...if we can't have them as legal residents, we should just stop buying whatever they are selling.


It's quite different to stop buying the products of cheap labor, especially when you don't know which they are. What do you suggest? Stop eating out?

Almost all of the agricultural products grown in California (and for the USA as a whole) that cannot be harvested using a mechanical machinery employ illegal aliens from Mexico and Central America.

So for a start you should stop eating all fresh fruit.
