“Apple CEO to Global Warming Deniers: We Don’t Want Your Money

At the Shareholders meeting, NCPPR [National Center for Public Policy Research] asked Apple to pledge that Apple would not pursue environmental initiatives unless they helped increase profit. Cook did not hesitate. Even though some environmental policies can be good for the bottom line, “we do a lot of things for reasons besides profit motive,” Cook said. “We want to leave the world better than we found it.” And anyone who objects? “Get out of the stock.”

You’re a fool because you talk like a drunk in a redneck bar and dismiss excellent work by thousands of people who are no different from those working for any other computer company - all to indulge in your hate fetish against gays. All you accomplish by that is making a caricature of conservatism, which just so happens to be based on the Constitution, the free market, and privacy - not your bellowing bigotry.

If you’re not going to find the courage to admit that you want to execute gays for being gay, then shut the hell up and allow them to live in peace. Their existence is not the problem, their use as a front by socialism is the problem, and that’s true of every type of liberal.

Also, you find a computer made by a clean company, let me know. In the mean time, you just keep typing away on the net while using a computer assembled by Chinese communist slave labor, like they ALL are.

Sorry that life isn’t conveniently painted in blocks for you, but it’s NOT.

At the 2014 Shareholders meeting, NCPPR [National Center for Public Policy Research] asked Apple to pledge that Apple would not pursue environmental initiatives unless they helped increase profit. Cook did not hesitate. Even though some environmental policies can be good for the bottom line, “we do a lot of things for reasons besides profit motive,” Cook said. “We want to leave the world better than we found it.” And anyone who objects? “Get out of the stock.”

At the Shareholder meeting, Tim Cook was speaking specifically to the NCPPR representative, with their one share of stock, who was trying to get Tim Cook to make a statement disavowing the STOCK HOLDER's VOTE of 97-3 ratio just earlier that day REJECTING the NCPPR's proposal to ONLY spend company funds on projects and only join organizations that would have a positive impact on the company's bottom line.

Tim Cook, properly refused to reject the Stockholders' decision, after providing a list of things that Apple does like provide Braille support in iOS and OS X, Educational support to schools, scholarships, and ecological concerns, stated, looking DIRECTLY AT THE PERSON MAKING THE DEMAND, that if he did not like those things, he could take his investment elsewhere. IT was not directed to all Apple investors except in the NCPPR's propaganda piece. . . which was the sole source for that claim.

Others attending that question and answer session describe what happened just as I described above.

You seem to have an odd fixation on homosexuality.

It is said that many closet homosexuals who are repressed and embarrassed about what they are lash out in hate towards others they believe are homosexuals in an effort to draw attention away from themselves.

Normal people couldn't care less about another adult's sexual preferences so long as they are not "in their face" about it. What they do with other consenting adults is their own business. I don't see Tim Cook marching in any homosexual parades with a bare chest waving sex toys around. In fact, I don't think he's even spoken about the subject except maybe if it came up in an interview question.

They say hate is like drinking poison and expecting the object of your hate to die. Actually, hate is a very self-destructive emotion. The only person you hurt with hate is yourself. So good luck with that. I hope you find some peace in your life.

Getting back to the subject at hand, I have several ports on my MacBook Pro. I never had a situation where I needed more than one of them, and that was usually to plug in my iPod - the same iPod I've had since 2006. Everything else in my home is wireless. So the one USB port in the new MacBook makes sense to me.
