[#800000][size 4][#000000][size 2]Sorry Toyguy, but you’re wrong. Yes, it was a union demand. However, I can not boycott a union as they don’t produce a product I can choose to use or not use.[/size][/#000000] [/size][/#800000]

Doesn't that mean you're targeting the "deep pocket", not the perpetrator?

[#000000]Why can’t I believe all the reports?[/#000000]

Because the reports are conflicting. One has the the Somalis as a majority, the other has them as a minority. It can't be both.

[#000000] I don’t care about the Somalis or whether they were or were not a majority voting bloc of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Stores Union. It’s not relevant.[/#000000]

Actually, it's highly relevant. If they were a majority, it becomes clear why the demand was made. It's that pesky "majority rules" thing. To not care, as you state, allows you to base your reaction/opinion on something other than the math and/or facts.


The decision to honor this Muslim holiday is not something that I am comfortable with either, but a cost of democracy is the white guy not always getting what he wants.

And it's Muslims and Mexicans now; but it was Germans, Jews, the Irish and Italians in the great emigration of the early 1900's.

Get used to the plight of the American WASP since the 1996 census; that's the last time that ethnic group was a majority in the good ole' US.

And if this kind of thing torques you (understandably), you better buy a big bottle of Excedrin; cuz just wait 10 years. The immigration policies of both (majority) political parties now, has serious consequence just a stones throw down the road. Like I wrote earlier, it's become politically incorrect to challenge the "we're all brothers" mentality. If it wasn't, Tom Tankredo would still be running for president.

But it's your right to boycott, and have at it, if you will.
