I would make a bet if you asked the regular person out on the street about these boycotts 99 out of 100 would have no idea what you are talking about...they are just trying to get through life..and again they don't give a hoot anyway.

Would you buy something at Home Depot?

Kevcol, here is my take on all of this. One month on FR everyone said to support Starbucks because they are Pro 2nd amend. 2 months later boycott Starbucks because they support the homo movement.

One thread on FR said to support Lowes over HD, another thread said to boycott Lowes because they push the Girl Scouts (which they do).

Who can keep up with this crap??? I hate all boycotts by both sides whether it's against HD or Chik-Fil-A.

Srs, On FR over the last few months we are supposed to boycott Target, Amazon, General Mills, Starbucks, Home Depot, Jc Penny and I could go on and on.Pretty soon won't be able to buy from anyone.

Life is too short to go through life like this...I just buy what I want where I want (I'm not going to spend 4 hours in the store looking at every label to make sure it's not made by General Mills)

These boycotts are meaningless..all it does is make the person doing it feel a little bit better. HD near record sales and Lowes bad sales as another poster posted proves it.

You can do other things to make more of a difference such as working on getting in the right small gov't candidates for starters.
