A list of stores for these idiots (including one here in Atlanta) can be found at http://www.urbanoutfittersinc.com/ecom/store_locations.html

what an ATROCITY.

[dansangel]

An unbelievable amount of them throughout the country. Thanks for the link. .45MAN and I are *professional shoppers* (LOL) and I'm happy to say we've never stepped foot in one of their establishments and will continue to avoid them like the plague. Yeesh.

[dmz]

Honestly, I think I'll fax them and tell them to keep up the good work.

Now before you ban me, think about it. As Owl Eagle correctly stated, do that with Allah, and you've got a firebombing in your future.

Do it with Jesus, and the Christian free marketeers *choose* not to purchase, or to register their displeasure with faxes, not bombs.

Could anything underscore the differences between our worlds better than that?

I don't know any PR is good PR. By selling the items such as Ghettpoly, and dress up Jesus, Urban Outfitters is getting their name recognized.

[Hildy]

Jesus had blonde hair? Looks more like Greg Allman up on that Cross!

[hattend]

Nah, It's "Zonker" from "Doonesbury" (Yeah, I read Doonebury back in the 70's...when it was funny)

I want to see a dress-up Mohammad--complete with interchangable suicide bomber belt and green boxer shorts with arabic writing on the butt that says "kiss my @$$ or I'll blow you up."

We can all have a good laugh while the CAIR talking TV heads go ballistic and the Imams give out death fatwas to the makers...

[bonfire]

I shouldn't.....but I had to laugh...especially at "Hang in there Baby".

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

There's something just not quite right when you had to TELL people you're normal, isn't there?Good point. Maybe that's why he did it, in his twisted logic he's highlighting his perversion.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

I e-mailed them with your exact request (demnomo) using the links above. Let me know if they start carrying it, we don't have a store close by.

[horse_doc]

Maybe he can come out with a Martin Luther King magnet, that you can dress in gang clothes.

Or maybe a Bobby Kennedy shooting gallery.

Maybe he'll make an AIDS patient that you can put little sarcoma spots on.

After all, people have to learn to laugh at themselves.

[spatzie]

Stupid, stupid, stupid.
I guess they have the right to sell this crap if they want to, but what in the world were they thinking?
Who would want to let their kids play with something this offensive?

[montag813]

I'd love to see them do a "Dress-up Mohammed". We would see several Urban Outfitters burned to the ground, and "Normal" Bob Smith would become "Dead" Bob Smith.

There's something just not quite right when you had to TELL people you're normal, isn't there?

Just like I wouldn't buy a car from "Honest" Anybody.

[Old Professer]

Math is hard...

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

The dude even drew Jesus' underpants in an "adult" manner...

[weegee]

This is the only thing at Urban Outfitters that has even ticked off the libs (and many semi-famous libs have voiced their outrage at UO):

If voting is for old people, irony isn't

[cyborg]

They just opened up a new UO at the local mall... bronx cheer for them. I'm not writing them any letters though. When I wrote Abercrombie and Fitch about porn pop ups while trying to order something on their website, I got SPAM SPAM SPAM from AF.
