173. A friend's response to Lumber Liquidators
after their poor response. My friend wrote (the beginning is a quote from LL's response):

______________

"Lumber Liquidators does not endorse or support the comments made by the program participants or their advertisers." This is a weak and non-thinking, non-committal excuse.

Do you believe it's smart business to advertise on a program whose host has such a long history of racist, homophobic, misogynistic, and xenophobic views? Add inarguably un-patriotic to that list with his recent comments regarding our president. I find your position equally distasteful and hateful. You and like businesses alienate the customer base you refer to below by sponsoring such programs.

Please be assured I'm forwarding your response to like-minded citizens and posting it as widely as possible in appropriate forums.

______________

Rock on, my fellow liberals:-) It feels GREAT to be heard, no matter what the companies decide to do.
