He estimated the state could lose at least $54 million if all Hispanics closed their wallets and purses for a day.

As if all Hispanics would. The legal ones are plenty anti-illegal. This clown's trying to confuse "Hispanic" with "illegal immigrant".

As Rush has always taught us, do the math.

If Hispanics didn't spend a dime on one day, this guy estimates the state losses $54MM that day. So, multiply 54MM by 365 and you get $19.71 BILLION.

I find this number beyond realistic.

Thank you! I'm tired of being lumped in with the illegal crowd. What the press fails to understand is the fact that hispanics who have been here fro hundreds of years resent illegals. We support the measures the AZ Legislature wants to pass, and we ain't boycotting s#@t!!!!!

That's right. People want to make this an ethnic issue. It's not. I don't care if they are Canadians, Mexicans, Italians or whatever. Lawbreakers are lawbreakers. I can't afford to support myself let alone people from foreign countries.

I know plenty of anti-illegal Hispanics. Prop 187 was supported by at least 40% of California Hispanics at the time.
