Happy Eid al-Adna, America
Pagan Holiday Upstages Thanksgiving & Christmas
Electronics Giant Celebrates Islam
Is America becoming a Muslim nation? Has the tide of history turned against the Christians and Jews living in the land of the free and the home of the brave? Will Islamic law eventually become the law of the land?
The answer to all of the above is yes.
Proof comes with the holiday ads from Best Buy that will be inserted in every leading newspaper throughout the country this Thanksgiving.
The ad makes scant mention of Thanksgiving, other than to urge people to “Shop Thanksgiving Day”. Best Buy does however; “Wish all Muslims throughout the country a “Happy Eid al-Adna.”
Best Buy knows business trends and the potential pool of new consumers, especially immigrants who have arrived in the U.S. over the past decade.
And the most rapidly rising populace is neither black nor Hispanic but rather Muslim.

Thanks to Ted Kennedy.
They really are. Their stores have gone way downhill over the last 4 years...amazing how bad they have become and their managers are just pure sh-t these days. I am great friends with 2 “former” people who were “phased” out and replaced by hacks.
Same here. I just fired off an email from their main website. Not that it will do any good, but I'll take my business elsewhere since they won't remove the greeting from the ad anyway.
New Egg is better anyway
Just because someone writes a book, doesn’t mean it is true. I have heard the author speak; I think he is spreading disinformation.
Problem in MANY if not ALL areas is Best Buy is one of the only places a person can go into to buy music, movies, and video games all under one roof. Music chains have been phased out. Best Buy doesn’t even consider those items money makers...it is the warranty’s, television sets, stereo’s, and appliances.
A company is free to cater to any group of potential customers in the hope of getting their business. But it’s a good idea to not alienate the other groups of customers in the process.
And their service here is terrible. I went with my daughter to buy a computer. Of course, they didn’t have the one she wanted in stock, though they had one on display. It took forever to get someone to even tell us that.
What the hell is wrong with these people. Cross Best Buy off of my shopping list.
Oh, I’ll enter Best Buy often.
I’ll take up the sales clerk’s time, ask alot of stupid questions, ask more stupid questions, and clog up the works.
Then, I’ll leave without buying anything.
My goal is to do that once a month, or until no one approaches me.
Then, it’ll be the next person’s turn.
Oh no — I liked my local store and the employees. Store open on Thanksgiving - not great but they would not be alone. But those good wishes to Muslims! Geesh — how desperate must they be! Or is Best Buy owned by Muslims???
Best Buy sucks. I avoid them anyways.
if they refuse to say “Merry Christmas,”

There’s sure to be a Islamic “holey day” around Christmas time that they can celebrate...
“Happy Mo Day” be sure to come to our gigantic sale on Christmas Day...
Happy Holidays from Snuffy’s Pig Parts BBQ Buffet!
(ask about our Ramadan lunch specials...)
I e-mailed them and ripped them apart over this — and will not set foot in their stores again.
What are you talking about?
They announced three years ago that, while their employees are not barred from saying “Merry Christmas,” they will not use the phrase on the corporate level. A new e-mail from the exec who originally made that decision seemed to affirm the position. “Christmas” offends, but Kwanzaa, Ramadan and now Eid-al-Adah are just fine. I say, let the Muslims and the Kwanzaaites put them in the black for the year, but I know not many Christians will go along with a boycott.
Anyone notice the Angels and Demons promo next to the ad?
That movie slammed the Catholic church.
