Americans laugh at themselves...

[CHIZZY]

yeah, that\'s in bad taste... but so is a lot of crap. I just hope that nobody has bad enough taste to buy one...

Speaking of bad taste, Howard Stern has this guy on every once in a while called "yucko the clown". His bit is that he\'s a drunk, homeless, anti-semitic, racist pedophile clown. Well, yucko was calling in to the show the other day from different DC suburb gas stations wearing his filthy clown siut with a huge bull\'s eye on it and a sign that said "shoot me, asshole".

I wish he would have been shot.

Chizzy, in tv? That clown/guy is really stupid.

I laughed my ass off.

It\'s tasteless yah, but it\'s just a joke.  If you can\'t find the humor in certain situations then why aren\'t you sad for every other dying person in the world?

^^^Word.

The whole websites gimmick is that they sell funny and "insensitive" t-shirts like that. I admit that I have bought a couple shirts from them.

Still saying that they should be shut down for making this shirt is ridiculous. This isn\'t communist china. I could make a shirt that says "2002 Sniper Tour: Coming to your chest next!" and list the people who got killed followed by the date and probably sell hundreds of em.

BTW, Didn\'t like that shirt? How about this one:
CLICK ME!! WOOOOO!!!

I didn\'t find the sniper shirt to be particularly funny, but the NYC one did get a chuckle outta me. There was one pic over at CJ\'s I remember from about a year ago that showed people jumping from the WTC towers and had "olympic like" score cards below from the Iranian, Kruatian, Iraqi, Saudi, ect.. judges. I thought that was pretty funny.

Does that mean I was any less shocked to hear about it happening? Does that make me any less angry at Al-Queda and terrorist run gov\'ts? Does that make me feel less sorry for the families who lost loved ones in the tragedy? I don\'t think so.

Simple.  We have virtually absolute freedom of speach.  I have seen plenty of shirts that are totally tasteless, relating to everything, from 9/11 to the sniper.  It\'s all legal though, and I think it should be.

By the way, I happen to think it is a good skill in life to be able to laugh at yourself

I actually like the shirts on that site.. I\'ve always wanted to order one. Only if I sent in that idea first, I could have gotten free stuff.

You find that suprising? I saw a video of people jumping out of WTC went it was on fire. They played the tunes "it\'s raining men" and "free falling"

Even for me thats pretty bad, it\'s in bad taste.

Now thats starting to cross the line.

Lol @ raining men, even though it\'s sick.

Nobody in the world has a better sense of humor than me.  But that shirt crosses the lines of good taste.  There\'s like a 5-10 year grieving period before you can start making fun of situations like that.

But that site is full of stuff like that.  Hell they\'re 10 times worse than somethingawful and the admins don\'t want that site linked to.

The line is far away, and when finally reached, it it VERY thin and hardly visable. This doesnt come close. As for something aweful, I really, REALLY doubt that.

I can\'t believe some guys did a movie based on WTC tragedy... incredible.
