LOL.
Yeah, I’ve learned that politically incorrect modification technique, and even bought a set of extra long bits specifically for that purpose.
Some of these designs, however, make it impossible to correct without destoying the fixture.
I wish I had a nickel for everytime my wife has said,” Why do we have to have these @#$%$^& Algore toilets? You’re not saving any water when you have to flush four times.”
Most large corporations probably have politically-correct policies that we would object to, if the truth were widely known. If I boycott all of those, I probably won’t be able to buy much of anything. Sad state of affairs.
I hear you. The Lowe’s here is a good one. The employees very helpful and WANT to work at this store. Nice area. I can find everything I need. I use Ferguson and other Commercial distributors for big items or expensive copper or insulation because I have commercial accounts with them and they deliver but for everyday items like lawn and garden, pvc, small fixtures or lawn mower parts Lowe’s is great and only about a mile from home.
Home Depot with the exception of a few newer stores is not working out for a lot of people around here.
For “whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.” Matthew 18:6
And here is this little gem too:
http://jobs.aol.com/articles/printarticle/2009/10/28/home-depot-employee-fired/
“former cashier for The Home Depot who has been wearing a “One nation under God” button on his work apron for more than a year has been fired, he says because of the religious reference. The company claims that expressing such personal beliefs is simply not allowed.”
If you are going to have any work done on your home by a contractor, remember to insist in the contract that no materials used in or on your home are to be purchased at HD. When they ask why, hand them copies of articles like this. Sally and Sammy homeowner buying a gallon of paint here and there won’t make or break anyone. But when lots of contractors start boycotting them, it will leave a big old mark.

You can thank:
1) The ACLU.
2) Liberal activist “judges”.
3) Ignorant, race and class warfare minded juries.
But, but, I just love that Behr paint. Where else can I get it?
Haven’t been to Home Depot in years. Darn shame too ... the local one is run by a great guy ... as right wing as they get ... always ready with donations to my Knights of Columbus group and other organizations.
Lowe’s gets my business now. And local mom and pop hardware stores.
Well...........this lady was sure talking on her cell phone.
The links are unmistakeable. The Home Depot is a high-profile sponsor of This Old House, a show that has become a homosexual showplace on the "Pubic Broadcasting Station." This Old House magazine has recently, unapologitically featured homosexual couple-owned homes, displaying the couples, talking about their lives and "children." Unbelievable how they push this radical lifestyle as normal.
