6. And then when their pension is pulled out from under them
or they are hit with medical expenses, won't they be *shocked* when they can't declare bankruptcy.

3. Not 36 million, it will be more like 500 trillion of them
and they will rape all the white women, burn down our churches and force all god fearing judeo christians into slavery. Our persecution never ceases. In fact, we will no longer be able to buy lettuce in the grocery store. Pass this email on to every good compassionate "christian conservative" you know. We must defend our shores. (That's how Mexicans get here right?)

4. Well, with no undocumented workers to restock those shelves, the
pickins might be a little slim down at the mall!!!

Idiotic email...like their purchasing power will offset the purchasing power of those who will be otherwise occupied on that day! And like anyone will actually DO this?

Where did that asshole get thirty six million from twelve??? Incredible hyperbole!

Their stupidity is astounding....

5. I call bullshit
Most Americans are a bit busy with work, kids, and school and don't have
time and can't afford to take to the streets.

Many of the participants ARE taking time off work and taking their kids with them.

The certainly have been brainwashed well by the corporations. When crisis strikes, GO SHOPPING!
