True American?

This man is amazing. He is standing up for what he believes is the right thing. He is helping Arizona and their new law, the 1070 bill, and making a stand. He has seen another state trying to boycott another, and he is doing something about it. He has implemented his own boycott against the State of California (not the residents).

(taken from his own forum)
"Effective immediately, Paul C. Buff, Inc. will refuse any sales to any governmental agency within the State of California. When a state chooses to boycott the residents and businesses of another sovereign state, I believe it is my responsibility as a business leader to help stimulate a measured response on behalf of those damaged as a result."

Seeing as how I am from AZ you can see my biased sense. But what I think he is doing, is something that few people would actually do. He is also a concerned citizen of this country of ours. I believe this guy has actually read the immigration bill and what it is doing for this state.

What was nice too was some of the facts he wrote on his post about the State of California. They were not ones people would like to hear but he wrote that he got them from the L.A. Times. wish he wrote more on when and how he got the info but it fueled the fire for what he was writing.

You can find more information on what he wrote here: http://www.paulcbuff-techforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=557

Another thing I love from reading his post, was the fact that he is willing to also help us Arizonans out by giving us an additional discount on his items. 5% isn't much but it is something when you start buying a lot.

So before I finish here I just have one more thing to say...okay maybe two. Read his posting. From top to bottom, read the posting. And then if you have more time actually read the bill about the immigration laws. senate bill 1070.

We're doing our part in trying to enforce federal law since the government isn't doing so. Why can't we take action upon ourselves to do what's already available for the government?
