How can the government allow this? They\'re laughing at those who died...

Now that is just plain wrong. If the police or government found out about this they would probably shut down that site.

It might be in bad taste, but it\'s a free country (and thank god for that). I don\'t particularly like the concept but I\'m not condemning it. If the police or government would close the site down, I\'d say socety has failed. Bigtime.

PS. I\'ll let this thread stay open because there\'s already more talk about it here than in the other thread.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

Thanx Sam. I think there\'s a big difference between a free country (yes, thanx GOD) and a do-what-you-wanna-do country. That must be banned in a free and non-free country, at least till the guy is captured and the families forget the pain.

Do you imagine you\'re an affected by the sniper and one day walking by the street, you see one of that t-shirts? Come on...

Adan, I don\'t think you\'re seeing the whole picture here. How about the twin towers shown in movies? Shouldn\'t we erase them from the movies too, so the families of 9/11 victims won\'t be hurt watching them? Please... and who should be the judge of what should be \'banned\'? I do not like censorship in any shape or form. If you don\'t like what you see, you should close your eyes. Otherwise things could potentially end up like Orwell\'s 1984...*

I think there\'s a big difference between a WTC frame in a film and a t-shirt in the street laughing at the victims... but it\'s only my opinion.

And yes, I don\'t have a whole picture of the facts over there.

There is no such thing as utopianism in my opinion.

This t-shirt is blatantly taking the piss out of a very bad situation.

Twin towers in movies don\'t try to make a joke out of it. Totally different situation.

IMO it\'s not so different. If we were to shut down a site selling t-shirts with a message some people don\'t like, it would be a sad, sad world. Even sadder than someone making rude t-shirts.

Almost as bad as manditory seatbelt laws. The only reason they "care" is so ppl are alive to continue paying taxes.

The only bad thing about the shirt is someone is making money off of it. It\'s done in bad taste sure, but it\'s not like it\'s listing the names of people and puting a big ol clown pointing and laughing.

I own a t-shirt. A HARDROCK Cafe T-shirt. It is from 92 or something. It\'s a Baghdad HARDROCK Cafe T-SHIRT. It has a small sign hanging of the logo that says "closed down". Now some people might now like this shirt. I do.

T-Shirts are just another way to use your freedom of speech. If they were to do anything about that SNIPER shirt, they would have a lawsuit on their hands.

The shirt may be done in bad taste, but there is really nothing anyone can do about it.

If anyone wheres that T-shirt around the Washington DC area, they will express their freedom to beat the hell out of the person wearing the shirt. Call it...freedom of expression.

With freedom, comes responsibility.
