It seems that the do-it-yourself giant Lowes pulled ads from a Muslim reality show &#8220;All-American Muslim&#8221; after an advocacy group &#8220;Florida Family Association complained that the show was &#8220;propaganda that riskily hides the Islamic agenda&#8217;s clear and present danger to American liberties and traditional values.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So some California State Senator, Ted Lieu, D-Torrance is calling for a boycott of Lowes because the retail giant&#8217;s decision is &#8220;un-American&#8221; and &#8220;naked religious bigotry&#8221;.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We want to raise awareness so that consumers will know during this holiday shopping season that Lowe&#8217;s is engaging in religious discrimination,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to an apology and reinstatement of the ads, Lieu said he hoped Lowe&#8217;s would make an outreach to the community about bias and bigotry.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So a company isn&#8217;t allowed to make decisions based on their consumers&#8217; wishes without some government moron interfering. Last I heard, Lieu had to change the privacy settings on his Facebook page because he was getting so much criticism yesterday. So he can&#8217;t handle criticism much like Lowes.
