Immigrant Protests Aim to ‘Shut Down Cities’ on May 1
By: Lisa On: Apr/28/06 - 8 Comments
May 1 immigrant boycott aims to “close” US cities.
Pro-immigration activists say a national boycott and marches planned for May 1 will flood America’s streets with millions of Latinos to demand amnesty for illegal immigrants and shake the ground under Congress as it debates reform.
…
“There will be 2 to 3 million people hitting the streets in Los Angeles alone. We’re going to close down Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Tucson, Phoenix, Fresno,” said Jorge Rodriguez, a union official who helped organize earlier rallies credited with rattling Congress as it weighs the issue.
Where is the INS when you really need ‘em?

All American citizens should boycott immigrant business’s.

I ask again: Will they not go into welfare offices seeking benefits? Will they not use/abuse County hiospital emergency rooms? Will they refrain from committing any crimes on Monday? Just what does their boycott entail? If they’re really going to show us what life without them would be like, seems like they need to address all aspects.

On May 1, I will be doing everything I can to support the U.S. economy. I will spend money at stores; I will fill up my vehs. I may even buy an expensive piece of business eqpt.
While I am at it, I’ll contribute to Global Warming. I’ll fire up the BBQ and grill some steaks for dinner. I’ll hitch up the truck to my eqpt trailer and haul some eqpt to the building I am leasing starting May 1. Whatever I can do, I will.
This should really annoy the Left…:razz:
