Seems like the intention was to allow people to decorate tiles and put them up there or something.

It was clearly a corporation going out of it's way to damage their brand just so the head honchos could get their chuckles.

You all can have outrage over this, but most latinos voted for Trump. Most of them like Trump, dunno why people forgot

Not even in the same ballpark as close Clinton won the Latino vote by like 30+ at worst. It scares me how wrong and misinformed this post is.

Not agreeing with the poster, but I can't trust any polls that involve Trump.

This is just silly.

The most polls were off (Wisconsin) was 7-8% not the 35-40+% they'd nerd to be off to say Trump won the Latino vote.

Has Home Depot submitted their wall quote to Washington DC?

 

[Machina]

It isn't possible to be that tone deaf. This was very intentional

 

[BudokaiMR2]

You think that the sales reps for Home Depot were trying to subtly send a message about the Trump wall and seriously damage their brand just for the lulz?

Not everyone thinks about what everyone can be possibly feeling/thinking about every possible interpretation about everything all the time

LMAO!

Oh wait, you're serious...

You acted like one needs to be psychic to see that a big wall display at a Latino festival from Home Depot of all places is a bad idea. It's not like it was a cornerstone of a presidential campaign and supported by the company's co-founder. You have no room to call anyone stupid.

If you think that a company as large as Home Depot knowingly, and on purpose, was trolling a Latin music festival for the lulz, you aren't just stupid - you're a dropped-on-the-head-repeatedly can't-do-simple-arithmetic imbecile.

Xicanos ain’t taking it. What you’d expect.

The community gets stuff done, full stop. The only reason there's a Ruido Fest in the first place is because of community feedback that Riot Fest was using park space in Latinx neighborhoods (this was back when Riot Fest was held in Humboldt Park, which has historically been the home to many of Chicago's Puerto Ricans), but not doing enough to give back.

This is a plot device straight from Arrested Development.

This is so perfect.
