RENO, Nev. (AP) - A group of Hispanic people in Reno have called for a three-day boycott of all businesses in northern Nevada after a federal raid in which 54 suspected illegal workers were arrested. The group of about 60 people also called for a strike by all Hispanic workers on Wednesday, the final day of the boycott, and for a rally and a march for Reno's federal courthouse in support of those arrested. "Huelga! Huelga! Huelga!" the group chanted as it stood and applauded near the end of a meeting Saturday at El Cordero de Dios Assemblies of God Church in Reno. Huelga is Spanish for "strike."

What’s the Spanish word for impotence?
BUMP
To achieve citizenship after taking the proper steps, makes it more meaningful, exciting, celebratory and most of all, those who do are so grateful. It makes me sick to see all those who are from other countries (such as Greece..I know of a family who took the proper steps)who worked hard to attain their new citizenship, IGNORED......I want to know what their opinions are wrt:the so called protests.
:)
Lottery, free jewelry.....send the idea to our congress critters. ;-D
ONE arrest in ONE protest or demonstration will be the end of ALL protests.
The illegals sense of entitlement is beyond belief.
Yep, we are ENTITLED to that one arrest that will be the mother of all arrests.
You know plenty of people who support it but none who will admit to it.
They are the ones who do business with known employers of illegals just to save a buck. They are the ones who agree with Fred Thompson when he claims that it's "unrealistic" to deport the millions who are here and when he further claims that those millions will somehow deport themselves back to a country that HAS NO JOBS OR FREE SOCIAL SERVICES as soon as we impose enough penalties on their American employers here. There are plenty of people right here in this forum who are just as eager as Bush is to reward illegal immigration, but not one of them will admit it.
At McDonald's!
Can't imagine eating that crud, then finding out illegal aliens are preparing it?
Gag!
Why don’t they boycott us from Mexico we’ll be sorry then.
Yes, our country is invaded and sold out.
Good comment.
