The one who ordered this cake should be shot for treason.

Wal-Mart bakes ISIS flag cake but not Confederate flag cake..?
|
So, let me guess: Some asshole went out, ordered two offensive cakes and got upset because Walmart wouldn't make one of them; sound about right?
Deal with it. And stop going out of your way to find reasons to be pissed off. Most people don't pay all that much attention to the news and probably have no idea who Isis is or what their flag looks like. That goes double for the bakery staff at Walmart. Expecting them to know all about Isis would be like me going down to a monster truck rally and expecting everyone there to be able to give a detailed analysis about the symbolism in Shakespears' plays. I've always hated it when people are firmly convinced that the world hates them and they go out of their way to prove it; ever heard of confirmation bias? If you're already convinced something is true, you'll find evidence for it whether that evidence actually exists or not (*COUGH*creationism*COUGH*feminism*COUGH*).

Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but the confederates were at war with America, too. How is a Isis cake treason, but the confederate cake isn't? (Even though, technically, that wasn't the confederate flag)

Arguably the American Confederacy were Americans, as well as the fact they are not presently an active power nor a threat to national security. How would you feel if I ordered a cake saying God hates faggots? An ISIS cake is a big I hate America. |
