Take off the pedophillic books or pay the price for your morally depraved
business. "Understanding loved boys" goes, or I go. A free society allows
perverts to write books that endorse criminal behavior. That is their
freedom of speech. A corporation who trades on the NASDAQ and relies on
millions of morally upstanding americans who do business with them does NOT
have to sell it. Choosing NOT to sell a product is ALSO freedom of speech
and a fully legitimate expression of democracy. Bezos you are DEPLORABLE.
Whoever is reading this email, FORWARD THIS TO BEZOS. I AM GOING TO SPREAD
THE WORD TO EVERYONE I KNOW TO CANCEL THEIR ACCOUNTS WITH YOU.
You want to stand on principle?
FINE.
WELL GUESS WHAT?
I AM GOING TO STAND ON PRINCIPLE TOO!! AND I HOPE THOUSANDS OF YOUR
CUSTOMERS DO THE SAME. I WILL DO EVERYTHING I CAN TO SEE THAT IT HAPPENS.
I WILL NEVER BUY FROM YOU AGAIN UNTIL THAT BOOK IS REMOVED. CANCEL MY
ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY I WANT IT DELETED NOW. I WILL RECREATE THE ACCOUNT WHEN
THE BOOK IS GONE
Innocent children are suffering in this country and you enable it. How can
you even sleep at night? i hope your stock crashes. your company is morally
repugnant
Pass this on to Bezos. He needs to know the grave mistake he has done. That
man (or whoever it was who made this sick decision) is, as far as i'm
concerned, is as bad as the pedophiles that destroy children.
Goodbye, Amazon.
This is one capitalist excercising his freedom as well, and you're history.
