T-shirts are Too Respectable for Me...

Let's talk about free speech in America.

I had an account with this T-Shirt company. I received an e-mail from them today declaring my blog "inappropriate and insensitive to Muslim culture, and racially agressive toward Hispanics"...

My Associate account has been cancelled, and my T-shirts will no longer be available for sale on their website. OK, we're talking about T-shirts here. The T-shirt has long been a forum for unpopular and inappropriate ideas and slogans. I used to own a T-shirt that delared "Assholes are People, Too". I was warned by my mother not to wear it or she would skin me, but I did anyway. Maybe I was expressing myself in an "inappropriate" manner. At least I wasn't strapping TNT to my torso and walking into a mini-mall.

This blog is all about my constitutional right to free speech. Nobody has to agree with me, and I even encourage those who don't agree with me to post comments. If you find me offensive, don't do business with me, that's OK. But I find it hard to believe that my blog is more offensive than anything available at an internet T-shirt site that allows people to design their own product lines.

Anyway, I'm still running for president. Somebody find me a T-shirt company willing to do business with me....

To those courteous, politically correct, easily offended, sensitive guys at the T-shirt shop: What the hell are you doing in the T-shirt business??? A T-shirt is a personal billboard for my shocking opinions and inappropriate humor. If you can't take it, get a job at Hallmark. Have a nice day!

What a bunch of shit. I hope that t-shirt company goes bust. They are probably produced in Mexico anyway.
