Illegals Want To Boycott, Remove Dobbs; I Suggest It's Our Turn
April 17 2006 | Blogbat

Posted on 04/16/2006 11:19:36 PM PDT by blogbat

I don't normally do things like this, but I feel as if something organized must be started so that there might be an effective, organized campaign to stand up and say no to the pro-illegal, pro-sellout, pro-amnesty consortium.

Below are a three suggestions:

As most have probably read, the illegals plan to boycott US businesses in what essentially is no less than an act of foreign economic terrorism designed to force our government into submission to their demands.

And of course unfortunately, there are plenty of weak-kneed in the senate who've grown unresponsive to our voice, ready to surrender to the barbarians at the gate in order that the perks from their business friends keep coming.

And now we've heard the illegals are going to ply their pressure toward patriotic voices such as Lou Dobbs, no doubt more to come, in an effort to silence America during her mugging.

Now perhaps this has been discussed before, but if I may suggest, I believe the most effective pressure Americans can apply is not so much toward our tone-deaf politicians at the moment (though it is inarguably important) as it is the businesses that hire and cater to illegal aliens.

So I'd like to suggest two practical things and one symbolic each of us can do right now in our communities:

1. We can begin boycotts or limited boycotts of illegal-friendly businesses, calling them and letting them know what we are doing. 2. and we can report businesses we know hire illegals to ICE: 866/347.2423 3. Remember those flags we had on our cars and wore on our clothing right after September 11? I think we can make a statement of solidarity and patriotism by bringing those back too. It reminds us that we are the majority and we’re standing up for our country. I’m already beginning to see some of this where I live and I can’t begin to tell you how good it is see it.

By beginning a boycott (or in the very least in cases of necessity, a limited boycott), we will be applying the leverage where it's most likely to move the entire stone. And by silencing pro-illegal big business, I can, through the miracle of human nature, guarantee we'll have a more responsive Capitol Hill.

The reality is that this problem will not go away until the illegals and big business win or we who are patriotic Americans win. I vote for us as well as for our progeny.

You are right, we won't use the word "boycott" we should just notify cnn we will contact their advertisers and tell them we don't appreciate them silencing an Amereican Patriot.

I was guilty of using that word and than corrected my post.
Thanks for stating the obvious.

We MUST do everything we possibly can to have our voices heard. REMEMBER:

1 - The Internet is more powerful than the Socialist Sword

2 - Our most powerful weapon is PRAYER. PRAY PRAY PRAY for God's mercy on our country. For his help to defeat our enemies both domestic and foreign. This is one weapon the socialist, athiests don't understand and underestimate.

I plan to drive around my city and take names of businesses closed on May 1st. On May 2nd, I will call to inquire as to the reason the business was closed. If I am told that it has anything whatsoever to do with the boycott, whether in support or otherwise, I will advise them that I will NOT do business with them.

I live in FLOC/AFL-CIO territory, Toledo Ohio. They represent 10,000 migrant workers and the county accepts the Mexican I.D. card. It is impossible to know who is and isn't legal and FLOC leadership has stated that NW Ohio has 'thousands and thousands' of 'undocumented workers'.

--Remember hearing in history class how the South used the argument that Slavery was needed for the economic development of the country.... not then, not now.

We are paying and will pay in the future if we allow this to happen.

WE MUST FIGHT LIKE WE'VE NEVER FOUGHT BEFORE.

I agree, not only do I spread the word against illegals but I PRAY and we all Pray for the Mercy of our Lord to Bless this great nation , to bless our President and to open his eyes of understanding, and for our politicians to gain wisdom.

I think I was thinking of smaller flags. I'm going to buy and send today so will have more cost analysis later.

You mean the ones that are made in China?

Lou Dobbs is public enemy number one to the Illegals plan for amnesty.

Lou sends the results of his nightly Polls to Washington, and for that alone, they want him gone.

