AMAZON pulls down a flag, but sells shirt of a mass murderer of the Americas
I may start a Confederate/Dixie themed store even though I’m not really a Southerner.
You know, it’s only going to be a matter of time before we see a backlash to this ‘tyranny of hysteria’ and there’s a SHOW THE CONFEDERATE FLAG ‘freedom of speech’ demonstration somewhere.
That’s an idea! Start a petition...
I ordered a Confederate flag, my first, off Amazon this afternoon. I will fly it if they have a “burn the flag” day.
ISIS flags, Korans, Nazi battle flags, Malcolm X crap, Che Guerrera shirts....
Totally anti-American gross hypocrisy of the radical left.
When will REAL AMERICANS get fed up with these scum bags??
Normally I only fly Texas battle flags on my pole, but in light of all this I am going to fly my CSA Naval Jack tomorrow.
If they can do this 1st Amenment violation to the Stars n` Bars, they shure as h__ will find it as an excuse to do it to Don`t Tread On Me. Watch Out.
AINT IT JUST WONDERFUL?
Are they removing Gone With The Wind DVDs?
I am not sure it is a violation of the First Amendment. The government is not saying that you personally can’t have the flag. They are taking it down on public land. Stores are using their First Amendment rights which allows them decide what they want to sell. I don’t agree with the merchants but it is not a First Amendment hit.
Amazon just lost me as a customer.
I got one off eBay. The had sold over 600 in one hour alone.
There’s a large, bronze statue of mass-murderer Lenin in Seattle with not a peep of protest.
How long before they start replacing our heroes with him- & pieces of crap like Che Guevara, that Mumia Guy, & the Weathermen? Or Woody Guthrie & that b*tch, Joan Baez.
Tyranny breeds hatred.
Well, at least my right to get a big ol’ gay wedding cake anywhere I darn well please is protected.... /sarc.
And hatred breeds tyranny.
Can you please walk us through the actual text of the first amendment and explain how it is being violated in this case?
