Rebel flag apparel still sold in OC stores, if you can find it

Every so often an issue strikes a particular public nerve that leads to a cascade of criticism not necessarily related to the root cause, but affecting people not because of what beliefs they hold, but what they choose to sell.

In Ocean City and other beach communities, it often comes down to T-shirts available on the Boardwalk or any of the other shops in the resort. This time the issue is the Confederate flag, as politicians and the public itself respond to the deadly shootings at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, S.C. on June. 17.

Nine members of the congregation were killed by Dylann Roof, an avowed racist, leading to a call for the removal of the Confederate flag at that state’s capital because of its offensive nature to African-Americans.

Enough already. We all know the details and all the stupid things with it. I'm glad to see OC still has balls and not fall to bogus PC.

Dylann Roof was wearing a "Gold's Gym" T-shirt during the crime. So far I've not seen anything about that 'offending' anyone.
The fact is, they've been wanting, for quite some time, a reason to attack the Confederate battle flag and this event has filled their agenda. It's just a damn shame that the American public is as dumbed-down and Kardasianized as it is allowing their latent lemming mentality to surface and act.

Come on really the only reason Ocean City t-shirt shops are selling the shirt is because they are
all owned by foreigners they don't give a damn

'America' has been dead and gone for over a hundred years, the same time the constitution was destroyed and replaced by this current one that is nothing more than a policy handbook for the corporation of the United States, Inc. D.C. is nothing more than a war machine that takes its orders from the Vatican and the banking 'Crown'.

We are all slaves in every sense of the word with no rights, indebted to our owners. We have been hoodwinked and lied to from the beginning.
