The #Occupy St. Louis criminal movement and Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) joined forces to harass shoppers inside Lowe’s on Sunday.
The leftists were protesting Lowe’s for dropping support for the “All-American Muslim” television program.
It’s not clear what this has to do with evil banks and capitalism, but whatever. It’s not like this criminal movement has made any sense anyway.
KMOV reported:
Members of Occupy St. Louis and the Council on American-Islamic Relations joined forces Sunday afternoon to protest outside the Kirkwood Walmart and Lowe’s over advertising dispute.
Organizers say they are protesting Lowe’s decision to pull its advertising funds from TLC’s television series “All-American Muslim”. Protesters are accusing Lowe’s of pulling the ads after pressure from the Florida Family Association.
Lowe’s officials say the program brought up a “lightning rod” of complaints and they didn’t want their ads to be associated with the controversy.

I hope these guys never go away.
That was so obnoxious.
RWGinger commented:
The stupidity of the OWS is astounding. That they would aling themselves with the very people who want to kill them is beyond words.
Highlander commented:
It “has to do” with these peoples’ mistaken belief that they have a right to tell businesses how to run their businesses.
KMOV Lied commented:
That is INSIDE the store.

What’s the end story?? What happened? Police clear out the scum? Shoppers with CCW shoot the scum?

Fat, ugly, stupid, and no fashion sense. What’s left for them but misdirected anger.

Spend money at Lowes.

The fat sister of Michael Moore is wearing a cookie monster knit hat made for a 5 year old as she blow horns her anger….She belongs in a mental ward…one with unionized $40 per hour nurses who will make their brothers and sisters feel at home.
Timwi commented:
I sure feel sorry for those kids. One of those woman is the mother apparently. Did they imagine the unwashed, sweatpants look would cause others to want to join in with them? I hope CPS checks into the living condition of those children. If the women look like that when they go out like that imagine the conditions the children are living in.

The cable show gets a 0.4 rating. There are 77 other cable shows with better ratings.

I can’t tell if that is Michael Moore’s sister, Michael Moore himself or Rosie O’Donnell in the cookie monster hat.
Sam Stone commented:
I SWITCHED from Home Depot to Lowes because they dropped their ads from that propaganda show.

“Hey, man. It’s all about those 10-penny nails. Who they hell do they think they are? Better than those 8-penny nails? Hell no!”
“And white PVC tubing? Racist, man. Tell me why you can’t buy BLACK PVC tubing? You can’t cause it’s racist.”
And what about those screws, dude? You have to turn them to the RIGHT to make them work. It’s a conservative plot. Turn a screw to the left and it TAKES IT RIGHT OUT just like Lowe’s want to TAKE THE LEFT RIGHT OUT! It’s all true, man.”
Occupy aisle 6! Occupy aisle 6!
martha commented:
Not only do we have freedom OF religion, we also have freedom OF association, if Loews does not want to be associated with a particular show they have every right to do so.
Would these moonbats be upset if Lowe’s pulled their ads off of Fox News? Oh, wait……….
St Louis Commercial Cleaning commented:
What happened? Were they thrown out of the store?
Dave-O commented:
I wonder how the morbidly obese “she-man” would like it if I stuck a bullhorn up against her ear and yelled into it. Do I have the same right to do that as they do?
Jonah Vark commented:
I’m going to make a trip to Kirkwood Lowe’s tomorrow and make a purchase to show them my support. Anyone else? How about another BUYcott?
cal rifkin commented:
Until everyone turns on ‘em, they’ll keep coming back…The LSM and the dims are supporting them and should be held responsible.
krown commented:
All the folks that agree with Lowe’s should go and shop there everytime there is a protest even if it’s for a little item like duct or masking tape, show you’re support. It will show that if they protest more business for Lowe’s. They have no control over us
Sally commented:
“Being a tree is not ok. Hey Hey!”
huh?
Buy cott- absolutely.
Sally commented:
By the way- it looked like there were ~1? 20? protestors. They received hourly and national news coverage for 2+ days (and the coverage hasn’t yet stopped, so it may continue a few more days? weeks?)
In San Francisco, apparently (because we’d never know) ~ 40,000 Walk for Life marchers gathered yesterday. I didn’t hear a peep about it on the “news”….
I think this is particulary of news worthy b/c it is San Francisco.
I also think 40,000 is > 20.

