Liberal crybullies demand Amazon stop selling Trump gear

trump_amazonAh, the tolerant left has struck again.  This time, progressive crybullies are demanding that Amazon stop selling gear that promotes GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

According to the Washington Examiner:

A progressive women’s organization leading the charge against Donald Trump is demanding that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos remove the Republican presidential front-runner’s menswear line from his website.

The group UltraViolet Action recently launched a petition that has reportedly attracted more than 36,000 signatures and calls on Bezos to reject Trump’s “racism, sexism and xenophobia” by discontinuing the availability of his clothing line in Amazon’s marketplace.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

Trump’s name is currently attached to more than 30,000 products on Amazon, though not all of them are owned and manufactured by the Trump Organization. In addition to dress shirts and ties, “Trump 2016” bumper stickers and knockoff “Make America Great Again” hats are currently for sale.

“Amazon has a history of doing the right thing and removing sexist merchandise,” said UltraViolet co-founder Shaunna Thomas.

Translation: Free speech for me, but not for thee.  After all, it’s the liberal way.

“Donald Trump has promoted violence at campaign events, stoked the fires of sexism and racism in America and espouses a political philosophy that borders on fascism [and] these values have no place on the Amazon marketplace,” she added.  Apparently, left wing threats against Trump and his supporters are okay, however.

“Macy’s did the right thing — listening to its customers and concluding that Trump was bad for business,” she added.

But as Tiffany Gabbay said at Truth Revolt, Macy’s did not do the right thing.

“No one here seems to be doing the right thing. The right thing is to allow a free people in a free society to make their own choices concerning what to buy and what not to buy, and who to listen to and who not to listen to, and who to vote for and who not to vote for,” Gabbay said.

But that’s too much common sense for the left to grasp.  It’s far easier to silence anyone with whom they disagree.  Why not?  After all, it’s worked for communist dictators.  It’s also interesting to note that Thomas hasn’t called for Che Guevara gear to be pulled.

Scratch a liberal, find a communist hypocrite…
