Dear Editor,
Sadly, I have to say April 28 was my last family outing to the Super Taqueria in Morgan Hill. Oh the memories, oh the carnitas.
For the past four years, and for me the last 16 years, my family, has gone every Friday night to our favorite taqueria. It was something we looked forward to each week. Good food, good environment and good prices. But we saw a sign that said they closed on May 1, the day that many pro-illegal immigrant organizations told their friends-at-large to boycott their jobs and businesses to show solidarity for their cause of willfully violating the laws regarding immigration, employment and documentation in our country.
To support such is to support lawbreaking in its most blatant form. If people are allowed to break our immigration laws, our employment laws, our driving laws and identification laws, what’s next? No, I cannot support them, nor their cause. I have never asked illegal aliens to come into our nation and pick fruit or clean toilets. No one asked me, so I’m not to blame for their plight. But the illegals have managed to screw this one up, too.
It started hundreds of years ago when the United States and Mexico were being formed. One nation said work hard, play fair and love the Lord, and they were blessed with a great nation. The other country said why do today what can be done tomorrow? Play fair? No, let’s go over to the other country and demand that they give us what they have worked so hard to create.
Therefore, I must decline from supporting businesses that support the lawless criminality of the illegal alien. Therefore, the $12 spent each week at Super Taqueria will now be given to FAIR (www.fair.org) to combat this illegal invasion. And no future money will be spent at Super Taqueria or at any business that supports this lawlessness, depriving them of my, and others’ I’m sure, patronage, which is vital to any business, and will have more negative effect on their lives than on people like myself.
They want to boycott and close down for a day and lose that revenue? Go for it. That’ll be mistake No. 3. No. 1 was coming into the country illegally. No. 2 was marching in the streets of America with Mexican flags and thereby giving away their cover, and three, a boycott that will cost them a day’s production and turn away rock-solid, consistent patrons like me. Yes, go ahead, make my day.
This attempt at justice is laughable all the way from the White House with El Presidente Jorge Bush down to the poverty-stricken illegal alien that thinks he deserves more. I say give injustice enough time, and they will get the justice they so need – the justice of deportation.
