CAFEOPPRESSION

CafePress.com permits this T-shirt design (not work safe), but has withdrawn from display reader Matthew J.’s rather more thoughtful image:

Matt’s shirt is “generally offensive or in bad taste”, apparently.

1. Hicks praying. He’s a good boy.

2. Though the thong seems appropriate with the… erm, “I can smell your,” erm… I’m not going to say that in polite company...

3. I tend to agree with CafePress.  Obviously Mathew J should have been drowned at birth.  Given that oversight his shirt is a mere empty moral echo.

4. They missed the dog sweater.

5. Isn’t his name Mohamed Douad?

6. Cafepress showing it’s post-ethical bad taste.

   Posted by Wimpy Canadian on 2007 03 26 at 12:49 PM • permalink



7. Although it doesn’t absolve Cafe Press of their (typical) hypocrisy, the obscene phrase in the linked example is from The Silence of the Lambs. So it has “celebrity status”, I suppose.

8. Just an aesthetic point, but shouldn’t the “S” be highlighted in black along with the “B” and “D” rather than the “O” in “HOME” to make BDS the hidden message of the shirt?

9. “Bring David Hicks Home - and Hang Him”

   This message is just plain WRONG.

   We should hang him here.

10. We should hang him here.

    I disagree.  If the US intended to execute Mr Hicks we should have done so immediatly upon his capture, per the Geneva Convention.

    Since we did not, he should be returned to Australia, an allied power (would be different if he were from an enemy state), there to suffer whatever his home country’s penalty for treason is.

11. #7 Absolutely.

    One is a classic line from a classic film.

    The other… Well, it’s just commonsense.

12. Since CafePress won’t oblige, where can I get one?

    Posted by Nilknarf Arbed on 2007 03 26 at 05:52 PM • permalink



13. There’s always this alternative.

    Posted by Dan Lewis on 2007 03 26 at 05:53 PM • permalink



14. I am still volunteering for David Hicks’ firing squad.

    Posted by norian on 2007 03 26 at 06:13 PM • permalink



15. Maybe we can “encourage” India to request his extradition there.  After all, he has publicly admitted that he committed acts of terrorism against India shot at Indian soldiers from across the border.

16. re the link, I particularly liked the ‘I Can Smell Your C**t’ infant/toddler t-shirt ($13.99) and baby bib. The latest in casualwear for your very own little Hannibal.

17. And it’s available in a golf shirt for the country club set. Admirable market blanketing.

18. Yuh, right, Hicks huddled barefoot in a corner.  Instead of sitting quite comfortable and alert with his lefty lawyers.  Tell me another one.

    Posted by RebeccaH on 2007 03 26 at 09:03 PM • permalink



19. Yes.
    Bring him home to mother in a cardboard box.

    At least one of his supporters should get that reference.

20. Zazzle, for the moment, is tolerating the shirts.

21. Sod the t-shirt just get it done.

    Posted by Andrew Ian Dodge on 2007 03 27 at 05:51 AM • permalink



22. It wasn’t Hannibal’s line, IIRC. The guy in the next cell, who Hannibal later talked into hanging himself for his “impoliteness”.

    Not that it matters.

23. I prefer my idea

    Islamb is the dumb dumb religion!
