On Amazon chat and on telephone recording, Amazon customer service agents are seen in chat screen grab, and heard on the phone, telling customers who inquire about buying a Confederate flag that the feds are preventing Amazon from doing it. Why are they saying this?

The government where that amazon worker lives bans flags so she just went with the government orders option. Nice work amazon. Got to keep non Americans employed.

Regardless of the validity of this video there's no doubt the left is becoming more authoritarian suddenly...

"Like Hitler, the authoritarian left wing nut cases will be happy to start getting rid of statues, books, movies, tv shows, songs, art work, phrases and anything else they deem as offensive and yes...it can all happen in a matter of days. If the government says so, it will be done. We are officially living under a tyrannical dictatorship in a police type state with mentally ill leaders who are drunk with power."

I had stopped being a conspiracy nut until the last couple of weeks or so.. that so many large businesses all stop selling confederate flags all at the same time shows how much power and control they have... it's literally total control. They're doing it in a very stealthy manner too... hardly a mention of it in the mainstream media...

The point is people are being forced to follow government rules or told their states funds will be withheld. How would you like this kind of force if Republicans were in charge?

The states who didn't want free medical care, the people actually want to pay, theses states are being given higher premiums, is this fair?

Amazing how far you people will let your President go and not even ask questions of your own party.....you people should be

You people?? My President?? How many ASSumptions are you going to make in one off topic post? How did another silly thread about the confederate flag become all about Obamacare?

The Confederate flag should be taken down FROM ALL GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS. It doesn't belong there if it isn't the National Flag or State Flag. The only exception being the POW/MIA flag. If you want to fly it in front of your house, displayed on your person or vehicle, tatooed on your head, have at it. That flag HAS NO BUSINESS displayed in front of a building paid for by my tax dollars. BTW, I'm southern born and bred, and the confederate flag is NOT a part of my heritage.

Amnd the decision by Walmart, amazon and other retailers to stop selling merchandise with the confederate flag on it is a business decision. Pure and simple. I'm sure you can find plenty of other businesses that will provide you with the flag. You'd better stock up, since the gubmit is going to confiscate them, along with your guns.

And guess what? WE PAY FOR THE UNINSURED ANYWAY. What about that do you geniuses not understand? They flood public hospitals for non emergencies, and guess who foots the bill? Think hard.

This...

It is amazing to me how many people consider stuff they see on youtube to be true or representative of law or facts.

Anybody can take their phone and make a video and post it on youtube.

Sorry if it offends but it is sad at how dumb society has become with technology.

What a guy. Badgering and harassing an Indian call center employee who says she doesn't know the reason (@ 2:40) and tries to pass him to the legal department.
