"Mexican workers hold signs reading 'Don't Buy Gringo Products. Long live the Boycott,' as they demonstrate in Mexico City, Friday April 28, 2006. A demonstration Friday by thousands of Mexican workers to promote union solidarity turned into a protest against America's vast influence on the nation's economy, with many protesters saying they will take part in a boycott of all things 'gringo' next week.

Just for that, I'm going to celebrate "Not One Damn Inch Of Tuck And Roll" Day!
And who really cares? Let me run look it up in the New England Journal of Who Gives a Rat's a$$.
"Halt the repression of the Fox government?!?!?" LOL! These idiots don't know what repression is - if a Hugo Chavez ally ever comes to power, they are going to find out the hard way.
"a protest against America's vast influence on the nation's economy"
They're really confused.
Can you imagine the reaction if Americans were in the streets with signs that read, "Don't Support Wetbacks" ?
NO VACATIONS IN MEXICO!
The guy in green looks like he needs to take part in a few more protest marches..
Is AP plagerizing the ONION?
yeah, like they despise all the dollars the wetbax are sending southward?
No shopping at BIG LOTS and the DOLLAR STORE today. Of course that means the Chinese will suffer too, but hey...
That's right morons, bite the hand.....
Screw Mexico and Mexicans.
I wouldn't buy any of their worthless, third-world products on a bet. (And I stay away from their produce for sanitary reasons.)
Let us boycott vacationing in Mexico. That will really get Fox's attention.
What happens when there is no sigificant result?
Heck, that boycott will be easy. We don't make anything in this country anymore, and we certainly don't export anything to Mexico.
Navigate this site and see all the companies and products that Gringos can boycott made in Mexico. Maybe if the Gingos stop buying the products, the Mexican legislature will get the point:

The site is a bit out of date, but the usual suspects are still producing in Mexico. I'm sure Ford motor wants a boycott of its maquiladora on top of its bad press...
How do they expect to get around without their Chevys with dingle-ball-trim interiors?
Um.....yeah.... sure.
Boycot the Gringo, huh?
That'll sure stimulate your economy.
And the paragon of 400 years of advanced Mexican science and technology is.....?
Mud bricks and velvet Elvis paintings.
Just thinking outside the box: If they want to come here so badly, and we want to buy their oil, and our companies want to manufacture there because of the low wage rate, why don't we consider just annexing Mexico into the US. Then they wouldn't be illegal aliens, and they wouldn't have to worry about taking back the SW US.
Just a news note...just heard on a Chicago TV station (Fox) that PepsiCo America is allowing workers off today to support the illegal alien invasion.
We need a thread to post names of supporters of this sham.
BOYCOTT PEPSICO.
These ignorant fools don't even know there origins of the term "Gringo".
We need a list of all companies who support the boycott..and then we need to permanently boycott them!
"PepsiCo"
Pee-water. I don't drink it anyway.
To Whom It May Concern:
Today, May 1, 2006, has been declared a day of protest by illegal aliens of our country's immigration policies. Accordingly, they are leaving work to march and protest the freest nation on the planet.
I have been made aware of the fact that Pepsico has stated their position to allow their workers to leave work to participate in this travesty.
This is to advise you that thanks to your comprehensive website, I now know exactly what products are produced by your conglomeration and my family will no longer purchase any of your products.
You have chosen sides in the battle for America. You have chosen poorly. Now you will pay for this choice. I will be passing this on to my fellow citizens and they will pass it along to others. Before long, you will understand the concept of a "chain reaction".
Respectfully,
Shun the boycott BUMP
Greet the clerks with "Season's Greetings and Happy Holidays". That ought to have them scratching their heads.
Holidaze this week include Communist May Day (May 1), Isreal's Independence Day (May 3), National Day Of Prayer (May 4), and Cinco de Maio (Mayo 5). While you may not "personally" embrace any/all of these holidays, it is PC to strip them of their name/significance and just refer to this as a holiday season.
Good. Let the Mexicans protest. Maybe it'll inspire them to protest their corrupt government and clean it up. That is the right and responsibility of citizens in any country. For if they don't utilize that right, they will soon lose it, just as Cuba lost their rights to the lovely Castro...
There was a flag burning, Mexican flags this time.
