Walmart to stop Mississippi flag display; reviews third party sales on Canada website by mrbhargav_ Kanishka183

) said it will not display in its stores the flag of the U.S. state of Mississippi, which includes a Confederate flag emblem, and is separately reviewing if items sold on its website in Canada breached its terms after online outrage over “All Lives Matter” products on the site.

The Mississippi Baptist Convention, with over 500,000 members at more than 2,100 churches, called on state leaders to adopt a new flag, saying lawmakers have a moral obligation to remove the emblem from the state flag as it “hurt and shamed” many people. The protests have spread since an unarmed Black man, George Floyd, died after a police officer knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes while detaining him in Minneapolis on May 25.

Isn’t there an issue with your home state flag as well walmart?

They sell out your heritage to distract low IQ classes from noticing that corporate greed is at the root of their misery! You lose your culture your kids lose their identity while parasitic corporations keep making profit. Makes perfect sense!

Boycott Walmart

Call Will Cain

Walmart should display this flag, it's the only Confederate flag that we remember. Get over it, they lost.

DarthGNZ I should hope so.

So who cares

Good

here come the white supremacists saying they finna boycott Walmart 👀🐸🍵☕😭🤣

Shame on you Mississippi. ✊🏿

Better yet, close all of the Walmart stores in Mississippi. Come on, commit to this fight

I don't think customers should boycott Walmart I think the entire state of Mississippi should boycott Walmart. Kick the franchise out of the state and let the free market refill the gap Teach the corps to know their place and stay out of politics

The people of Mississippi voted to keep their flag.

When Walmart and NASCAR become the beacons of our national conscience you know that we've reached critical mass in our ability to think compassionately and rationally.

' Reminds me of the Walmart on Tropicana in Las Vegas, NV USA. '

I’m sure there will be screams of boycott , for a day. Until they realize they have no where else to shop

Gonna be really nice to shop there now with all the Trump cultists boycotting it.

but will continue to sell 'White Lives Matter' t-shirts

Considering all the stuff they sell is from China, not a big surprise. Gotta please the CCP, cause maximum chaos.

🤗

wtf I love Walmart now and it's no longer disgusting.

Mississippi kicks Walmart out of the state.

Cowards

Damn rights they should.

Walmart removes Mississippi state flag from display in storesAnti-racist protests continue to spread, leading to calls to defund police departments and take down historic statues. Follow here for the latest updates. Mississippi can just remove the confederate part of the flag, Yugoslavia is not using the rest anymore 😎 Let me go on record laughing hysterically as I admire my beautiful state flag which shouldn’t even count as a flag because it’s a pennant. Statues are not history. Statues are a symbol. Statues are not history. Statues honor and glorify a historical figure. Statues are not history. When you take down a statue, you do not erase history. When you take down a statue, you reject what the statue represents in the present