While trying to find out if there are protests (not just boycotts) planned for May 1st in my neighborhood, I just came across this website: http://www.nohr4437.org/

According to their information, we aren't just talking a few restaurant closings along the border. They have posted closings:


Port of Los Angeles
Date: May 1
La Collectiva del Troqueros del Puerto
E-Mail: ejnevarez@sbcglobal.net


12,000 Troqueros working the Port and local rails will shut down and congregate at Banning Park. Solidarity from most other Ports in the nation expected.



and this must be the language they use to indoctrinate our young people. (note the call for NO american flags!):

On May 1st we are calling on students and workers of all races to join in a day of resistance. We call on those with documents and those without to stand together in solidarity. Together we will walk out of our schools. The schools where we are trained how to be obedient, how to follow orders, and how to become docile sheep. We will walk out of our jobs. The jobs that rob and exploit us, the jobs with racist bosses, jobs where our hard work goes to make them rich. We will walk out against the racist legislation in Washington, against the racist minutemen, against the entire racist capitalist system that exploits all workers and students.

We will walk out against the war that preys on people of color and the poor, where our sons and daughters, sisters and brothers are dying in a fight that is not even theirs. We will walk out for the hundreds of innocent people murdered by the LAPD in the streets of LA, for every cop who has pulled over a kid just cause s/he is black or brown, for every swing of that racist baton, we will walk out. We will walk out in defiance of the false boarders that divide us from our friends and family, and the laws that criminalize our very existence. We will walk out and just like on March 25th , the streets will be ours. The city will stop. We will walk out and our voices will be heard!

*Wear black in solidarity with all the immigrants being detained in US prisons and the thousands who have died crossing the border
*Please no American flags
*More details to be announced

No Boarders! No Bosses!
Si Se Puede!

- If someone asks about the flag you wave, tell the person you carry it to express cultural and ethnic pride, not to show allegiance to any government.
- Be wary of any informational forum held by police, schools, or government agencies. They want to mislead you with political jargon and empty promises. Don't fall for it!


Sorry to get off topic, just wanted you all to know what we are up against, if you don't already! Perhaps there should be a thread just for updates to this kind of information.

"Perhaps a better idea would be to make sure to shop on May 1st when the illegals are promoting a NO SHOPPING DAY to show us how powerful they are."

A reallly great idea there.

And these anti-war, anti-America, si se puede folks are the people John McCain, Ted Kennedy, and George W. Bush think are the model after which all wonderful, honest and beautiful people should follow.

 

I love it, by the way, how those who are not citizens and have no right to be here (or even Liberals) call the War on Terrorism war of hate against “people of color”, yet forgetting the brutal acts against same we are preventing by being there. Not to mention the fact our soldiers are providing for the first-ever protection of women’s rights in those countries. But then again, I suppose there is a good number among illegals who actually believe women should constantly remain barefoot and pregnant.

 

And then I also fell in love with the cranially challenged statement about LA cops murdering innocents. Strangely enough, LA has so many convictions for murder...95% of those convicted illegal alien, and many of those against other illegal aliens.

 

To paraphrase Rhett Butler, these Anti-America protestors need deporting and by someone who knows how. Theirs are the assertions only Dan Rather could love.

This is great. Ive been planning on doing the same thing. I recently bought a house and when they come to do the one year repairs I am going to insist that no illegals are allowed on the property. If I suspect that anyone on the crew is illegal I will contact Immigration services and the police (trespassing).

Great the other side is branching out!

INVASION USA - Illegal-alien activists target Lou Dobbs 'Ax AOL' campaign designed to pressure CNN parent company to fire newsman- While Dobbs has become an almost legendary hero to Americans who feel abandoned by their government on the illegal alien issue, he is being vilified in many other quarters.

NOTE: The Southern Poverty Law Center, another radical group, is also attacking Dobbs – claiming his reports on immigration fail to acknowledge anti-Hispanic racism is at the root of concerns about illegal immigration.

AND: Indian-Americans have also launched their own petition to get Dobbs dumped.

Even someone Dobbs has had on his show as a guest commentator is getting into the act of calling for his firing by CNN. Enrique Morones, an activist from Southern California, has reportedly written a letter to the president of CNN calling for Dobbs' head.
