Lowes Boycott, or why we don't respect protestors anymore

Well now I'm going to shop exclusively at Lowe's to offset your offset.

There are always a few idiots fighting for the evil thigs like bigotry out of some immature 'rebellion' usually.

You should also donate to the neo-Nazis, the KKK, the corporate lobbying organizations who want to strip rights such as net neutrality and groups supporting 'military detention'.

While you're at it, contribute to the tobacco lobbies; while they're not doing well here in the US, they're still killing many millions overseas where children can smoke.

It was a frigging ad on a show.

If they had pictures praising Allah on their windows, then I would agree that some groups might find offense.

Hell, they could advertise on the Playboy Channel (or similar) for all I care. I am not worried about the clientele it will attract.

Wow.
Shopping for a chainsaw at Lowe's is now likened to supporting a neo nazi group.
You clearly have lost your sanity at some point. No reason to have a discussion with you. Take care.

Does it really matter, buying cheap Chinese made crap from Lowes or Walmart?

You have taken the first step on the path to enlightenment.

No matter where I buy my drywall, its always infused with toxic waste that dissolves my piping and probably my lungs!

No, your childish argument that you will support a company specifically because it is being opposed for supporting bigotry against Muslims is like the mentality supporting neo-Nazis.

In fact, I've already said the case for boycott against Lowe's is weak; it's your mentality in your post that I am discussing.

The two sides are simple.

One is saying, treat Muslims in America without hate and discrimination.

The other is saying, do treat them with hate and discrimination, demanding boycotts of a TV show being sponsored with the first message.

It's outrageous that whether to treat them with hate should be a 'controversial issue'.

It would be like groups boycotting advertisers on 'Cosby' because it makes blacks look 'normal', and an advertiser cancelling under the pressure.
