this morning the turn out is far lower than expected.

Drove by my local car wash this morning. It was open, but there was no-one except the (white) managers drying the cars off. I thought that was funny..

I figured they would probably be closed..

Can an illegal post on the boards today?

We got a note from our daughters school saying that if our children participated in protests it would NOT be an excused absense. It went on to say that if any protests broke out on school grounds that school staff would not be responsible for the safety of any children participating.

I would seriously doubt her school has any illegals, but if they do, it's not many. I love that the district is taking a stand against it.

Funny sidenote: Somehow my daughter got it in her head that WE are illegal!?!? 6th generation americans with family roots traced back to England and a few from Ireland. Makes you wonder what they are taught in school. She's in 3rd grade and they are requiring she learn spanish basics so that she can cope in the coming society.

Well my mailman showed up today...guess he didn't get the memo to skip work today

I wonder if they will protest the free health care and education they get in this country by not getting sick and sending their little illegals to school.

Dam Most of my property tax goes to the schools.Its ok, a good investment in the future even though I do not have kids or use any of the school services.(Also good school = high selling price )But when I know the illegals get the free schooling I pay for and they do not it makes me mad.

[h2co-pilot]

Whelp, I took a nap and missed it. Oh well. Only 200 showed but it would have been nice to show up with my .02, more calculating the taxes paid to ...... I won't get riled up.

I was talking over dinner about what a difficult term Bush has had and I am tired of talking politics right now.

[2-H2's]

Someone needs to count all the absentees from school nationwide & use it as a benchmark for illegals.

As in parents, if it's fifty percent or better??? Then I'm paying way more than my fair share for these bastids

Then confirm all of the business closings & raid their a$$es next week...

Bye, bye illegals...then start building bparker's fence.

I still don't understand why we could not use the dog catcher approach today. Just net'em. They were out there we should have grabed them, we had them. I like the wall idea but I want an electric fence like wall. ZAP!!!!!!!!! Sorry that was ugly, but I don't take it back.

How many hospitals have closed on the Mexican border due to free healthcare given to illegals?

How many schools are hurting due to having to purchase books in two languages and hire Spanish speaking teachers just to teach a normal class?

You have no insurance and walk into a hospital, and they give you trouble. Illegals go in all the time and are given service without a problem. (Not saying you won't get looked at, but from what I have heard it is a hassle.)
I have paid taxes for 40 years, and it pisses me off that my taxes are going for their education and healthcare.
Most, if not all states, have a requirement where a student from another state pays a higher tuition than an in-state student at a state college/university (I don't have a problem with that). What I have a problem with is a few states, CA for one, allow illegals to get in-state tuition, if they graduated while illegal from a CA high school. WTF. How is this fair.
I say bullets are cheap, but the body pick up would be too expensive.
If we give these worthless illegals amnesty, and not close our borders, we will be facing the same problem, 10 years from now. Our politicians are basically worthless, except for a few.
Unless Americans get out in force and march, or at the least send millions of emails/letters, etc. to our politicians, they will get what they want.
RANT over....
