Clothes

I like the diversity and the Reagan one, the diversity one should piss some people off. You should try and find one that says "Silly liberal, paychecks are for workers!"
 
As funny as the child abuse shirt is, you might want to choose causes you actually believe in. Assuming you're not being ironic, natch.
 
By 'school' do you mean an institute of higher education? If so then you're just going to piss people there off. :E

High school, a lot of people won't care, (although I know personally quite a few who will) and I'll anger a lot of teachers.

edit: AHhhh I want my avatar on a shirt!
 
Kinda funny the shirts. Though, I dont really see how they are making a political statement. Seems more like crass humour to me. I dont think anyone will really take you seriously ... imo.

It's baiting equipment. Though I do wholeheartedly believe in disbanding the ATF, and it becoming a store would be one of the best stores ever.
 
This is stupid. If you are trying to make a political point, why use sex to sell it? It devalues the whole thing.

All I thought when I saw that was "woah.. tacky"
 
You need to get some club gitmo gear:

I really don't think your going to get a rise out of liberals by wearing tacky shirts. If I saw someone walking down the street in one of those I would think to myself, "Heh, another ignorant redneck with a cheesy sense of humor."

The only people who wear those are gangstas(and about 6 sizes too large), or incredibly depressed emos, but they usually wouldn't dress down that much.
 
You will certainly get someone's attention with those. Do you plan to get anything constructive done at school? If so, I'd recommend something a little less coarse.

It's a counter to the Che T-Shirt.

I was going to buy the one from AllahPundit's blog with Che on it with a huge crosshair over him, but it doesn't seem he's online anymore.

I also like the Che one (in the reagan category) where there's a big USD sign on the beret and it praises capitalism :]

Since we're on the subject, i always liked the tshirts,

Jesus loves dick

or

Jesus loves Bush


classic.



As far as designs go they seem pretty cheap. Like aesthetically ugly ...
 
People who wear 'controversial' t-shirts with the sole intent of offending someone are ****tards. Ooh look at me, I'm being all edgy and counter-culture, ooh! :rolleyes:

while I do like the original CHe lithograph I think it's been done to death as a t-shirt ...especially since the majority of people who wear dont understand the first thing about him ..same goes for the people that parody it


t-shirts for me are easy ...I only wear them to bum around the house so I dont care what's on them (although I dont like logos) ..currently I'm wearing a green army t-shirt that says in small letters US surplus ...how's that for irony :E

See, this is what I find fairly hilarious about stuff like this. I'm in the USAF, so I see another version of this around a lot... its b-52 with a circle around it made to look like a peace symbol, insinuating that by bombing the **** out of our enemies, we become safer.

The ironic thing about this is (from what I recall):

The B-52 (aka Buff) first started being used during the Cold War - but never dropped any bombs
The conflicts for which the buff is famous for, Korea and Vietnam, indeed involved dropping bombs on lots of baddies... but I think we all know how those ended up
The only SUCESSFUL conflicts in which the Buff has played a role in have only happened relatively recently (the Gulf Wars), and the buff didn't exactly get a whole lot of recognition for those

...does anyone else see what I'm getting at here?

....no
 
the image is designed to appeal to the layman. The b52 symbolizes power. it doesnt matter if they've never dropped bombs because only aficionados/usaf would know the difference. the image is the message
 
They are funny to me, although I would technically be a 'liberal' under US pigeonholing slang.

I wouldn't wear them myself, though. And the more you look at it, the more you get tired of the message...

Why? I can see how they'd get mad politically but to say it's anything like 'school shooting' is retarded, it's a picture of handguns.

And anyone who wears or touts the Che Guevara image (the real lithographs of him) needs to learn the murderous and horrible past of that man.

"Thirty-two of us were crammed into a cell," he recalls. "Sixteen of us would stand while the other sixteen tried to sleep on the cold filthy floor. We took shifts that way. Actually, we considered ourselves lucky. After all, we were alive. Dozens were led from the cells to the firing squad daily. The volleys kept us awake. We felt that any one of those minutes would be our last.

"One morning the horrible sound of that rusty steel door swinging open startled us awake and Che's guards shoved a new prisoner into our cell. His face was bruised and smeared with blood. We could only gape. He was a boy, couldn't have been much older than 12, maybe 14.

"'What did you do?' We asked horrified. 'I tried to defend my papa,' gasped the bloodied boy. 'I tried to keep these Communist sons of b**tches form murdering him! But they sent him to the firing squad.'"

Soon Che's goons came back, the rusty steel door opened and they yanked the valiant boy out of the cell. "We all rushed to the cell's window that faced the execution pit," recalls Mr. San Martin. "We simply couldn't believe they'd murder him! Then we spotted him, strutting around the blood-drenched execution yard with his hands on his waist and barking orders – the gallant Che Guevara."

