I hope they remove all the Public Enemy shirts with the police officer in the cross hairs of a scope.

If someone had taken time to actually look at the item, would quickly notice it is a American flag, and a decal given to AMC Dealers & UAW workers back in early 1970s. The cheesy robo letter I got is below. Might have been a robo taking out the auction for a $2.50 decal. Ironically I bought a Confederate flag from ebay a few days after all the flap. I relisted the item but took out the name REBEL in the subject line. So am guessing Rebel Machines are illegal now too by thought police! This is relisted item: http://www.ebay.com/itm/381307624768 Eddie Stakes 713-464-8825 days www.planethoustonamx.com From: eBay Subject: eddiestakes: Effective immediately: Items depicting the Confederate battle flag are no longer allowed on eBay Dear eddiestakes: Effective immediately, eBay is updating its offensive materials and prohibited items policy to prohibit Confederate battle flags and many items containing this image from all eBay sites, worldwide. We believe this image has become a contemporary symbol of divisiveness and racism-and our decision is consistent with our long-standing policy that prohibits items that promote or glorify hatred, violence, and intolerance. Know that this action is not expected to impact the listing and sale of authentic historical items-or other items of historical significance-from the Civil War period. We have determined that you may be a seller with one or more items depicting the Confederate battle flag, including those listed below. Over the next few days, eBay will be removing listings that depict the Confederate battle flag and refund all insertion fees associated with those listings. Note that this initial removal of listings will not count as a policy violation against your account. 381304578925 In addition to removing current listings, we will also block new listings of items depicting the Confederate battle flag. Thank you for your understanding, and-as always-for selling on eBay. P.S. If you see a listing that violates one of our offensive materials and prohibited items policy, report it by clicking Report item in the listing. If we determine that a listing is in violation, we email the seller-and the bidders or the buyer-to let them know that we've removed the listing from eBay.
