Interesting e-mail from a friend in AZ:
WASHINGTON (AFP) Immigrants' rights advocates, elated by the resounding
success of Monday's "National Day of Action," which drew the backing of
hundreds of thousands of protesters across theUnited States, now are
planning a national boycott which they hope will have an even greater
resonance.
Organizers are planning the May 1 "Great American Boycott," urging illegal
immigrants -- who cannot vote a nd who have only limited political power --
to flex their economic muscle.
Protesters are being urged to refrain from shopping, and to stay away from
school and work.
You should take a moment to let that sink in.
This is a movement orchestrated by people who entered theUS illegally, and
then want to scream about their "rights." WHAT RIGHTS?
YOU DON'T EVEN BELONG HERE!
Let's take a look at some of the many benefits that illegal aliens have
blessed our great country with: Street gangs, graffitti, drugs, skyrocketing
healthcare, depreciation of property value, illiteracy.
The list could go on. What they actually have to offer (cheap labor) pales
to what they have given our country to deal with. I'll take expensive
vegetables over expensive healthcare any day!
And now, like terrorists, they are going to attack our economy -- the one
entity that makes our nation stand out from all the others. The backbone of
our nation. The country they came to like locusts so they could reap the
benefits is now the focus of their boycott. You've seen it on TV: Marching
on our American streets waving their Mexican flags, boldly showing that they
can be more racist than who they accuse of, and yet the obvious is totally
oblivious to them......
IF YOU'VE GOT IT SO BAD HERE, THEN LEAVE!!!
To all the real Americans, you can do one small thing onMay 1st, 2006.
It won't be racist, nor will it be violent. It will not be boastful,
arrogant, selfish, nor distasteful. It will not be any of those things that
our "guests" have already displayed. What it will do is nullify a movement.
All you have to do is buy something on May 1st. Make up for what they will
try to take away. It doesn't have to be a new car or house (unless you were
already planning on getting one). It simply needs to be a day of trading.
Hold off grocery buying until May 1st.
Take your wife out to eat that night.
Get the kids pizza, hamburgers, whatever!
Make several trips to the convenience store.
Buy your meals at work.
Fill up your tank.
Shop for clothes, furniture, outdoor equ ipment.
If it needs to be bought, BUY IT MAY 1st!
Those are just a few suggestions. We're not asking you to spend your
inheritance that day, but just to spend more than you normally would.
Even if it's only a few dollars, this will help soften the blow that the
Mexicans will try to inflict on our economy that day. It sounds trivial at
first, but if this idea gets around, what the Mexicans set out to do will
fail.
NOW COMES THE HARD PART:
This email will not self-destruct if you don't send it to someone.
It will not cause bad luck, nor will it make you impotent.
It will not do some trick or show a cute little animation if you send it to
"X" amount of people.
You will not get paid for doing it.
It will not spread the message though, if it just gets deleted.
Forward at will.....
I'm gonna spend money before work, at break and lunch, may
even take the wife out to dinner :)
