May 1st boycott

Quoting wendybeth:"I also wonder how many of the wealthy had to do things for themselves today?" Ah, yeah.

I saw a man on the news who was pulling a wagon with a big sign on it saying he was against illegal immigration and that we need to take care of our problem.

The news reporter asked him if he felt as if he were wearing one of those 'Kick Me' signs on his back? He said yes but he also hoped he was kicking them back, making them think.

He said that these people {the immigrants} are paid low wages and they have no rights, they are doing jobs no one will do and for what? {and I say no one will do because the companies get away with paying them nothing...}He said they are our new slaves. Is that worth fighting for?

And, to me, the idea of giving them amnesty~aren't there 11 million of them? And aren't they saying {mostly} Viva Mexico? But they are here.

I think we are strapped as it is. And, they are illegal. So...we are to give them amnesty when they are doing an illegal act? Perpetuating the cycle?

Yes, actually, I think most of us are from other countries. But, I think we have arrived here legally.

Well...right?

And I just caught a bit on the news that in Oceanside there is a big riot {what I gathered, maybe too harsh} going on and police are going up there from Coronado, National City and Imperial Beach {I think the last} to help. I believe that Oceanside has more gangs than down here. I could be wrong.
