What's with the idiocy over "Saudi gas?" Most oil imported by the US comes from Canada and Non OPEC countries, while 100% of Apple's products sold and serviced in countries that execute gays comes 100% from Apple.

Apple and whoever owns/uses their products are FAR more guilty of supporting the execution of gays than is someone using mostly non-Saudi gas.

I can't believe how stupid liberals are about the false "Saudi gas" canard. The ignorance is STUNNING.

Live by your words... DITCH your Apple products and boycott Apple. Simple... unless one is a DEADLY HYPOCRITE.

nice article, jumps right into comparing gays with pedophilia. Nice.



I'm sure Mr. Cook believes in Religious freedom, but your freedom doesn't allow you to discriminate against others because some fictional god said it was good or bad.


and i'm curious about the thinking here. . .So we can't strive to do better in our country than other countries? Seriously? Oh - Tim you sell products to Saudi Arabi so how dare you push for change in the f'n country you live in.

wtf. .

If they really cared about these issues they would stop purchasing products from the companies you mentioned. But they will never do that because it's too inconvenient. It's much easier to be angry about wedding cakes and ignore the elephant in the room.
Exactly so. And that's how you can tell that those hypocrites have no integrity whatsoever.

Indeed, he is. Had he not publicly condemned Indiana's law while remaining silent on the execution of gays in the countries in which Apple does business, he wouldn't be. But he stuck his foot in his mouth and exposed to the world how hypocritical he really is.

Using a similar rationale, one would expect Hobby Lobby to stop selling products which are 'Made in China'.

Are you under the impression we do not import any oil from OPEC? I don't think you are in a position to call anyone ignorant. You better move to a cave if you don't want to be a deadly hypocrite by your own standards.

You have been parroting this for two days now. You don't like Cook. We get it. No one cares what you think about him.

Yes, this is true. And that's why Cook is a hypocrite. He protests about a gay wedding cake while saying nothing about killing gays.

Why is killing gays in the mid east less evil than refusing to bake a gay cake?
