I had a choice to shop in Calf. or Arizona. I put off shopping til I got to Arizona.

Boycott Hollywood. Is it not about time?

in Whole Foods , i stopped buying produce and other items from California and Mexico. Went for local (NY) or elsewhere instead...

Hi,

As a Native Californian, and Native resident of San Francisco, I cannot blame anyone angry at my state. Just FYI - if any of the BS the Pelosicrats do here in California was put to a vote -- they would most likely fail. Unfortunately, the powers here have long supported the Mexicanization of California -- hard to get a job here now if you do not speak Spanish first, Mexican Flags fly everywhere. But understand that here in my beautiful San Francisco 8 out of 10 traffic accidents are caused by uninsured illegal aliens who have no license and no insurance -- so that is payback #1. Understand that California has the largest share of illegal aliens -- more than any other state - and San Francisco with its amnesty for illegals has the most for any community except LA. But California has an U3 Unemployment rate of 13% now and a U6 (long term unemployed deemed "no longer looking for work whether they are or not) of 23% -- that is 1 in 4 voters do NOT have full time jobs but need full time work....that is payback #2. California is riddled with crime, feces and urine on our sidewalks, Latino drug dealer wars, murders are rampant, rapes are up, home breakins common....that is payback #3. California has many billionaires and movie stars and new riche elite living it up like the 1920s...but we have more poor than any other state, a dismantled education system, a failing economy, a nearly bankrupt treasury, and many large tent cities with names like Bushville and Obamaville that grow daily...that is payback #4.

I understand your anger, but pray for us, most Californians do not want what is happening to our state. But like most American peasants we lost our voice more than other states. I have been fighting illegal aliens for years and standing up to the hate mongering anti American La Raza. So have many Californians. We do not deserve these problems -- our federal government and politicians are the devils that caused this. They allow illegal aliens in 3 million made citizens in 1986, then 8 million in January 2001 and now 23 million illegals on top of 40 million legal immigrants! My God no one state can withstand this invasion. This is a national catastrophe, and as a nation we must pull together. Many cities in Texas (Austin!) and other border states are also boycotting Arizona. I for one will never boycott another state of this Union. We need a cohesive, unified and national approach to this problem. We need not fight each other -- the real enemy is red white and green... and American tycoons and politicians. May God curse them.

Amen, MarkB.
Thanks for your words and welcome to ALIPAC.

Well that's not a good idea in my book. Think about this, stop buying California produce..that leaves you to buy Mexican, fruit and vegetables, Chilean, and Guatemalan produce just to name a few....I would rather buy Californian products than Mexican etc....it is bad enough we can't find anything grown and made in our Country now to begin with....

Makes you wonder why our state is almost bankrupt, doesn't it? If we grow most of everything where's the money? We have one of the highest State Tax rates in the nation, where's the money? We probably take in more tourist dollars than any other state, where's the money?

I'm sure you know the answer, it pays for special teachers for ESL classes, it pays for prenatal care, maternity services and nurses visits to new mothers for weeks, it pays for food stamps, day care, emergency room visits, Section 8 housing, you name it, it's free forever.

If you all really want to boycott then look here please and see what you think:

Yes boycotts are a serious issue and we should think carefully through it before considering action. When I heard that pro-illegal alien groups were promoting boycotts of AZ and the Hispanic community was cheering them on I knew that one would backfire. Now suddenly the Hispanic community is very very quiet except for a plea on local radio that boycotts would cost them to lose their jobs first. Some of the idiocy that I have heard locally has been extremely offensive, for example a list of "white-owned" businesses to boycott contained minority owned businesses but I guess they think that anybody that owns a business of any substantial size must be white? Or are their politics so severe that they would only be happy if we return to the days of small markets of only home-grown in the back yard goods?

In all seriousness, an angry warring Mexico could contaminate our food supply from them in a life-threatening way and their government could have no idea before many U.S. citizens died. Therefore it behooves us to support U.S. agriculture and even here we have "immigrant" workers who can contaminate our food. Actually, encouraging Mexico to get rid of the hold companies like Monsanto have there and recoup the diversity of their various breeds of corn alone would have great marketability to the U.S. consumer and perhaps encouraging certain types of business there that we know U.S. citizens want is a way to go. Exporting more of their food specialties that are usually only experienced by travelers to Mexico is an emerging market for them as well. They still have much regional diversity that has not yet been destroyed by huge multi-nationals and it is a rich resource that people hunger for.

I don't hate Mexico or the Mexican people in the least. I would love to vacation in Mexico but my Mexican descent husband refuses because of the high crime and the targeting of non-Mexicans. This also is not new and each and every time I have been to Mexico I have been the target of lesser crimes so I defer to his decision.

All of us American Citizens need to really think about whom is the enemy. We are not the enemy. Most of us have as much control over what our states and municipalities do as we all have over what our corrupt Congress or President do. We must UNITE as ONE people and FIGHT our REAL enemy. Our real enemy is green white and red, TYCOONS, Corrupt Politicians (all incumbents in my opinion), and our President and his monstrous administration, and illegal aliens and LA RAZA...

Want to really boycott something? Start with La Raza, and all businesses owned by those in Congress, and all Tycoons who benefit from illegal aliens. I almost long for a new America Revolution a la French Bastille day, complete with head chopping.

I for one will not boycott any state of this Union, nor will I take any action to hurt citizens of this Union most of whom are as helpless as the rest of us. God help us all, God bless America.
