Phew We Made It Through

So how are you all today? Did you all make it though yesterday? I know it was hard. I didn't even notice anything different. Yesterday was just like every other day. Only one thing, ready, the backlash now grows.

If I was not furious before, seeing more people parading though the streets of the US with Mexican flags only further made me angry. Seeing people parade though the streets when they don't have the right to protest that is provided to LEGAL citizen in this country. The Constitution provides right to LEGAL Citizens. But you know, I can't help but think I'm not the only one. You know it was funny my sister called me yesterday to ask if we get the day off of work, after all I'm an immigrant. We had a good laugh as did my dad who worked for seven years to allow me to have the benefits of this fine country.

So how did yesterday impact us, well no impact here, but it did teach me something. It taught me all the businesses around me that i won't be visiting any more. It reminded me that my next vacation will not be to Mexico because if they want to play the boycott game I can play it too. I won't be buying a new home. I will be quizzing my lawn service, and if they are hiring illegals then i will mow the lawn myself. I won't be going to any mom and pop mexican restaurants here either. They pushed this citizen and LEGAL immigrant too far. So now i push back.

I hope all members of the VRWC also do the same. Its apparent our lawmakers are turning a deaf ear to 80 percent of the public. So maybe we can work on solving this ourselves. If you don't support business that hires illegals, there won't be jobs and there for no for this invasion to continue.
