San Diego Union Tribune:

BY LORI WEISBERG, UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER

San Diego tourism leaders and hoteliers fear they could lose a sizable chunk of business this summer from valued “Zonies” who are so angered by elected leaders’ recent censure of Arizona for its illegal-immigration law that they’re mounting an informal boycott of their own.

The San Diego Convention & Visitors Bureau and several hotels report receiving e-mails and letters from Arizona visitors saying they intend to change their plans to travel here in light of local outcry over their home state’s anti-illegal-immigration stance.

Tourism officials are striking back. In an open letter, they urge Arizona residents to overlook local politics and come to San Diego just as they always have for its mild climate, beaches and attractions. The visitors bureau, in conjunction with the San Diego County Hotel-Motel Association, plans to circulate the letter to media outlets and in advertising this weekend in The Arizona Republic.

The bureau says it has received about 25 to 30 e-mails from Arizona residents reacting to resolutions passed last month by the San Diego City Council and school board, which were little more than symbolic protests aimed at the neighboring state’s lawmakers.

“The City Council did not pass a resolution boycotting Arizona, and I would hope that the good citizens of Arizona understand that and will continue to visit San Diego,” Frye said.

A  Mexican, an Arab,

 

and an Arizona girl are

 

in the same bar.  

When the Mexican

 

finishes his beer,

 

he throws his glass

 

in the air, pulls out

 

his pistol, and shoots

 

the glass to pieces.

 

He says, 'In Mexico ,

 

our glasses are so

 

cheap we don't need

 

to drink with the same one twice.'

 

The Arab, obviously

 

impressed by this,

 

drinks non-alcohol beer

 

(cuz he's a Muslim!),

 

throws it into the

 

air, pulls out his

 

AK-47, and shoots

 

the glass to pieces.

 

He says, 'In the

 

Arab World, we have

 

so much sand to make

 

glasses that we don't

 

need to drink with

 

the same one twice either.'

 

The Arizona girl,

 

cool as a cucumber,

 

picks up her beer,

 

downs it in one gulp,  

 

throws the glass into

 

the air, whips out her

 

45, and shoots the  

 

Mexican and the Arab..

 

Catching her glass,

 

setting it on the bar, and  calling for a refill,

 

she says,

 

'In Arizona , 

 

we have so many

 

illegal aliens that

 

we don't have to

 

drink with the same ones twice.'   

 

God Bless Arizona!!

Arizona should just pass a law saying "sign this agreeing with our state or go around South ( :( ) or go around North :unsure: ". Your decision...
