True Facts About Illegal Alien Boycotts

Face it, you don’t matter.

It’s getting close to 24 hours after The Day Without An Illegal Alien. Or was it called A Day Without An Immigrant? The truth, as I’m about to prove to you all, is that it was just a day without an illegal alien. And the great thing was that it was a day without traffic or annoying people clogging up the stores and restaurants.

Here are some hard, solid facts for you to all put in your pipes and smoke:

- The only communities affected by the boycotts were the poor communities infested with illegal immigrants already. East Los Angeles, South Central, parts of the valley such as Panorama City, Arleta, Van Nuys, and Sun Valley, and portions of Downtown had their businesses shut down. As for the rest of us that don’t live in towns that resemble third world countries, we were fine. Our businesses and restaurants were open, and we continued on with our lives.

- There was no such thing as an “economic impact” from the illegals who decided to take the day off and not spend any money. The night before the protests my partner and I were in a crappy part of town, and ended up at the Vallarta market to pick up some food and drinks to keep us awake for the rest of the shift. The store was packed with people buying food, drinks, junk food, and soda. Here’s a hint for the economists in the illegal immigrant groups: You’re not causing an “impact” on the economy if you merely shift your buying from one day to another. Even if you decide to boycott and not buy food for a week, you still have to stock-up and eat at some time or another. It’s like moving a pile of dust from one side of the room to another and claiming that you cleaned.

- You did the rest of us a favor by clearing out the freeways so we didn’t have to spend an hour in the car to get 15 miles.

- All of you need to get off this train of thought that involves California being a part of Mexico that was “stolen.” You people are idiots. Not only was it bought, but you’re not the sharpest tools in the shed if you believe that California would be better off if it was still part of Mexico. All of you are attempting to hop the border because Mexico sucks – it’s corrupt, there are no jobs, it’s filthy and disease-ridden, and the chances of being able to live past your 60th birthday are slim to none. That’s why all of you grasp socialism and communism – because you think it’ll make your lives better. It won’t, and if you want better lives, then you need to be as politically active in your country as you are in ours. Get some new leaders and then start talking about the “rights” you have.

- You have no “rights.” You’re illegal. At the end of the day, I get to go to a voting booth, and you don’t. You can’t demand citizens rights if you’re not a citizen.

If anyone else wants to add to the list, please feel free to do so. Drop it in the comments area.

I had only one student skip school.  What a waste.  I’m the only one in the whole county that gives a wet-slap if he shows up or not, so that doesn’t work.  Plus, he is one day dumber.

We’re doing these guys a favor.  A favor a lot of people don’t want to do.  If they choose not to except it, who are they hurting?  I missed him, but I had that much more resources to devote to the students who showed up.
