Major U.S. flag makers to stop making Confederate flags

Prominent U.S. flag makers said on Tuesday they will stop manufacturing and selling Confederate battle flags in the wake of last week's attack on worshipers at a black church in Charleston, South Carolina.

Reggie VandenBosch, vice president of sales at the privately owned Valley Forge Flag, said the Pennsylvania-based company came to the decision as pressure grew on South Carolina to remove the banner from outside the State House in Columbia.

Annin Flagmakers, based in Roseland, New Jersey, announced later on Tuesday that it too would stop making the flag used by the pro-slavery Confederate states during the American Civil War of the 1860s.

Eder Flag Manufacturing, a flag maker based in Wisconsin, also said it would no longer sell or manufacture Confederate flags because of the Charleston shooting.

Hopefully they won't stop making the Confederate Flag toilet paper.

I don't make the news, Tiger, I just report it.

You got a complaint, call the companies.

Pussy.

With all respect to the people who make flags, how hard is it really?

 

[Katzndogz]

It doesn't matter. This is a global marketplace. If American flag makers don't want to make what people want, someone will and those flag makers will just lose those sales.

 

[Delta4Embassy]

Come to think of it, where are Confederate flags made? Better be in the south somewhere.

Ha, the inbred redneck morons will still line up at Walmart to buy their 'Made in China' Confederate Flags. You're not dealing with geniuses. They should take off the camo and join the human race. But don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

This whole thing is getting stupider and stupider by the hour.

Haven't been watching the news?

Walmart, among other large retailers, have stopped selling it.

"You're not dealing with geniuses"

Neither are we.

Funny how fast so-called "conservatives" run from the Free Market.


Libertarians should support this. Bet they won't.

Like you, I had no interest in owning that flag, haven't had in the 50+ years I've been on my own.

But now, I'm tempted.

She's spineless. He attacks people who have nothing to do with the companies making this decision instead of going after the companies.

Sales are up indeed...

Ha, Walmart's been selling 'Made in China' American Flags for years. And guess what? The dumb inbred rednecks and many other Americans, stand in line for an hour to buy them. So we'll see if Walmart stops selling the Confederate Flag. Walmart's all about that cash. I'm not sold just yet.

Yes, the tags are probably made in America.

I agree if hazelnut and his kind learned history they would realize that the confederate flag had nothing to do with racism. Hate groups somehow started that. They would also realize the American flag flew over all slaves from north to south. So the American flag is more racist than the confederate flag, but media matters won't tell him that.

You should put on a suit that resembles a nice human being at least. wow that was nasty

This isn't the free market, this is pressure from a small small group of vocal social justice ass hats. Has any of these companies suffered any loss of revenue yet? has an official boycott been called or implemented?

For once, I would love to see a company just tell the nattering nabobs of negativism to "f&^k off, and realize these idiots have bark, and no bite.

That sounds like a hate speech.