Here Che was, finally in his element. In battle he was a sad joke, a bumbler of epic proportions (for details see "Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Tyrant"), but up against disarmed and bloodied boys he was a snarling tiger.

"Kneel Down!" Che barked at the boy.

"ASSASSINS!" We screamed from our window. "MURDERERS!! HOW CAN YOU MURDER A LITTLE BOY!"

"I said, KNEEL DOWN!" Che barked again.

The boy stared Che resolutely in the face. "If you're going to kill me," he yelled. "you'll have to do it while I'm standing! MEN die standing!"

"COWARDS! MURDERERS! Sons of B**TCHES!" The men yelled desperately from their cells. "LEAVE HIM ALONE!" HOW CAN ...?!"

"And then we saw Che unholstering his pistol. It didn't seem possible. But Che raised his pistol, put the barrel to the back of the boy's neck and blasted. The shot almost decapitated the young boy.

"We erupted. We were enraged, hysterical, banging on the bars.'MURDERERS! ASSASSINS!' His murder finished, Che finally looked up at us, pointed his pistol, and BLAM-BLAM-BLAM! emptied his clip in our direction. Several of us were wounded by his shots."

To a man (and boy) Che's murder victims went down in a blaze of defiance and glory. So let's recall Che's own plea when the wheels of justice finally turned and he was cornered in Bolivia. "Don't Shoot!" he whimpered. "I'm Che! I'm worth more to you alive than dead!"

funny that sounds like a completely different person:



Dr. Ernesto Rafael Guevara de la Serna (May 14, 1928¹ – October 9, 1967), commonly known as Che Guevara or el Che, was an Argentine-born Marxist revolutionary and Cuban guerrilla leader. Guevara was a member of Fidel Castro's "26th of July Movement", which seized power in Cuba in 1959. After serving various important posts in the new government, Guevara left Cuba in 1966 with the hope of fomenting revolutions in other countries, first in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and later in Bolivia, where he was captured in a CIA-organized military operation. It is believed by some that the C.I.A. wished to keep Guevara alive for interrogation, but he died at the hands of the Bolivian Army in early October, 1967. The details surrounding his death are cloudy, but many believe the Bolivian government purposefully executed him in order to avoid a public trial and potential martyrization of Che's image. After his death, Guevara became a hero of Third World socialist revolutionary movements, as a theorist and tactician of asymmetric warfare. He also became a popular icon for revolution and youthful political ideals in Western culture.

From your -exact- same link

In 1959, Guevara was appointed commander of the La Cabana Fortress prison. During his term as commander of the fortress from 1959–1963, he oversaw the hasty trials and executions of many former Batista regime officials, including members of the BRAC secret police (some sources say 156 people, others estimate as many as 500). Poet and human rights activist Armando Valladares, who was imprisoned at La Cabana, documented Guevara's particular and personal interest in the interrogation, torture, and execution of prisoners.
 
You don't have to have a degree in Political History to know that Che was an evil, evil man that murdered a lot of innocent people, wearing his shirt symbolises that you fully support his actions and genocide and murder.

I think its more of a fashion thing...

I mean, if I wear a belt, it doesn't mean I'm trying to keep my pants up.

Murder and Genocide are not fashionable, no one would wear Hitler, Stalin or Ho Chi Minh shirts, so where Che shirts? Because the Hippies wore them in the 60's and 70's, that's why, and because Hippies are considered "fashionable".

Pants as in underwear or trousers? I thought Australian's spoke a derived version of the Queen's English, not a derived version of American English which is a derived version of the Queen's English.

Contras and such had a good mission with some things being done wrong by bad people. Reagan trying to get them to resist communist takeover isn't quite anywhere the same as Che personally executing children.

<Sighs> I don't think it's quite fair to brand that on Guevara just 'cause some people are too retarded to know who he was or what he stood for, but - and it pains me to say this - the t-shirt has a point.

As for this thread, you're being inflammatory for the sheer sake of it, which is pretty childish. And you'd say the exact same thing if I posted links to anti-Bush poster sites or such-like, whilst saying: "omg! these r teh win!!!"

Bwehe, I'm wearing a sort of Che shirt right now. It's actually a gorilla, doing to the famous portrait look. It's more just a silly shirt than some sort of topsy turvy political message, though, unlike the hundreds of clone Che shirts out there.
 
Exactly, a lot of peple really know nothing about Che, but they wear it because it's a retarded trend.

But then again, we all dress to impress, and you'll probably only piss one or two off by wearing a Che shirt. All most people know about Che is that he was a rebel, and being a rebel is extreme.
