Amazon has banned the selling of the Confederate flag and Confederate flag merchandise, multiple sources reported Tuesday.

Amazon followed other major retailers, including Wal-Mart (WMT) and Sears (SHLD), in banning sales of the Confederate flag. The Confederate flag has once again become toxic in the aftermath of a shooting last week at a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina.

I’ll probably cancel Amazon and eBay over this. I hope they don’t ask me why. It’ll get ugly at that point.

The GOP establishment is rushing to join the Democrat left to use this tragedy to do what they have been longing to do, to ethnically cleanse the South of its history.

Check you local flag store. Kinda like ammo prices after the lyin’ king goes on one of his screeds. Can you wear a shirt with “the flag” on it into walmart? How long before “the flag” is banned from use? You know a “code word” for racis’ everywhere.

Your local Flea Market has them in stock but after this supplies will be limited.

They (Amazon) just pulled them. I was looking at one, clicked on a “best seller” flag, and it was gone. Went back to the first one....gone.

This should be a clue for an enterprising person to get into the confederate flag business.

Sales should be quite brisk... and not much competition.

This is still for sale too. I wonder if reruns will be banned by all the P.C. networks?

N word, confederate flags, queer.

What is next to ban, Christian? Jesus? God?

I doubt if He will like being mocked.

I just canceled my Amazon account. Been buying from them for years but they cancelled my order for a Bonny Blue flag.

Screw them.

The left has succeeded in turning a symbol of states’ rights into a racist symbol, and banning the symbol of states’ rights under the guise of banning a racist symbol.

What is really needed is for you (and the rest of us) to come up with lists of offensive items, that they still sell. Informing them we will not be shopping at their site anymore until these offensive items are banned.
