It’s disgusting, and Amazon sure did hear about it:
If you support the police do not buy from Amazon.

The site is now not allowing that particular shirt to be sold:
Re:Amazon selling "F..The Police" Tshirts: Their reply: this is against our seller policy and violated the seller agreement. Removing soon!

Hats off to everyone that contacted Amazon tonight about them selling @$#% the Police t-shirts, the items been removed. Nicely done

Looks like Amazon's heard enough. It's removed this shirt by 3rd party seller after being 'overwhelmed' by complaints pic.twitter.com/XNIclZMWO8
