After pointedly banning Confederate flag memorabilia from sale on their website, Amazon decided to allow products which promote killing of police, well at least until fervent calls for a boycott of their overall services forced them to take the items down.  But the inconsistency of their response isn’t whats most frightening here; it’s the growing trend that the social conditioning is really beginning to sink in, as most American’s really don’t understand what their freedom of speech is.

The First Amendment to the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution states that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.  Nowhere in there does it mention that you are protected to directly promote the physical killing of another person.  It does however mention that you are absolutely free to express yourself,  and this happily translates to non-threatening items like the Confederate flag.
