AMAZON has reportedly BLOCKED sales of Proud Boys shirts with the words "stand by" or "stand back" on them.

Shirts with the the far-right extremist group's logo, along with the phrases "stand back" and "stand by" have been pulled from the site, the company confirmed to The Sun.

They cite the reason as this:

Amazon did not specify exactly what policy the products violated – but seller guidelines prohibit "offensive and controversial materials."

Prohibited items include "promote, incite or glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual or religious intolerance or promote organizations with such views," according to Amazon's Seller Central.

Yet it took me 5 seconds to find this on amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Christianity-Religion-Atheist-Shirt/dp/B07Q4G7CQ8/ref=sr_1_6

So did Amazon just open the door for people to demand they take down crap like this "F*ck jesus" shirt?

Hmmmm...

Proud Boys are one of the few groups standing up for freedom and western civilization.

President Trump owes them an apology.
Tonight he condemned them while admitting he didn’t know anything about them.

Make your own with iron-on paper and t-shirts. Or order right from their own website, because I’m sure they’re offered.

"far-right extremist group"

Huh? What the F? We need more defamation lawsuits.

I'm still waiting to hear about "Antifa, a far-left extremist group".

If the Proud Boys shared a platform with the BLM today (or so I heard) - they are at least guilty of associating with bad characters.

Me too, and I’m a girl.

They need to come up with “Proud Boy Supporter” for the women.

Since when did normal Americans that support the constitution become “far right”?

I agree, Hannity should have informed POTUS who and what Proud Boys are first. THIS IS YOUR BASE, and not one bit racist.

I don’t know anything about the group...why would I condemn them on the media’s say so?

How are they white supremacist?

A serious question which needs to be asked...

And Trump needs to make an ad with all the times he has denounced white supremacy

Yeah...that was a little disappointing. He doesn’t know them. It still makes me wonder how many around him he can trust. I took it as “I condemn all white supremacist groups, if that’s what they are I condemn that.”. Hopefully he’ll see FR and realize :)

He should get ahold of their leaders and get a group of their colored people in the Oval Office, go live on TV with them with a big smile :) “I’m here with the PROUD BOYS!”

...media would fall over itself.

What exactly is "far-right extremist" about Proud Boys? They support the Constitution and the Armed Forces. They oppose ANTIFA and BLM.

What makes them far-right? Flag waving patriots are now the pariahs of the MSM, Democrats, and Communists at large. They are to be condemned? Sheesh...

Everyone should post this article everywhere (Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, etc). There must be a way to get the TRUTH out to American voters being baldly lied to by the media.
