700$ per year per houshold....sounds like subsidizing immigration. So much for all that savings that "cheep" labor was providing.

I for one am going to find out what products and services I can use around here that will support Arizona.

Hilarious.

Given the bankrupt status of California due to their moronic entitlement programs, I don't think they can afford to be canceling business deals with anyone.

Meh. There is a reason the rest of the nation laughs at them....

Looks to me like Arizona is puting it's own citizens first as they should be doing so has gone up in my book.

Other states are free to employe all the immigrants heading there way but don't get telling the rest of the world what they should do less you be compared to Startin and Hittler.

No need to resort to insults so why don't you use that brain to put up a counter argument if you have one because ranting is not going to resolve anything.

As an Arizonan . . . I say thank you!! L.A. business intrests usually don't swing in favor of Arizona or it's citizens (i.e. investment RE/housing market), so this "boycott" has been needed by AZ for some time. Scottsdale has turned into L.A. East, as it is.

Good for you L.A.!! Please remember the "boycott" when AZ stops sending over 50% of it's generated electricity to Southern California. Enjoy those blackouts while you pat yourselves on the back!!

Maybe Arizona should stop sending water and electrical power to California. After all they want to boycott our products.

California should just put all their illegal aliens on treadmills hooked up to generators. Then they wouldn't need our power.

California is operating on Federally mandated IOU's. It survives entirely off of electricity and goodwill from its neighboring states, and it turns around and squanders that goodwill on ridiculous programs that benefit everyone except its legal residents!

AZ should cut off its power! All of the neighboring states already tried to stop accepting the IOU's, but the FED bullied them into continuing the bleeding line of credit.

If California was cut off and left to function on its own merits, the immigration problem would probably be Californians scrambling across the border to Mexico so they could have electricity and Healthcare!

I"m in Florida too, but just barely. Still, Quincy, FL has been completely overrun! Most English speakers have chosen to move away from there. The Grocery stores have beefed up security, the supervisor of elections has taken special precautions, and that is just a very very small llittle podunk town!

I don't think any "American" makes any claim to Miami these days. We all realize that it is a Cuban territory and not a Florida one.

We'll be hitting the Grand Canyon and Flagstaff. Not sure what we are going to do specifically yet. I've only driven through and not stayed until now.

Thanks for asking!!!

Good-bye Disney... Helloo, ello, ello, ello Grand Canyon!

You know, i wonder how many people with their mouths open are descendants of illegal immigration. You think all those Europeans that flooded over during WW1 and WW2 came through the proper channels?

Arizona, ignorance at it's best...and i'm saying this from the perspective that it took them forever to recognize MLK as a national holiday. Arizona passed it in 1992 AFTER a tourist boycott, so boycotting does work.

Go LA! This country wasn't created by one ethnic group of people even though their are those that swear it was.

Sigh Thanks a lot. Mexico is what they think is worth bragging about.
Go back there. You aren't wanted here in Cali either. Skip right back where you came from.

uhm... isn't the arizona law the same as the federal law already on the books?

I don't get the issue.
Is LA just being stupid?

You're right, it wasn't.

It was created by LEGAL, law abiding, hard working people.

The key word here is LEGAL.

I can post a link defining that word if you want.



Peace

Try Jerome also.

The 89A scenic route from Prescott Valley to Jerome is breathtaking. If you have motorcycles, bring 'em. There are numurous pull-outs along the way. There is a campground at the 7,000 ft. marker and plenty of trails for hiking.

Jerome itself is a town like you've never seen before. It was literally built on the side of the mountain. If you've ever been to Switzerland, it will remind you of some of the small, tourist towns there.

No, I'm not a member of the tourism commitee, I just play one on T.V.




Peace

This is actually grossly UNCONSTITUTIONAL ..

A state (or any entity of a state) may NOT enter into special trading relationships with any other state that would separate them from the Union as a whole -- this includes boycotts. One state trying to alienate another state?


I'm almost to the point of saying we should kick California out of the Union .. let them be their god forsaken parasitic nation on their own. They wouldn't last a week without the ability to suck from the financial teets of the Federal Government.

Ignorant imbeciles.