Radegunda commented:
The Occupiers hate capitalism – but they want capitalist money directed to their own causes. And they’re too stupid to see the disconnect.
Molon Labe commented:
The media will ignore the Tea Party rallies that number in the tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, they ignore huge annual anti abortion rallies but cover loon protests that number under fifty.
No wonder no one cares about what the MSM says. They have no credibility.
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
As if Islamic oil shieks, and billionaires, aren’t pretty firmly part of the 1%. . . ?
ilikai commented:
Glad that Lowes yanked their ads, sad they also did it to Beck’s show on Fox.
zooomzooom commented:
Ah great reminder……….
Now I am going to Lowe’s to buy something…….I may not even need whatever it is I am going to buy, but spend I shall, and I will also be exercising my 2nd Amendment rights….
JUST BECAUSE I CAN.
I am my own %.
JKB commented:
That’s sad.
When she said they were there to promote tolerance, I wanted to shout back, you sure are trying my patience.
Souzak99 commented:
It seems to me that the majority of the comments fail to address that CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) was involved in the protest as well. But then again, that was probably their plan. Get the Occupy St. Louis crowd riled up and set them loose on Lowe’s and Walmart while CAIR sat back and let the Occupy crowd get all the flack for it. Who exactly were the instigators in this incident? I’d put all my money on CAIR.

Lowes will get more of my business for saying no to a tyrannical religion. God bless Lowes and buy more nails, plywood, shop vacs, screwdrivers, pressure washers, light fixtures, glue, tape, wrenches, and whatever else they sell. The OWS whiners can go home and get a job.

like i said, Barry is going to usurp the OWS via inserting Islamists
(waiting for the Black Panthers, Nation of Islam, Code Pink, etc, to
eventually be melded in) to more or less take over the movement
ala Muslim Brotherhood usurped the Freedom & Democracy Youth
Movement in Egypt..

MissJean commented:
I think that CAIR should quit before curiosity gets people to tune into the show. The Muslims featured on the show are as opinionated, ignorant and obnoxious in their way as other reality-TV families. The Muslim shrew who forces her convert fiance to get rid of his devoted old dog because Muslims “can’t” own dogs (which is news to the dog-owning Muslims in the same community) and the hypocrites who run a bar and drink despite alcohol being forbidden – these are not exactly the models of decent “all-American” behavior. I imagine if Muslims in other countries see it, they’ll think it reflects very poorly on Islam.
Josh commented:
These protestors are ignorant. If you listen to them, they are saying that bigotry is not ok. Tell them to go and protest Islam and their bigotry against anyone who does not accept what they believe. According to the Koran, a Jew or any nonbeliever is to be taxed extra and allowed to be a slave of a believer. Women are considered less than equals, just look at Shariah law and its treatment of women and Christians.
These protestors really are ignorant of the truth. They protect and promote a belief system that does not give equal rights to all people, nor does it allow me to own a Bible.
Patriot Act commented:
In my community, we have a Home Depot, a Menards, and a Lowe’s that provide more-or-less the same inventory. Not long after this idiotic controversy erupted, I made it my policy to go to Lowe’s first when looking for something, and if the price seems reasonable, look no further and buy it there.
It wouldn’t surprise me if their sales actually increased as a result of pulling their advertising.
Hera commented:
This tells me the muslim boycott of Lowes has flopped. Thus the escalation in tactics.
Mad Hatter commented:
Home Depot have openly supported ‘gay pride’ parades.
Lowe’s pulled their advertising from the All American Propaganda Family on TLC.
I’ll spend my money at Lowe’s over Home Depot 100% of the time.

WillofLa commented:
I have spent a lot of money at Lowe’s and I support their decision to pull their advertising for the unAmerican multiculturalism’s supported TV program the so-called “All-American Muslim”, which does not exist anywhere in America. They hate this country so much they would never act like they are so much an American that you couldn’t tell them from real American’s? Screw the Occupier’s and DEATH TO ISLAM, DEATH TO ISLAM, DEATH TO ISLAM!!!
Dave commented:
Anarchists don’t care who they associate or align with. That’s the reason that OWS and CAIR are on the same page. Overthrow the U.S. is what they both support. Of course the OWS don’t want to hear that if this was to happen that CAIR and it’s supporters would treat the OWS as infidels.

Muslim Children in America are Being Taught to Hate
[During my research I have identified numerous mosques that are
teaching young Muslim children to hate America and are leading
them to commit future violent acts against our country and innocent
people. I would like to focus on three such mosques. They are:
Dar al Hijrah, Falls Church, VA
Al Farooq, Nashville, TN
At Taqwa, Brooklyn, NY]
He noted that the three politicians’ campaign war chests are
heavily funded by radical Islamists who support the mosque.
