Quinn Flags Announced Full Ban on Confederate Flag Sales

In light of the recent tragedy in Charleston, South Carolina, Matthew Quinn, president of Quinn Flags in Hanover, Pennsylvania, has announced that a full ban on the sale of all Confederate Flags is effective immediately. These flags will be removed from websites, inventory, and stores promptly. Quinn stated, “As a leader in the flag industry, manufacturer of flags and banners, along with graduating from LaSalle Military Academy and having a bachelor of science in history degree from Towson University, I feel it’s morally and ethically appropriate to make this announcement showing that the historical symbolism of this flag needs to be just that — history. There is enough hatred and terrorism in the world and I have an opportunity to do my small part. With a manufacturing plant in Hanover, just 20 minutes outside of historical Gettysburg, this flag has been used by many historians, re-enactors, and museums. However, the time has come to make a stand and end the feelings of hate and racism that many feel when they see the Confederate Flag.”
