The government isn't banning it from being sold. Private companies can choose whatever item they want to exclude from their inventory.

A big part of being a free country is letting the private sector make those calls.

I know and I agree. I'm just pointing out the straw man argument of a company banning one thing because it's racist while you're still selling items arguably just as racist (black panther) and things that are much more racist and evil (nazi).

Go on eBay right now and search the word "racist" or any other term you can think of. There is sill plenty of things that are very hateful towards black people on there. So why just ban the stars and bars and nothing else?
