    Thumbs down Frito Lay threatens boycott of Fiesta bowl

    I have heard that Frito Lay is considering pulling sponsorship of the fiesta Bowl in AZ. I do not know if the decision is final yet but if they do I will boycott all of their products. I think an e-mail and or phone call to their corporate office to let them know might be in order.

    Just an update. I did talk to a representative of Frito Lay and was told that although there was a protest group trying to pressure them into pulling advertising that there was no plans on doing that. Hopefully that is correct. We will have to wait and see.

    To be clear, Frito Lay is not "threatening" to boycott AZ. Instead, like Starbucks, they are being "pressured" by a minority grooup of activists to support an agenda aimed at attempting to fight our existing laws and traditions.

    By all means, let them know that this is not appropriate for a business to let themselves be stampeded into a rash decision with far-reaching consequences. Make rational comments on the news sites and contact Frito-Lay with your opinion as consumers.

    Hispanics represent a huge portion of the population. The politicians, are going to pander to this large group.

    I am not surprised the "activists" are knocking on the corporations door.

    It is all about votes, and profits. Nothing else matters. What a shame.

    Pepsi just got off an AFA boycott. I don't think they want another one in their future!

    Hispanic coalition??? The illegals NOW have a coalition? Tell those criminal turkeys that they better keep their mouths shut or we'll stop EVERY DARN one of them and ask for their Drivers License, Registration, proof of insurance,and GREEN Card. And if they don't haveall that info, the whole darn Hispanic Coalition will be returned to Mexico.

    How dare some bunch of criminals try to push their way in DEMANDING rights now, or their own political agenda!!
