August 17, 201610 yr It doesn't bother me at all but then again nothing bothers me really. I have bigger things to worry about than a shirt about a black olive. Says the white guy.
August 17, 201610 yr There is absolutely a problem with the shirt. It's mocking an attempt (regardless of how terrible the attempt is) at equality. It's funny, but I can definitely understand why it would/will upset people. Sorry, I just don't get it. It's not mocking. It's a play on the phrase in a cute why. It's not disrespectful and not mocking.
August 17, 201610 yr The reason 99% of comedy is funny is because it's offensive. So I can't say white lives matter with a picture of a fish? The BLM is only getting upset not cops or white folks. I'm glad he owner stepped up his game and started selling merchandise.
August 17, 201610 yr Sorry, I just don't get it. It's not mocking. It's a play on the phrase in a cute why. It's not disrespectful and not mocking. It's not mocking in your opinion because it doesn't affect your life.
August 17, 201610 yr Says the white guy. There's nothing disrespectful about the shirt. I would feel the same way if I'm black. But then again, I don't get my panties in a wad over things. I can name a hundred shirts, slogans or catchy phrases that come from something controversial. Guess what? Not a one of them offends me in any way.

There's no possible way you could possibly know if that's true or not. You've never lived one hour as a black man.
August 17, 201610 yr I think the shirt is mildly funny and I don't consider it really mocking the movement. However I can certainly see where people would think it does not take into account the seriousness of the movement.
August 17, 201610 yr There's no possible way you could possibly know if that's true or not. You've never lived one hour as a black man. I have lived my whole life as a "dumb redneck hillbilly hick from Eastern Kentucky" though. And that gets laughed at all the time, often on national television, and I'm not offended at all.

August 17, 201610 yr My all-time favorite t-shirt: [ATTACH]57379[/ATTACH] :lol2: This is my favorite....
August 17, 201610 yr And how often have you been discriminated against because you're a redneck? 7 times but I still don't think this shirt has anything to do with discrimination or hate. They were just trying to be funny.
