San Francisco weighs sweeping boycott of Arizona
La Times Now ^ | 4/27/2010 | unknown

Posted on 04/28/2010 8:19:27 AM PDT by Grampa Dave

San Francisco officials on Tuesday will consider a sweeping boycott of Arizona in the wake of that state's passage of tough anti-illegal-immigration measures.

A resolution before the Board of Supervisors calls on the city to cancel contracts with companies based in Arizona and halt business ties between city government and the state.

As well as patronizing AZ businesses, everyone who is planning a road trip/vacation this year, make it AZ and see their MANY National Parks!

Whatever San Franciscans boycott or dislike is whatever I respect, support and applaud.

There are plenty of great chocolates. Part of the fun of premium foods though is that they’re all different, so when the mood is for Ghiradelli then Ah Cacao, Black Mountain, Divine, or Venchi just won’t cut it. I don’t believe in boycotts that punish me more than them, I spend maybe $50 a year on Ghiradelli tops, they won’t miss that, but on those days when I want some Ghiradelli I’ll miss them. Boycotts tend to be a lot of work with little reward. Like SF is about to prove, they’re going to have to weasel their way out of a bunch of contracts, spend extra on other bidders, and meanwhile we in AZ won’t be changing our law and our companies will find other customers.

Ghiradelli isn’t “all that”, hun.

Rademaker, Droste, Bonnat and Godiva are all much better then Ghiradelli. A Toblerone bar is tastier and cheaper then anything Ghiradelli puts out, too.

Levi Strauss has been active in progressive causes for years. I wouldn’t consider buying a pair of Levi’s for any reason.

They also run really raunchy commercials, such as “First time” with a man and woman unbuttoning their jeans. And of course this one, which I was amazed to see. I guess their marketing dept thought the rest of the country as depraved as their own town.

Ghiradelli is tasty, and easy to find. Other than Toblerone those others you mentioned are excellent too, I got sick of Toblers in high school.

Thanks for posting this. There are incredible chocolates from other countries and America without going to Gay Chocolate.

We have not bought a G bar for years and haven’t missed them!

Too bad that we supply Los Angeles with Colorado River water instead of San Francisco. We could just cut their water off.

Levi Strauss has been controlled by liberals and the gay agenda pushers for well over a decade.

They push the liberal and gay agendas and run the ads like you cited.

Great idea. One way ticket. In fact AZ should build a bus terminal right on the border. Free one way tickets to San Francisco. Also, give them spanish literature how to apply for California welfare & health care. Plus don’t they pay their bums , sorry I mean homeless people, money to live there.
Can you imagine the mess you could create in SF just by sending in another 10,000 illegals each month.

Absolutely, go to Arizona for vacations instead of Gay Frisco. It is a beautiful state.

“I wish Arizona could declare war on San Fransicko!”

As Arizona’s allies in the ongoing fight against illegal crimes, we can blockade and boycott Gay Fransicko!
