I saw *THE* most offensive t-shirt last night

[Coventina]

DH & I were leaving Home Despot, when I saw this old, disgusting guy with a huge pot-belly, scraggly beard with a t-shirt that said on the back (in huge letters)


SILLY FAGGOTS - DICKS ARE FOR CHICKS

:puke:

I just had to share.....

This is the environment I live in....

:mad:

1. I saw that T-shirt loooong ago!

Stupid idiots wear stuff like that!

[Coventina]

2. It just kills me that someone would wear something like that

It's obviously just out of pure homophobia.

I mean, it obviously is not flattering to women.

:eyes:

[Shell Beau]

4. It is just plain ingnorance!

And to think, people like that probably vote! :scared:

[chaska]

3. I actually think that's kind of funny....

:shrug: ...so sue me. But of course it's offensive.

[Shell Beau]

5. What is funny about it?

:shrug:

[Coventina]

8. Homophobia and sexism are funny to you?

Yikes.

[Misunderestimator]

9. Would it be funny if it used a racist slur instead of a homophobic one?

[ohiosmith]

10. All Righty!

:popcorn:

[sasquatch]

13. Extra salt please

Do you have Carnival style popcorn.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

15. so I guess the couter part "Silly Niggers, Rights are for Whites" is

just as funny :eyes:

[arwalden]

16. I Can't Begin To Tell You...

... how much it disappoints me to read such a thing.

edit: I think I should let you know that your "disclaimer" (afterthought?) doesn't really help.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

24. Yes, because homophobia and sexism are laughing matters.

:eyes:

[Mutley]

6. Classy.

:eyes:

[Beware the Beast Man]

7. I saw some drunk asshole wearing that at a concert once.

The pacifist in me wanted to plant my foot in his ass, and not in a sensual way either.

[Shell Beau]

12. "and not in a sensual way either"

:rofl:

Too bad there are stupids out there everywhere like that!!!

[sasquatch]

11. They used to sell those when I was in high school during the 90's

So it's nothing new and Gay people were free to be made fun of before the Matthew Shephard tragedy. It's too bad someone had to die before people started treating Gays and Lesbians with some amount of respect.

[Coventina]

14. Wow. I guess I've lived in a bubble or something.

I went to high school in the 80s, and I recall nothing like that at all.

[Shell Beau]

17. I remember seeing it when I was little (80's)!

I knew what it meant kind of, and I knew it was bad! But, yeah, they have been around a while. x(

[Roon]

18. I saw a bumpersticker once that said

I "playing card club" faggots.

[Coventina]

21. ?!?!?!?!

Um, isn't that admitting that they commit serious crimes?

GAH!!!

:argh:

[Midlodemocrat]

19. You know, I think I would have had to say something to him.

I don't want my children exposed to slurs like that and I think I would have ripped him a new one.

What a major asshole.

[Coventina]

20. DH was going to say something to him, but I stopped him.

I was afraid he might have a gun.

Seriously, it's that bad around here.

[Midlodemocrat]

22. Here, too. My brothers are always telling me to stop yelling

at strangers because it is a heavily armed state. Still, I don't think I could have stayed quiet. I have a really big mouth.

[Shell Beau]

23. As much as I would want to say something, some things

are better left ignored. I wouldn't want to give him the time of day. It may give him pleasure to know you got riled up!! What an ASS!!
