BOYCOTT! The Home Depot promotes the homosexual agenda For several years, The Home Depot has given its financial and corporate support to open displays of homosexual activism on main streets in America's towns.
Rather than remain neutral in the culture war, The Home Depot has chosen to sponsor and participate in numerous gay pride parades and festivals. Most grievous is The Home Depot's deliberately exposing small children to lascivious displays of sexual conduct by homosexuals and cross-dressers, which are a common occurrence at these events.
Judge for yourself by reviewing the photos below, taken during recent homosexual events sponsored by The Home Depot. Should The Home Depot be helping advance the homosexual agenda? And more importantly, will you choose to boycott The Home Depot?

Sorry, I will not. I love my Home Depot store. Lowe’s in my area sucks. I wish we had Menard’s in South Carolina. Home Depot also has donated millions of dollars of tools to our troops in Iraq/Afganistan.
go to Lowe’s. They’re better.
LOL!
That and Tony (an old friend’s grandson) is not sponsored by them anymore.
That ooogly color is why we never bought any of his stuff.
a. They don’t have it.
b. They can’t find it.
c. They have no idea what you are talking about.
d. That aisle is closed because they are restocking.
That's why I go to Menard's
a. They have it
b. They can get it if it's not there right now
c. They know what it is when you ask
d. Even when restocking aisles, you can get through, and if not, they will get it for you.
Home Depot also gives discounts to veterans. I don’t like the idea of boycotts except for the liberal media.
I do anyway. Their service has sucked (no pun intended) for years.
Flyover country to rest of world: no Menard’s here, but we do have a Lowe’s 20 minutes away.
e. all the registers are closed and only one self-checkout is working.
For later
Not everyone who works at HD sucks, but how about the Home depot loading help....
I had back surgery for a ruptured disk in 2007 and after waiting by the truck for 20 minutes several times I start loading it myself and they finally send out some kid who cant even lift a sack of concrete and drags it across the tailgate ripping the sack so I fired him and just finished loading the 27 sacks of concrete myself.....thats what you get for minimum wage
You mean Home Depot has a Womens affinity group?
Well, crap!!!
NOW you can count me in on that there buycott!!
The last time I was in HD it looked like people had voted with their feet already!
Unfortunately this is true for almost all of the big box stores. For example: you buy a Husky Power Washer from Home Depot. It has a Husky label on it, and a owner's manual with a model number, etc. But, good luck finding parts numbers, getting parts, or anything else except simple stuff like hoses and connectors. Home Depot buys them by the railroad car load and each lot is built for them at a negotiated rock bottom price so the manufacturer basically produces a knock off of his own product. And that Honda engine powering the whole contraption - same thing.
I takes the Lowes road, myself. We have both in our area, and an Ace not far away that’s also excellent.
Currently I am rehabbing the house, so I am buying lots of stuff. The last time I went to Home Dipshits I had about $600 worth of plumbing fixtures and fittings in the cart. When I went to checkout, the ONLY checkouts open were the self serve ones. I asked what the discount was for doing their work for them and they thought I was rude to ask such a question.
I left the cart right there in the middle of the isle, and said as loud as I can . . .
“Screw this! I am going to Lowes!”
“I believe, but have no evidence, that even the big brands like Delta, Rubbermaid, etc... have cheaper versions of the same product, made just for Home Depot.”
They are. I am sorry that at this moment I can’t remember where I learned that, but they are.
Is it for active duty only or for any veteran? Can you elaborate on what is accepted as evidence?
LOL! Are you gringo or you could pass as one of em’?
A military ID card that denotes active, guard, reserve or retired status is accepted. My wife shows her dependent ID and gets the 10% as well.
They should have a notice posted near the register or customer service counter. Or you could just ask one of the CS reps and they can clue you in on any other status such as non-retired veteran.
