Companies said they were recalling 'Freedom Series' items labeled 'Made in USA' and feature guns and eagles

Harris Teeter and Kroger are facing backlash for a decision to remove patriotic products after people complained.

A customer took to Twitter Monday to complain about Harris Teeter selling some pro-America items — that read "Give me liberty or give me death" and "America, love it or leave it" — saying they were insensitive as mass shooting incidents happen around the country.

"Why are you allowing this type of item to be sold at your grocery store in Huntersville NC? Clearly in light of the recent mass shootings, you can understand how this IS NOT a good idea," the Twitter user wrote.

Who is to say the initial guy that posted that on Twitter wasn’t trolling them?

I am sick to death of asshole companies and gov entities stopping everything because one PC commie bastard whines about it!

We should be complaining how hostile all the BLM and homo LGBT garbage is to US, and make them get rid of it.

Are you saying the good CFA, or the woke CFA?

10 years ago. It was great. But they caved in 2019 to homos and then literally kissed the dirty feet of BLM rapper during the riots.

I heard on the radio that iHeartRadio investigated when there were 15000+ “people” complaining and threatening to protest and boycott and they found it that in reality it was coming from 32 accounts. The 32 accounts were probably from 16 actual people.

This is also not a “fallacy of logic”
Not criticizing, just edumacating

You failed to edumacate me by just telling me I’m wrong again. Your working definition and example would have been nice...if that’s too much trouble for you, I’ll be moving on.
