So the Los Angeles City Council has voted to boycott Arizona over its new immigration law. This nauseating display of moral vanity comes on the same day the Pew Research Center reports on a new poll showing that the American people support the law by a commanding 59%-32%. Heck, Pew found that Democrats are split, with 46% opposed and 45% in support. So we have the City of Los Angeles boycotting Arizona over a law that Americans overwhelmingly support. Only in America!
But since the Arizona law mirrors federal law, shouldn’t LA boycott DC as well? Hmmm.
Meanwhile, Rasmussen is out with a new poll showing that support for repeal of the health car law is holding steady; 56% favor repeal while just 37% are opposed. Given these kinds of numbers, you’d think if any law was ripe for inciting a boycott, it would be health care – enacted using parlimentary tricks to shove it down the throat of an unwilling and unsupportive public. Maybe we should organize a boycott of DC until health care bill is repealed?

Youngmonte- Only in LA
Scope (Diary) Thursday, May 13th at 12:31PM EST (link)There are good and bad people everywhere, but, LA seems to have more than their share of brain dead, including their city council, and, those that voted for them. Only in the Greece of the US would they cut off their noses to spite their face in voting for more economic perils. In other words, they choose to keep bankrupting their city with unsustainable welfare payments to the large population of illegals, and fight against a state that is trying to control the crisis. Seems that the gangs of illegal thugs have taken over LA.
