eBay, Amazon Pulling Down Confederate Flag Merchandise- NAZI Flags OK--UPDATED
June 25, 2015
Calling it a “contemporary symbol of divisiveness and racism,” eBay said Tuesday that it will ban the sale of Confederate flags and similarly themed merchandise.
“This decision is consistent with our long-standing policy that prohibits items that promote or glorify hatred, violence and racial intolerance,” said eBay spokeswoman Johnna Hoff.
The e-commerce company is the latest to prohibit the sale of Confederate merchandise following Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Sears Holdings Corp. The shooting deaths of nine black church members last week in South Carolina has reignited debate on what the flag symbolizes.
TIME reports that Amazon is also pulling down its Confederate flag merchandise.
You can however still buy NAZI Flags, as I guess 20 million deaths are that important to EBAY
