Pickets Swarm Lowe's For Pulling Ads From Muslim Show

Protesters descended on a Lowe's store in one of the country's largest Arab-American communities on Saturday, calling for a boycott after the home improvement chain pulled its ads from a reality television show about five Muslim families living in Michigan.

It may have been 10 years since the attacks on America, but we are still not ready. Stop shoving what the liberals deem as okay down our throats. I won't watch anything on that network since they added this show. I find it repulsive and have chosen to boycott in my own way.

I'm on my way to Lowes right now to buy things I don't need. I will be wearing a flannel shirt and blue jeans and the only thing covering my wife's beautiful face is a smile.

Amen 9:24-If Americans boycotted convenience stores and Dunkin Donuts, we could put them all out of business (if the government isn't susidizing them, which is highly probable). We have given them an inch and now they want to take a mile, and the problem has been caused by the same entity that has caused all our problems for the last 75 years-the government. It is way past time (and maybe too late)to take our country back.

0859 I really hope you don't group all Muslims in with the small group of people who brought our country to it's knees on 09/11.
"I find it repulsive..." wow what a statement. So you honestly believe that the Muslim family in my neighborhood is just as guilty as OBL?
You 0859, are the ignorant one, the bigot, and obviously completely uniformed.

If the Muslems want to come here, then they can become "American" and get rid of the stupid head covers and evil religion!

I can not believe I live in a community of alleged God fearing christian folks, who can spread so much hate and discord for another who doesn't believe in another religion.

anon 1056, do you also feel this way about Jewish people, and their kippah's or catholic women who chose to wear a veil to mass? Or do you just hate all Muslims? You should really make that clear.

Oh and by the way, Christianity has not always been as pure as you think it has. I would go into details, but I don't think you could wrap your small head around such a time in history.

PERIOD!

convert or kill?!? I haven't laughed this hard in such a long time. Thank you, really thank you.

Maybe in your next life you will pay attention to world civics and not the msm.

Good God, I can't stop laughing, some people should not be allowed to comment because of their shear ignorance of the topic.

Let us just hope you don't spout this ridiculous rhetoric to your children. We all know hate/ignorance breeds hate/ignorance.

Where are all the peace loving muslims when the towers were falling? They were in the streets cheering. Where are the peace loving muslims when the "radicals" blow up things. They stand quietly by their "brothers in islam" and will protect them. They will not speak out against such violence because they know its what the quran has taught them.

Seems you are the ignorant one. Maybe you don't fully understand the quran because it does state if they do not convert that you can kill them. Do you read arabic? I have been told by several muslims that you can't fulling understand the quran unless you can read arabic. You can't hide the lies and you also can't say we took it out of context. You must be one of those cupid converts. You know the ones. They can't get a decent many so any man that shows them a bit of attention they marry.... after 5 years (when the man can become legal here) you will find yourself divorced.
Oh and before you tell me to show you where in the quran. It's in there find it yourself.

Muslims are members of a peace loving religion, yes, when was the last time you saw a Quaker Terrorist? Haw about an Amish Terrorist, or for that matter any other religion promoting terriorist actions?? NEVER, we need to rid our country of these bastards before they kill more of us or our inocent children. They are killers, all of them our no good. I was up in Michigan when 911 happened, they had to send in FBI and State Police to quiet Dearborn down aftger the towers fell, becouse their celibrating was drawing too much attention to them! They were dancing in the streets and yelling in Arabic about how Alah had helped defeat the US and made hero's out of the Highjackers! These are the same people that now are complainig about Lowes! God Bless Lowes! It was too bad George Bush Seinor didn't have any balls to have deported all the Muslim terrorist bastards out of America, or at least let us have a shot or two at them!

If these American Muslims want to be taken seriously and not be associated with terrorists they should not whine about every little thing that they say is racist and condemn the radicals when they do they horrific things they do ,you cant have it both ways

12/18 anon 1051 in response to 1013.

You answered yes, So I take this is you hate all Muslims, right?

Lets just say Sarah Foxwell's name was Mahdaya, you would have said, oh to he** with her, she isn't worth my time because she is Muslim so therefor a terrorist?

From all the responses, I am trying to gather if the majority of you hate all Muslims or just a select few?Take the whole TLC and Lowes situation out of the equation and think about this. Before you start name calling or insinuating my significant other is Muslim.
We are very American, very conservative, BUT we don't hate someone because someone blew up buildings in the name of their God. Seems kind of racist in a weird sort of way.
I suppose I expected more out of my fellow man.

Good post Joe, a real eye opener.
