Show your support for the Blue Star Deli
C’mon Blog World!! Let’s get with the program, I know not all of you live in the D/FW area and can’t meet for lunch on Monday, I know this has been thrown together on pretty short notice for those that DO live in the area, and I completely understand too, but here’s what you CAN do, copy my post and make a post in YOUR blog, link it back to here and I will return the favor, just posting about this is a tremendous help, the more bloggers that post this, the more people that will see it, and if you’re able, send the guy a $5 or $10 donation, and in the ‘MEMO’ line write in Blogger Support, we CAN help this guy, bloggers ARE a force to be reckoned with, put your money where your keyboard is, we are…
I’m sending out a BIG Texas ‘Hat Tip’ to Murray at Lone Star Diary for sending me this story, great catch Murray!!
I just talked to Dave, the Deli owner and he will be open this Sunday, but it will be his last Sunday, business is that bad, it appears that Farmers Branch has a lot of illegals focused on shutting this guy down, well, the wife and I are going to go have lunch at the Blue Star Deli Monday…

Dave Mooney, owner of the Blue Star Deli in Farmers Branch, Texas, is feeling the backlash of his support of Farmers Branch. Dave has been in the forefront of support, opening up his cafe for all types of activities to support Farmers Branch and what that city has tried to do to stop the harm illegal immigration is doing.
News has surfaced from Halliburton employees that a boycott has been called by the Hispanic and pro-illegal employees. Although, Dave didn’t have a contract for business lunches, he did receive orders to provide business lunches from time to time. These orders have now stopped. Also, it is being reported that Hispanic radio stations are broadcasting a boycott of the Blue Star.
Dave is experiencing a 50% decrease in sales receipts due to this boycott and has now taken a second job. The call is out for all of us do what we can to help Dave. If you are in the area, stop by and have one of Dave’s good hamburgers, tell others about the Blue Star Deli.
Call KSKY radio’s Mike Gallagher, KLIF’s Jeff Bolton and John David Wells, all who have had broadcasts at the Blue Star Deli, to ask their listening audience to support Dave. Let’s all do what we can to keep Dave in business.
U.S Border Watch will be sending a check to Mr Mooney, and we encourage everyone else to send him a few bucks. Five or ten dollars in a restaurant business is a lot of money. We must help those who have put their business on the line to help our cause. Below is the address and web site for the Blue Star Deli, and if you are in the area drop in and thank this fine Patriot for his support and have a burger.

I wish I could show up and help support this man and his business, but I’m in Tennessee. Sorry. I will mention the situation at Right Truth and I will send out an email to the Coalition Against Illegal Immigration, I think we have some members in Texas.
July 13th, 2007 at 8:11 pm
If TexasFred says this guy needs help, then he needs help.
I will put a check in the mail tomorrow.
Sure glad to know you’re on my side, Fred.
Well done.
Update: My wife says we’ll put a check in the mail tonight, well excuse me.
July 13th, 2007 at 8:26 pm
Thanks so much, Fred, for helping spread the word about Blue Star Deli…it’s refreshing to see folks step up to help. That’s damn sure the American way!
July 13th, 2007 at 10:30 pm
I’d happily stop in for a meal, but that’s a long drive from Okinawa. Hope it goes well!
July 13th, 2007 at 10:32 pm
If ya can’t be there, send Dave a donation, and let him know where you heard of his problems…
A $10 donation from all the bloggers we know would be 3 or 4 grand, and that would help the guy tremendously…

You got a spot on my blog. This is a battle on the home front that needs support. Take a peak at my spin on the issue and start supporting more people who have taken a hit on the front lines of illegal immigration.
I would be honored to recognize any business who has been wounded in this battle. Leave me a comment and a link.

Crap! This is one of the few Mondays when I have to work. I may have to figure something out.

Wish we could be there personally - but will be there in spirit! I’ll make the post on my site and any updates!

Tejas Fred: I already wrote my check for $100 specifically to Dave Mooney, putting my CASH where my MOUTH has been for these three years. If I can’t support this one guy from Texas then I can’t do anything.
First: running a business is TOUGH in ANY state because of state and federal TAXES and RESTRICTIONS. He has my RESPECT simply because of that.
Second: because of his jackpot, he deserves my support from afar. If I can’t attend and patronize his business, then I guess I need to make up for my lack of presence.

From Debbie at Right Truth:
The latest on Blue Star Deli from Texas Fred via email:…
July 15th, 2007 at 2:42 pm
Okay Fred — I’ve posted this on my own blog, and done a companion post at a message board that has some folks who live in the Dallas/Sherman/North Texas area. Plus my son and I are driving to Chicago the 2nd week in August. We will be stopping at the Blue Star Deli for luch (and taking out for dinner) from Blue Star Deli — both on the away trip and the return trip.
And leaving a big honkin’ Tip, too.
Drop by my website — I’ve linked to a map. The Deli is just off I-35E, not much of a side-trip at all.

The word is spreading. It’s great you are going to be on the radio show Monday morning, Fred.

I’ve gotta do some routine business tommorrow, pay some bills and stuff. I’ll be dropping a check in the mail tommorrow when I go to the post office bro.
July 15th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
My humble submission.
July 16th, 2007 at 9:35 am
No more Sundays? Well, that messed my idea of taking the short person over there for lunch before we head north.
July 16th, 2007 at 1:09 pm
I’ve got a client in Farmers Branch, says the place is over run with Illegals. They’ll win. And that makes me sick. One more American “killed” by illegals.

Give us an update post this evening. Share your experiences today.
July 16th, 2007 at 11:55 pm
What a great demonstration of bloggers kicking some Texas sized butt! I hope the message got through to a few of the locals that the Blue Star Deli won’t be going down without a fight and a little help from their friends! This is exactly the kind of stuff that makes my brain sizzle!!
July 17th, 2007 at 3:43 pm
I just had lunch at the BSD. The turkey club was excellent. I know the owner Dave from his previous job and we had a chance to catch up on things. He’s incredible, as he can smile through the worst of times - he always has and always will. It’s a pleasure to know some one like him, who’s as nice as they come. He told me that he is so very thankful for all the help he’s received since last Thursday and hopes it will continue. He’s very grateful for all of your support.
Stop in, sit down for a spell and get filled up. You’ll be glad you did.
