Nice Trade

Boycott


Victoria, Texas (Pop. 55,000) is a town about 125 miles southwest of Houston.
 
Local Hispanic leaders, in opposition to pending Immigration Legislation, boycotted all Caucasian owned businesses in the Victoria area this weekend as a demonstration of their economic impact on the community.
 
The boycott was declared a success in the Hispanic community, noting that revenue in Caucasian owned businesses was down 19%.
 
Business owners declared the boycott a success as well, pointing out that shoplifting was reduced by 77%.

The boycott was declared a success by the Hispanic community, noting that revenue in Caucasian owned businesses was down by 19%.

Business owners declared the boycott a success as well; pointing out that shoplifting was reduced by 77%, money orders sent out of the country were down by 97%, and the cost of daily clean-up and trash collection was down by 84%.

Shoppers reported that they could actually hear English being spoken throughout the community for the first time in recent memory, and customers actually paid for purchases with real money, not government
debit cards!
