Lowes Pulls Advertising from TLC Show Depicting Muslims as Ordinary People

[vesta111]

Would they accept advertising from Jimmy Dean to prove their inclusiveness.

Who's money is this anyway ???? Anyone who has the money to advertise their wares has the right to decide who they want to support with their dollar.  One PAYS to advertise in news papers, and some even pay to advertise for and at kids games etc.

Now had Lowe's found out the program had graphic sex and porno and pulled their adds, we would applaud them.

When Lowe's decides they find it objects to any content that their name is linked to---they have just as much right to pull their support as do the company's that advertise on the racers cars at a track.   

Does it matter why or for what reason Lowe's pulled their ads, They can do so as they have that right. It matters not if the real reason is racial, religious bigotry or just because they do not like the size of the producers feet of a program.

If I own a company and all my workers hate Asparagus, I can pull my endorsement on a program that shows the benefits of eating that vegetable and wants to force my school kids who do not care for that food to eat Asparagus's

Americans do have the right to personal bigotry on anything be it towards others life styles and spend their money on the things they approve of.  This is America, we have the RIGHT to associate with like minded, like race, like social status, and not be forced to except  or finance those we may not approve of.

Imagine if we who have a problem with OWC and their ilk were forced to give our money to their cause.

Lately the Catholic has begun to advertise for men and woman to join their calling.   Costs the Church to advertise and if they find an off shot of a network is devoted to religious programs that preach that Catholics will go to hell, the Church has every right to pull their money out of that network and its off shoot.

Muslim networks will soon spring up, I cannot see Smithfield Hams supporting them.  Nor can I see  Jewish Kosher foods running to advertise on their network.    Be prepared for the Muslim Unions to support the programs, those that work in the Muslim Kosher butcher shops..   

Bag of worms this is and the worms have morphed into Cobras.

You have to ask who this show was aimed at. Are Muslims a big enough demographic that they would get any viewers? Sounds less like making money and more like indoctrination to me.

Its funny that they have to hunt down "peaceful muslims" with cameras, the only Muslims you see otherwise are the news because of violence. Why not record the average muslim instead of this random family living in michigan? Oh thats right, because the average muslim doesn't fit in with the liberal agenda.

We hate violent assholes who won't leave people the **** alone. It takes a lot to make an American sufficiently agitated enough to get off the couch and away from his Sunday football game. We don't go around busting Buddhists, atheists, Hindus etc. I doubt the Islamists of the world care enough to ask what it is that they have done to so gain our attention and intractable hostility.

Well in another thread I said that Arab-American people should really switch to Christianity. If you want to be an American patriot you wont ever do it by being a Muslim because being a Muslim means that Americans need to work around you. so if Arab-Americans are true patriots they would not folllow the religion of people the USA is fighting against right now are of.

Also seeing as the Muslim world gets angry when someone draws a cartoon of their prophet it is obvious they have serious problems tolerating other opinions.

I think it also shows a deep insecurity in their faith. 

Christians get bashed all the time.  Liberals make fun of our "sky daddy," the "magical Jesus," the "cloud buddies."  It bothers me not in the least. 

I know another Iranian who would like to see Muslims convert to Christianity.  His name around the Internet is Ali Sina.
