There's one thing that I don't understand about this immigrant day boycott: isn't it really only hurting the businesses that hire immigrants? Let's assume for a second that company A hires immigrants, has a good product, and good deliveries. Let's assume for the next second that company B does not hire immigrants, has a good product, and good deliveries. Now, today, company A has just ticked off all of its customers, while company B has made them happy! So don't the immigrants really lose?
Meat processing companies come to mind. There are some meat companies that do very well by hiring immigrants, especially ones without papers (I think some people call them illegial aliens). Other meat companies do not hire immigrants (or only legal ones). So today, those companies with a lot of immigrants would be at a distinct disadvantage.
Good luck to them anyway. I hope they get what they are looking for, as long as it isn't world domination!
