Europeans try to boycott U.S. goods

#1 Postby bfez1 » Tue Apr 01, 2003 5:31 pm

FRANKFURT, Germany, April 1 — Some European restaurants are halting sales of Coca-Cola, Marlboro cigarettes and other U.S. brands in boycotts spurred by anti-war sentiment.

I dont know if you read the thread I started about the SA born Marine who was killed, but I added a link there about SA doing the same thing as Europe and how it disgusted me.

Where would they be without the AMERICAN assistance, technology and support over the past 60 years that makes this possible?

We could form our own underground railroad like they did in the Civil War! With us spread out all over the country they'll never find her! :-)

You guys! I cant even tell you how much that means to me! It is soooo hard to hear these things about my own country, it makes me think "what must others here in the US think of ME!"

It is so good to know that you guys consider me worthy of staying here. I dont know how or what is going to happen with my visa, I am currently (today) sending our papers through to the lawyer who will file them at the INS. Please pray!!! PLEASE. Looking at the situation with the political implications starting to arise, I know the only way we will be allowed to stay will be through prayer! God will guide me and set my feet upon the path he has made for me.

Thank you all so much for your support, you have no idea how much it means to me.

Bronwyn, you put that SA flag back up...we, or our ancestors, have ALL been kicked out of every "decent" country in the world, and we've been kicking @$$ ever since!
