I've already asked mods to remove this 'offensive' print from the database.
1) This is art, you have the right to be offended but you don't have the right to censor it.
2) This is based on a period movie that is set during the Civil War in which this flag was actually flown. It's history. You don't censor history for the sake of your emotional frailty. That's what tyrannical regimes do with history.
3) If you're offended by this and want to take it down, you'd better submit everything with reference to anything that's offensive to anyone to be removed

Let's get this one banned because it depicts the Nazi flag.

Or this one :lol:

Ebay is a private company, they can do whatever the drymount they want, right?

eBay will not allow the use of Nazis! I bought one of the recent Wolfenstein games for ps4 and left the feedback, "Thanks for allowing me to slaughter Nazis!" and ebay said no
