I am going to WORK and SHOP that day, and if my Great grandfather was here today he would agree. When he came over to this country he wasn;t givin a cushy job or an special treatment, he worked hard on the railroad and earned respect.

How is the economy going to suffer if they only stop buying stuff for one day they are all just going to go out on either Sunday or Tuesday to get the stuff they needed monday. These people are ignorant if they seriously think this will do anything but damage their cause by pissing off more Americans by waving their da** Mexican flags and pissing all over the American cultures and traditions!

This IS what's coming right to your neighborhood: \n\nOne of these days in the near future, these millions of illegals are going to become berserkers. \nIt is the intention of Mexicans to "reclaim" the four border states and merge them back with Mexico and they are willing to do it with violence. \nThese 15 million plus illegals will go on a rampage the minute any serious round up and deportation begins, but it must get done for the very surivival of Our Republic, Our Standard of Living and Our Culture.

Seriously, I think there will be a lot of fighting. A lot of United States citizens are really tired of illegals draining our economy, and I think the resentment will surface in a very violent way.  And just for the record, I hope they don't pass a bill allowing that, because it certainly isn't fair to the people who earned their citizenship the honest way.  By the way, my family has been here since about 1670.

It is and there have been some arrests recently. The reason companies hire illegals is that they can pay them little and remain competitive. If we are serious about stopping this, then we must be willing to pay higher prices for the goods they help produce. If the companies have to pay decent wages and benefits, it WILL raise prices to the consumers. So, instead of calling these companies greedy, we need to decide just how greedy are we? Greedy enough to look the other way so we can pay low prices?

Yes, our politicians are anti-American and pro-business. More and more of our own citizens will be living in 3rd world country conditions right on U.S. soil. \n\nThese illegal Mexican immigrants don't even want to become U.S. citizens. During the protests they were demanding amnesty, not citizenship. They believe that the U.S. stole our land from Mexico and are using the illegal immigration as a strategy to take back the land from within. That is why they were flying Mexican flags and yelling that this is their country. That is why they hung the American flag upside down beneath their own. They are conquering this country and the U.S. citizens are suffering from it.

Yes, and I certaintly hope so.  They are illegal because gaining lawful citizianship, or even temp. visas are time consuming and expensive.  Lets face it, the reason these people are here illegally is becasue they need money, so what sence does it make for the fees to be so high?  its almost as if the Government WANTS the illegals because without them we would be in a sad shape.  everyone can moan and groan about it, but bottom line is, Americans are to proud and some too lazy to work in a field all day picking vegtables or cotton for pennies a bushal.  Without them, our ecomony would improve?  Doubt it.  Without them more jobs?  Perhaps, but the jobs they will/would leave are ones Americans simpily dont want.  These people come here to support their families back home, and really if it came down to it, shoe on other foot I would do the same.  we would all do whats best for our children, even if it was illegal I think.  Exp.  If my baby needed milk and I had no money or no one to help, I would steal it!  Bottom line, and thats all theya re doing to.  REFORM IMMIGRATION, changes laws to help them become legal (even temp.) but dont just ship em' off they need us and we them.

I hope so, it is time to send some if not all of the ILLEGALS back to where they come from. So if you are legal better take your paperwork to the rally or you might find yourself on a bus to Mexico.

Yeppers, november can't get here fast enough...and if the democrats have their hats on straight, they'll be pushing for nailing the damn border shut. TIGHT. Americans are getting robbed, that's all there is to it, the politicians got us coming, and going, it's time for reform, and for people to reclaim their lives, their wallets, their freedoms, and stop letting the hispanic lobby from trying to usurp our national independence. They're actively involved in our government, as you just illustrated, and Mexico needs to stand up, and wipe its' own ass instead of living off the United States Of America. Let's de-globalize a bit, and let the rest of the world take care of itself, for a change. If they can't, well, sucks to be them...

Yes, sure I will stay at my house all day long. It is going to be a day that will show what would really happens if there where no immigrants. People say that we are bad for the economy so if this is true the economy will boom on that day.\n\nFirst some people say it is pointless but then they say that they will go and buy many things on that day. Confusing.....Isn't it? If they say that they will go and buy more things on that day is because they know that this boycott will affect the country. And then they say it is pointless! VERY CONFUSING...........................

I believe it is headed in that direction regardless of what happens. Things are already to far in motion to just be ignored now. Whether the illegals are sent home, or made legal, prices on Ag goods will be rising within the next few years. If the illegals are granted amnesty, they will be demanding higher wages, so no matter what, prices are going to rise.

Yes.\n\nThey already let people with RV's park in their parking lots, and they refused to close on illegal immigrant day, and they rock with the price of fiddle faddle.\n\n97 cents!

did 4/20 remind you of this? lol\n\ni dunno though. maybe the year 2020? i mean i doubt anything will happen, as i doubted y2k would happen, but people might make a big deal about it so everyone will go buy stuff again like they did for y2k.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday! I told my hubby I bet they WILL buy things, the first of the month is when they get their food stamps! They aren't fooling anyone! This country will be just fine without them! They are more of a drain our economy than anything else!

No not yet unfortunately, i hope they pass that because these illegals are causing this country money and some might say no they are not, but the way things are going it definitely will.  Either come in legally or go away!

Well, I think that would be more effective than just showing us how much they can hurt our economy by not shopping or working for one day.. It's like everyone not buying gas on the same day.. Everything will go back to normal tomorrow and they will be shopping and working just like always.. probably more to make up for not doing it today.

You are right. It is all of the things you have mentioned and more. It is one colossal mis calculation after the next. America has definitely stepped up it's tone on illegals, and it's not really the government, it's the American people. The fact that these illegals tried to demand something that they have not earned is just outrageous. If the demonstrations were a bid to ask the Americans for help to rid Mexico of the corruption and strangle hold the drug families have on the economy then i think they would be in business. Instead, they march on American cities demanding rights and free passage while flying a foreign nations flag. Really, really bad judgment.
