Thread: BOYCOTTS - General Boycott/June Boycott-Banks-McD-BK

June 5 update: Anyone who is doing only the monthly boycott focus can now go back to buying poultry in the supermarket. Those who want to continue to put on the pressure in a general boycott, can locate LOCAL suppliers for purchasing their chicken products and continue to write to the big poultry processors to let them know they are still not going to get your business back.

JUNE FOCUS BOYCOTT
The June focus is two-fold. We are pulling our money out of any banks that have been giving loans to illegals. We are continuing the boycott action against Burger King and McDonald's

REMEMBER THAT JUST BOYCOTTING THE PRODUCT ISN'T ENOUGH. WE MUST ALSO SEND LETTERS TO THE COMPANIES WE BOYCOTT TO LET THEM KNOW HOW WE FEEL ABOUT THESE ISSUES.

ALSO - EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO THEIR PART TO SPREAD THE WORD. WE DON'T HAVE PROFESSIONAL ADVERTISING COMPANIES TO DO OUR WORK FOR US AND WE ARE RELYING ON A GRASSROOTS EFFORT.

FOR NEWCOMERS TO THE BOYCOTT - THERE ARE TWO LEVELS TO OUR ACTION:

WE NEED YOU TO IMMEDIATELY SEND LETTERS TO MCDONALD'S AND BURGER KING TELLING THEM WE WILL BEGIN TO BOYCOTT THEM ON MAY 1ST BUT OUR BOYCOTT WILL BE AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION AND THE COMPANIES THAT HIRE ILLEGALS.

*********************************

The Petition Flyer(Please Copy and Distribute)

*********************************


APRIL/MAY 2006 POULTRY BOYCOTT

DO NOT BUY OR EAT POULTRY OR POULTRY PRODUCTS IN APRIL OR MAY

Because the POULTRY industry is known to "allegedly" employ food handlers who are in this country illegally,

and Because targeting ONE POULTRY company will only result in the poultry plants' wrapping their product in a different wrapper to avoid the effects of the boycott,

We are calling for a boycott of the entire POULTRY industry for the entire monthS of April and May, 2006.


PLEASE TAKE THE BOYCOTT PLEDGE:

I, the undersigned, will not buy or consume POULTRY in ANY form - raw or already prepared, FOR THE ENTIRE MONTHs OF APRIL and MAY 2006

Signed ___________________________
Mail a copy of your signed pledge and SEND IT to any and all Poultry Companies in your area.

S--- my main question is how to boycott the chamber of commerce- I mean what services do they provide that we can do wihtout?

Bump!

Read and signed, come on everyone there are only 15 signatures as of Monday April 3, 2006. Where are you!

Added mine to the list.

In all honesty, I don't like the language. The words "cram down our throats" or some such sound very unprofessional to me. Sorry, you asked.

Slang in a post is one thing. Slang in a petition makes the signers look bad.

Just my opinion.

I have long since lost the capapcity to write to TRAITORS, be they Senators or Businessmen, with anything less than rage. I can't think of a replacement for "cram this down our throats" that would quite express what they are doing to us unless I substitute sexually explicit language.

I wont go into what I have in mind here, as its not quite fit to post.

I'm sure there are some that would object to telling the "US" Chamber to fly another flag - but again - I'd rather see them fly an honest GLOBAL FLAG than to MOCK the flag MY countrymen have died for. These people need to be put on notice that they are NO LONGER AMERICANS - but TRAITORS - that need to do business under the flag that best represents them.

Hmmmm--- how about "forced upon Americans" or "forced upon us by elected officials" as opposed to crammed down our throats?

I have to be honest, both times when I went to read the petition, I never got past that glaring phrase.

"forced upon Americans" or "forced upon us by elected officials"

Nope, too lame. Anyway, its a moot point - petitions cannot be changed. Once you sign a petition, you wouldn't want it to be messed with, would you? that would invalidate it. so its not even allowed as a possibility.
