Well you really can have your cake and eat it too.

They make a cake with an ISIS flag on it, but refuse one with a confederate flag.

The article clearly says it was a "mistake" meaning they were not aware that the flag in question was an ISIS flag and they apologized for it. ie that racist man duped them.

Hahaha, right...

Q99
Raise your hand if you could recognize the Isis flag, or even knew Isis *had* a flag before this.

If your hand is raised, lower it if you think a random walmart employee is likely to have the same knowledge.

Now also raise your hand if you though a cake made for some Americans with an Isis flag would be used for anything but mocking Isis.

They're both hateful flags, to be sure, but only one of them is one that most people even know *exists*, and Isis' is not used by hate-groups inside the US, for that matter, and is thus not nearly as well known inside the US.


Also, by comparing the Isis flag to the Confederate flag, is this supposed to be an argument that the Isis flag is just as acceptable as the Confederate flag, or an admission that both flags are hateful?


My view is not making cakes of either would be the proper response, but the employee didn't know.

As pointed out, do you think everyone reads Arabic and is actively aware what the ISIS flag looks like?

This reminds me of the time people were around asking people what July 4th was for and they didn't know.

That's a trick question, nothing special happens on that day.

Nothing special happens on your day but I get you get a present. Or is that offensive?

I'm not sure. I don't think I understand what it means.

This disgusts me. People who made that cake should be ashamed of themselves.

I don't see a connection really. I would assume that most Americans would know the basics of why July 4th is a holiday, I wouldn't assume most Americans being literate in Arabic and knowing what the ISIS flag looks like.

Are Americans really that dumb/ignorant to not know what the ISIS flag looks like?
It's been like a year since ISIS was established. You see the flag in FOX News/CNN/any news channel/website, all the time.

Time-Immemorial
Yea, no one cares..

Apparently, some are. Probably the same ones who believe what the government claims Jade Helm is about.

Oh you would say that. Funny enough, you posted here, I didn't know I invented a device to force you to post in threads you thought were stupid.

Maybe he meant that we shouldn't call groups like Isis names. They do have feelings after all.
