I'm boycotting Walmart
 
They stopped selling the confederate flag because it offends some people.

When will they pull any music that has the N-word and worse in the lyrics?
I'm offended that they would sell this absolute crap!

So real classics on this list.

You're argument is pretty ridiculous since they only sell clean versions of albums already.

You're boycotting Walmart? Hmmm...if other like minded individuals join your boycott, that might class up the place a bit.

A clean version? That's the funniest thing I've heard today.
Oh yes that would be the version with no lyrics right?

even walmart knows walmart sucks. was listening to an interview of one of their execs, they've realized the superstore concept is a bad idea. people get weird.

me, i can't go >20 minutes in one, including checkout time.

The Confederate Flag made for a pretty hot dogfart scenario with Ashlyn Rae.

political correctness is ridiculous. Walmart better stop selling chinese crap because it affects more Americans in a real way.

2MuchMark 06-28-2015 07:03 PM

I hate Walmart and never go there unless absolutely necessary.

this isn't pc. walmart, sears, ebay, amazon and ALL leading retailers stopped offering it because the symbol is toxic and offensive.

plenty of shit you cannot buy major retailers because it's been deemed toxic and/or offensive.

I can be wrong, but isn't this flag about a statement about supporting slavery? Isn't this a symbol of racist/KKK people?

No, idiot, it's the CD with the radio edits.
Try to apply a little common sense before speaking.

Yet you can still buy merchandise glorifying a mass murderer:

Ya, I'm not really arguing against your point. But if we are into banning offensive and toxic items then Che memorabilia should be banned whether people are ignorant of who he was or not. Plenty of knowledgeable people are offended by it. Yet it will not be banned.

well, i hate that fucking shirt. :warning :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

i've never really sorted out how that shirt took off like it did. i assume it's because it is a striking image and people just like the look. i wouldn't have a prob if major retailers removed it from their inventories. there are plenty of small niche retailers where this sort of nonsense can be purchased.
