In Mexico, Catholic bishops from border cities are calling on their faithful to support the boycott by not crossing into the United States that day or buying or consuming U.S.-made products or services.

I don't think 1 day is enough.... let's try no border crossings for a year to get the full effect!

How about everyday for the next 500 years?

I propose that they do a boycott on their artwork/vandalization of public property---aka 'graffiti'!!

Celebrating a commie holiday is no way to win support. If they REALLY were serious, they would sacrifice Cinco de Mayo.

Take note of every single business that closes on that day, and boycott those businesses from the next day forward. Create a list, with photos of the closed business, and post them all to a website, and publicize that website. Then, we'll see who "benefits" from a boycot, and who doesn't.

Nothing more than intimidation of the American voter.

May they boycott and abstain from all their US activities 365 days a year!

And if this boycott has no effect (and I think it will have no effect) then what's next? Violent riots?

Given the criminality of all this (like MILLIONS of illegal people here!) I suspect that a violent reaction by these people is inevitable.

Oh well, let's get it over with. The sooner they start burning cars and businesses the sooner we are likely to get actual action on this matter.

The boycott's supporters are protesting a bill passed by the House in December that would criminalize undocumented workers....

And all along I though coming to our country without documents was already illegal....

I'm officially adding Mexico to the list of countries I'm boycotting in terms of goods. Any business that I find closed in support of the boycott I will never set a foot in.

I propose they boycott the greenback as well. I'll gladly take one days worth of the $60 billion USD they ship to Mexicrap every year.

BFD, this like all boycotts will fail, but it keeps stirring the pot on both sides.

In San Diego, organizers are working out the details of a march May 1 that might take them to the border, where they would meet demonstrators from Tijuana.

I wish they would march INTO Mexico and protest their corrupt government over there.
