The Boycott Looms
It is all over the t.v., the blogosphere is buzzing with it, the radio and newpapers are all telling of the Great American Boycott planned for tomorrow. The illegal immigrants and many other groups are planning to cripple the United States in order to scare up Amnesty for illegal aliens. I'm sure this is going to be huge. Millions will attend marches and rallies all across America. Some figures even estimate tens of millions. I still wonder at the intentions of any group of people trying to cripple the country they claim to want to be a part of.
Nick Leiber of Business Week has an interesting article about the boycott, in which he fails to use the term 'illegal' even once. He does say undocumented workers one time, but mostly he refers to the illegal aliens simply as immigrants. His article's headline says: MAY DAY PROTEST GARNERS SUPPORT The article itself seems to support the boycott.
La Ventanita at Wall Street Cafe has a great idea for May 1st.
"All Americans who support LEGAL immigration but demand that all immigrants RESPECT our law are asked to act on May 1st. Wear RED or BLUE that day (They will be wearing white), and go SHOPPING.If you have to grocery shop, make it May 1st. Need gas in your car? Fill it up May 1st. Buy Mother's Day gifts, buy summer clothes, buy that new car you've been thinking about, whatever you need, but BUY May 1st.American citizens outnumber illegal immigrants, and we MUST make ourselves heard. Wear red or blue to show your pride in your country, and your opposition to weak border and amnesty legislation. And GO SHOPPING! Let's make May 1st a day to remember, and remind Congress that the illegal immigrants can't vote. We can. And we will."

For those of you who don't know, the communist party is a huge supporter of the May 1st boycott. No big surprise there. The communist party will support any attempt to cripple our economy and disrupt major cities. You can check out the progressive labor party (communist party) site here and the socialist party site here.
I found many other great articles about the May Day boycott. Here are links for you:

Just remember, 11 million illegal may seem like a huge group of people, but we are still the majority. The majority of us are going to work, or school tomorrow. The majority of us support immigration, but not illegal immigration. We would rather see the laws upheld, not trampled on.
Freedom should be a right enjoyed by all people, but not something that is blackmailed from Congress with scare tactics.
