ANSWER Promoting a May 1 Immigrant Walkout Protest

[RMT]

Just saw this on Brit Hume on FoxNews ... on May 1, ANSWER is asking all those in favor of granting amnesty to ALL immigrants (legal and illegal) to skip work, school, etc. What a bunch of idiots.

These guys can go to hell.

I'm not really inclined to skip work. The only people I'd piss off would be my clients, my employees and worst of all, my wife (the Mexican-born Hispanic American woman who officially owns and runs the business. Hey, there are certain advantages to playing the system).

In Dana Carvey voice as the first President Bush: Nah gahnna dooit.

Or your average honest José. What's the difference?

[Rohirrim]

Isn't ANSWER the organization that issued a statement of solidarity with Kim Sung Il of North Korea?

[gunns]

They are having the walkout here in Utah on Monday. They are also having a huge protest march. Should be a huge shock to Utah's 95% white people's system. If they all do walk out should shut down all the fast food restaurants in Salt Lake City.

[RMT]

What I think we need to do is stop spending our money on vacations to Mexico and avoid going to Mexican restaurants.

And for pete's sake - write your congressmen/women.

Wouldn't it be nice if they walked out and never came back?

And wouldn't it be nice if unemployed American citizens told the fat cat millionaires and billionaires who own the chains "we'll take these jobs if you pay us a living wage, plus benefits?"

Yeah you had me until the liberals cry of living wage, plus benefits. First, you are asking the employers to give extreme more than normal. If min. wage is 6.75 , a citizen should be able to take 8 to 9. IF this is the type of work they are accostumed to, then maybe their goals before this disaster should have been higher. In and Out pays about $9 to start and doesnt have one illegal or for that matter a Mexican (ive never seen one in there). Sure a higher wage will get more citizens to apply for the job, but for the most part, they are taking fast food industry kind of jobs. I worked at DEL Taco 19 years ago. Afternoons had about 40% white/blacks working there. I cant find one teenager there anymore. There pay sucked and had huge turnover. Illegals wont b**** and they take the teenager jobs away.

DETROIT -- Fifteen immigrant women who missed work to attend an immigrant rights rally last month have been fired.

The general manager of a Detroit meat packing company said the women were warned they would lose their jobs if they skipped work on March 27.

The workers said they received no such warning.

All of the women are natives of Mexico. Many had worked at Wolverine Packing for several years, and some are undocumented immigrants

An activist trying to get the women's jobs back said they were fired "for standing up for their rights."

[Play2win]

If you are not a citizen of USA, what rights do you have?!?

or, at least, a LEGAL alien/immigrant...

Good. But at the same time, the employer should be nailed for knowingly hiring them in the first place.

Depends. How much do you think a living wage is?

And what benefits are we talking about?

Yep. it was probablt perfect timing for the employer to sh** can then that way he just says HEY i didn't know they were illegal (so i fired them) ill bet this will happen a whole bunch soon when employers get scared.
