Yeah, but I’m cancelling my eBay store tomorrow. I sold over 1800 lots on their website and have a 100% rating but screw them.

I’ll go somewhere else.

As long as they’re not banning the American flag, I don’t care. They’re a private business. They can do what they want.

Sheep or lemmings? Either way, what a bunch of knee-jerk reactions.

And if they ban the American flag? Or the cross around your neck? Or camouflage clothing? Or your NRA hat? Eventually you’re going to run out of places to shop.

History of the Bonnie Blue Flag.

The first recorded use of the lone star flag dates to 1810.

On September 11, 1810 a troop of West Florida dragoons set out for the Spanish provincial capitol at Baton Rouge under this flag.

After a short battle they captured Baton Rouge, imprisoned the Spanish Governor and on September 23, 1810 raised their Bonnie Blue flag over the Fort of Baton Rouge.

Three days later the president of the West Florida Convention, signed a Declaration of Independence and the flag became the emblem of a new republic.

By December 10, the flag of the United States replaced the Bonnie Blue after President Madison issued a proclamation declaring West Florida under the jurisdiction of the Governor of the Louisiana Territory.

The West Florida Republic existed for 74 days.

With this rebellion in mind, this flag was used by the Republic of Texas from 1836 to 1839.

The Gadsden flag scares the Crap out of Liberals.

As it should.

For some reason the ISIS flag doesn’t?

How long before YOUTUBE scrubs their videos of Confederate flags? The Gadsden Flag?

I always new that the media in America held a great deal of control and influence. I never in my wildest dreams ever thought they would gain this much.

Nice; I like them (but not the ones with an eye-patch or crossed swords instead of bones).

I just verified that. Haven't tried to put any of them in my cart yet, but they're there.

Amazon is still selling.

E-Bay needs to die.

I don’t think it’s a flag. And, why did they cancel my order this afternoon?
