Are those of you with Apple products enjoying Tim Cook's utter hypocrisy and tolerating the execution of homosexuals? Yeah, take another smiling selfie while another homosexual gets tossed off a building, alive. Hypocrites. /SMH
No dear, that is a Country locater is all. I've included some screenshots of what happens when you check it out though.
The first three are from the link that I gave you and the last is from the link that you gave me. The first photo shows you that there are available resellers in Qatar but no actual apple store. The second shows you that Saudi Arabia lacks even resellers. The third shows you that an offical online store is in the actual laungauge of the Country they are selling to. If you click on your link and a Country they are all in English. Pretty odd for a company to be selling to Nigeria, but they have the web store in English, no? . The last shows what happens you you click on a Country in link you gave me, and then try to click on the store button. I think that should tell you that Apple does not directly sell to any of those Countries .
Should you be subject to a lawsuit by the baker if you deceived him into betraying his religious conscious by him baking a wedding cake for you that was used for a gay wedding ceremony?
If they don;t want to sell wedding cakes to a sub set of the population , then they should not offer wedding cakes for sale.
That is hypocritical of Tim Cook. I use Apple exclusively for my work, and have done for many years. I'm not stopping now.
However, I'm disappointed that they do indeed do direct business in those very countries. That IS hypocritical. I would hope for better.
I don't agree with you that I in any way tolerate people getting tossed off buildings, simply because I use Apple products. Any more than I condone a thousand other contradictions of big industry who's benefits I reap. I don't live under a rock.
I'm not sure WTF Apple's reasoning is here. It's whack, I agree.
If they can do business in Saudi, they have no business boycotting Indiana. And trust me, it pains me greatly to say it.
The irony here is that so many people are going nuts over bakeries, churches, and the like denying services when those services are clearly available elsewhere in the same communities. But execute homosexuals? They have no problem with that. It's disgusting, and the priorities here are totally f*cked up when people think a cake or a wedding officiant is a bigger problem than execution.

Is Apple refusing to sell products in Indiana? If not, I don't see the hypocrisy.
They are selling to everyone, without regard to personal or religious beliefs. They are not holding individuals responsible for the actions of their governments. That is not discriminatory.
What Makes Indiana's Religious-Freedom Law Different?
The new statute's defenders claim it simply mirrors existing federal rules, but it contains two provisions that put new obstacles in the path of equality.
Somebody should tell Pence that when you're in a hole, stop digging. What an embarrassment he is to the good people of Indiana who do not discriminate.
Bravo to every, single company and sport's team who is voicing their objections to this discriminatory law.
Kudos to Josh Earnest, the press secretary, who called out Pence for lying about his law, it is nothing like the 1993 law that President Clinton signed.
At least Oklahoma has shelved all or nearly all of its dozen, or so, proposed bills that would legalize discrimination against GLBT people. They were worse than any other RFL, since they specifically named GLBT people. Hopefully, all this controversy in Indiana will help discourage Oklahoma Republicans from retrying the same bills next year.
You know, the same Apple that falsely claims they will never tolerate discrimination. No integrity. NONE.
Look at my post again. And see why you are wrong . If you aren't adult enough to look at it and admit it, then I, and no one on this board will take your opinions serious.

Very good point. I am very glad this has happened, especially since we now have Bush, Rubio, Cruz and Walker on record backing this discriminatory law, thereby making it a topic in any debates.
Pence is being made to backtrack, hope he chokes on it.
Come on 2016!!!
