Where is the Confederate Flag lobbyist to fight against this ban?

This started when white person goes into church kills black people with gun.

No where did I see the flag kill someone.

Weak lobbyists weak. Come on NRA showing you up!

Like I was telling a friend yesterday...this knee-jerk reaction is just the thing this government needed to take attention off the new Pacific Rim trade agreement. I was really sceptical when all these conspiracy nuts kept going on and on about how the media would divert attention when a major crisis popped up to something stupid. But, on my own, I started paying attention to when certain major events happened and how the media responded and holy damn, they weren't 100% right but they were on to something. It wasn't every time but it was a good 8 times out of 10. See, I don't watch tv much at all anymore. In fact I wouldn't even have a tv if others in the house didn't watch it. But I seem to catch the headlines nearly every day at one time or another and do pay attention to the 'Trending' lists on various sites, like Facebook, which tend to mirror what the media is blabbing on about at the current time. I noticed that in the last two weeks, there hasn't been a peep about ISIS anywhere. Nothing about the Ukraine. Nothing about Syria, Libya or Korea. Why is that? Because they're too busy discussing how evil this stupid flag is.

I mean, in a government institution, no. That should have never been allowed, especially in 2015. But to ban it outright, like Germany with anything to do with Nazi's and the Swastika? Dumb. Lame. Completely stupid...

The flag should absolutely be banned from state governments and public spaces paid for by tax dollars.

No one was calling for private businesses to stop selling the flag. I don't know what pressure they were under to do this, but it's their business decision to do it.

im guessing the flag will feature in various factual apps too.
Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

PR-trendy historical shaming.

It is surprising. It absolutely should never have been tolerated being flown on government buildings. To do so should have been viewed as an act of sedition and dealt with accordingly. Private companies are a different matter, though, and while I can see why places like Amazon and Walmart stopped selling the actual flags, to simply ban anything containing the image is not just stupid, but actually harmful.

This is was a free country and banning a flag because someone took the wrong meaning from it is beyond ridiculous. Have they never heard of free speech?

There, I fixed it for you.

There is no such thing as free speech any more. The thought police are everywhere. This country is a giant hypocritical pile of shit now.

I guess that's fair, as after all, I banned anything that says "Apple" on it from my house long ago...;)

This is just a stupid overreaction. Legitimate Civil War games are being banned.

Agreed. By banning a flag because of one incident they're making the shooter famous and a martyr.
