Nothing "Gringo"?

Where is the outrage? Where is the PC police? Surely they will start demanding apologies and reparations for such derogatory terms like "gringo" being used.

Oh, that's right, it's ok to insult and bad mouth the eeeevil white Americans. Silly me. Now if we organized a "Nothing Beaner" boycott you can bet your @$$ that the sensitivity gestapo would be all over it.

I'm thinking that good ole American made tools will be a nice purchase for the Great American capitalist pig shopping spree. Then I can use those tools to do one of those jobs Americans won't do.

Personally, I think those of us who are here legally (whether immigrant or native born) and employed should absent ourselves from work on Cinco de Mayo and show what it really looks like when Americans don't want to do their jobs.

Already have my May 1st shopping list on the fridge. It's going to be a lovely day without having to dodge a few dozen illegals' wild kids as they're running up and down the aisles. Ahhhh, a lovely day.

"The American Chamber of Commerce in Mexico". One of the fences biggest enemies and supporters of LET THEM COME.

If they can do this while they are illegal, wait until you see how demanding they can be after they've been legitimized through amnesty.

These illegals are natural communists and they are just cutting their teeth with this early bit of attempted economic blackmail.

Calling all Mexicans! Don't listen to this garbage! Show Americans who makes this country run on May 1 and don't show up for work and don't buy American. Let them know who has economic muscle.

I really do wish they would boycott us. I mean really boycott. As in, stop coming here and leaching off of us, type of boycott. However I huighly doubt that a "boycott" will keep them from getting their backs wet on 5/1.

Don't be silly, only white people can be racists. In fact, pieces of Mexican culture are quite openly racist against blacks, whites, and even darker-skinned hispanics at times, but it's all ok because only white people can be racists.
