HOME DEPOT EMPLOYEE IS NOT GREAT IN U.S. HISTORY
Canada Free Press ^ | 05/21/16 | Jeff Crouere

Sadly, Ms. Lake is unaware of our proud history and what needs to be done to restore our country’s greatness. She does not appreciate our many freedoms and American exceptionalism

It is sad that so many of our young people today are clueless about our country’s distinguished history. In a troubling story this week that generated national headlines, a 22-year-old Home Depot employee, Krystal Lake, of Staten Island, New York, was pictured at work wearing a hat that read, “America Was Never Great.”

The disturbing image sparked an explosion of online comments from across the nation with people expressing both support and opposition to her political message. A Home Depot spokesman responded to the controversy by claiming that her hat was in violation of their company policy and that “no one on our management team saw her wearing the hat, otherwise they would have had her remove it immediately.”

She’s the perfect example of a liberal education.

Just like Obama. Indoctrinated. Ask the bimbo to define "great". You'd get a babbling rant of liberal mind vomit.

Ken Langone, one of the Founders of Home Depot, gave a great speech on the Millionaires of Home Depot

That young high School kids worked hard and moved up the ranks at home depot received stock and if it were a union shop they would have had to promote by Senority instead of performance which help Home Depot and the hard worker at Home Depot.

Thank God he supports the GOP.

In my Home Depot every PA announcement is in Spanish. I complained to the manager several times with no effect. Unfortunately we don’t have a Lowe’s.

You can call Home Depot and complain

1-800-HOME-DEPOT 1-800-466-3337

I called to ask if the story was true. Told the guy I was shocked that they allowed it. He replied that there was nothing in the rules saying she couldn’t wear something like that (not sure that is true) and they are working with her on the issue.

I told him I was shocked that she was still working there and hadn’t been fired. I explained to him that the message was very hurtful to many people. He just kept agreeing.

I was thinking about asking him if men could use the women’s bathroom in their stores.

Your evidence does identify her as Krystal Lake. There’s even a video interview with the person in the photo identifying her as Krystal Lake where she explains why she wore the hat.

see my post #25

You’ll see pic of the frowning bitter Leftie who furnished the hat. Some said she was a customer in line who put the hat on Krystal. Others say it is purely photoshopped. You make up your own mind.

The Frowning Bitter Leftist in some of the pics is the source. Pure agiprop.

I wish and hope the all the people like her would deport themselves from America before they destroy what is left of life, liberty, freedom and the pursuit of happiness purchased by our great Christian forefathers and the blood of millions shed to keep America safe from monsters and fools like her and her tribe.

The child has been brainwashed by communists within the school system. She might be a red diaper baby.

Yep, that is not Krystal in the Home Depot Photo. Your photo is of the bitter leftist perp behind this crap.

Please check out who is behind this crap before you call Home Depot. The Leftist perps behind this are laughing their A’s off at those who buy it hook line and sinker.

The older woman in the pics is the source of the cap and behind this. It is intended to cause a controversy. Krystal did not have the cap made. She is a prop.

This is Leftist agiprop caused by the “customer” (older woman).

Blacks do not like white America. I can never understand that whites cannot grasp that simple fact. They never forget they originated as our slaves and we never forget they were our slaves.

a 22-year-old Home Depot employee, Krystal Lake, of Staten Island, New York, was pictured at work wearing a hat that read, “America Was Never Great.”

She sounds like a Home Depot Employee I knew of in a small city in northern Illinois. His name is Statin Island. He works in Crystal Lake.
