May 1 buzz

From comments here on the May 1 boycott

- I am in charge of importing ocean containers,and the buzz around the ports of Los Angeles, CA is great. All of the Mexican truckers and port employees are not showing up.

- No one in the freight forwarding business is showing up.

- In Costa Rica an e-mail asking to the rest of Latin America to boycott US products on May 1st, by not shopping for any US brands (including fast food!) is circulating.

I’ve heard a similar boycott may happen in Mexico too. Stay tuned, this thing is getting huge.

Update:

‘Nothing gringo’ is May 1 rally cry

Boycott in Mexico of U.S. merchandise to parallel immigrants’ holdout here.

Post away about what’s happening in your area and what you’re hearing.
