Walmart Apologizes for Making ISIS Cake for Man Denied Confederate Flag Design,A man in Louisiana is requesting a clarification from Walmart after his solicitation for a Confederate banner cake at one of its pastry shops was rejected, however an outline with the ISIS banner was acknowledged.
Hurl Netzhammer said he requested the picture of the Confederate banner on a cake with the words, "Legacy Not Hate," on Thursday at a Walmart in Slidell, Louisiana. In any case, the bread shop denied his solicitation, he said. Sooner or later, he requested the picture of the ISIS banner that speaks to the terrorist bunch.
"I retreated yesterday and figured out how to get an ISIS battleflag printed. ISIS happens to be someone who we're battling against at this time who are killing our men and young men abroad and are decapitation Christians," Netzhammer said.
A representative for Walmart told ABC News, "A partner in a nearby store did not recognize what the outline implied and committed an error. The cake ought not have been made and we apologize."
"That is an ISIS battleflag cake that anyone can go purchase at Walmart," Netzhammer clarifies in a feature posted on YouTube demonstrating the sheetcake. "However, you can't purchase a Confederate banner toy, with like, say, a 'Dukes of Hazzards' car."Last week, organizations like Walmart, Amazon, Etsy and eBay declared that they were banning offers of Confederate banner stock in the wake of the shooting passing of nine African Americans in Charleston, South Carolina, on June 17, purportedly by a bigot shooter who was found in photographs wearing the banner.
"We never need to outrage anybody with the items that we offer," Walmart said in an announcement a week ago as it reported the boycott. "We have made moves to uproot all things advancing the Confederate banner from our combination - whether in our stores or on our site."
The movement took after a call by South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley to expel the Confederate banner from the state legislative hall in Columbia after the slaughter.
Netzhammer shows what seems, by all accounts, to be a structure about the Confederate banner solicitation from the bread kitchen in his feature with the words "can't do cake."
