Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis

Just wanted to give everyone an update regarding the online ordering. Our website has gotten so much traffic that our host’s server crashed. As of right now, we haven’t been able to receive any online orders that were placed last night through this morning, but as soon as it’s back up and we can access the orders, we will start filling them as soon as possible.

Thanks to all of your support, we continue to keep selling out of t-shirts, but we do have more on the way that will be back in stock this afternoon and tomorrow!

We’ve received numerous calls and emails and we promise we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Thanks so much for your patience!

So it crashed because they couldn’t handle the traffic as opposed to it being shut down.

Were obama t-shirts and website banned as well?

If not, sue into oblivion. And then some.

During BO’s reign, children were singing propaganda songs about him, flying his flag and wearing his shirts at the support of all schools.

Conservative children and their families are NOT being treated the same and are being violently discriminated against. Hold those responsible financially accountable.

Probably had bandwidth limits get exceeded.

When Trump tweets your website, you need to immediately up your hosting plan from a $5-10/mth cheapo plan to the $200/mth plan.

Site wiped out with massive order demand from across the entire country. Moderate Democrats & Blue Dog Democrats are crying in the streets. Like “Founder” in the great movie “Animal House” these Moderates and Blue Dogs trusted Nancy Pelosi, and worse then the idiot Pelosi they trusted “Adam “Lie Teller” Schiff!!! Not too bright these Moderate Blue Dog folks!!!

Yep, it can happen when you get hit hard and fast. Or it can be mistaken for a DDoS attack and shut it’s self down to protect it’s self.

Ya think that the President has any support?

He mentions this effort, and BOOM {hannity, this is what a BOOM sounds like}, the site crashes and they sell out of product.

Nah, he ain't got no deplorable support.

They are still probably using a hosting service for the site. I suspect the huge instant boost in traffic was mistaken as a DDoS attack by the automatic server security safeguards.
