Gee, where's freedom of expression now?

Let me guess: It just goes away when the proletarians are the ones being "offended."

"This is saying that the country of Mexico is a dirty place," said Barry Morrison, regional director of the civil rights group. "Dirty can be interpreted figuratively and literally."

A place where it's common to be warned away from drinking the water seems to fit this title, moron.
If the shoe fits....

Um isn't that a try statement, I have never been to New Mexico, but I have been to Mexico and it really is not a clean place.

"New Mexico, Cleaner than Regular Mexico."

Er, as a West Texan who frequently goes to New Mexico, I'm here to tell you in their defense, the above is pretty much their only bragging point.

"This is saying that the country of Mexico is a dirty place," said Barry Morrison, regional director of the civil rights group. "Dirty can be interpreted figuratively and literally."

While I understand why this t-shirt may offend Mexicans, it's folly to suggest that Mexico is not "a dirty country."

Hook Mr. Morrison up to a polygraph and ask him if he would trade the air quality of Mexico City to that of any American metropolis. Ask him if he knows of any American city where entire families live and are raised in the city dump. And, finally, ask him how many people who cross over from New Mexico to Mexico vs. Mexico to New Mexico.

This year, first-quarter profits rose by 60 percent to $27.4 million, compared to the same period a year ago.

Free advertising is the best advertising.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Mexico IS dirty both physically and politically.

[proudofthesouth]

I bet if the shirt had an anti US statement on it it would be okay to sell.

"New Mexico, Cleaner than Regular Mexico."
HAHAHA, I briefly had a lapse and thought about our insurgency on the border when I read this. Instead of interpreting "New Mexico" as a state, I thought of it being a renaming of the USA. It seems funnier that way.

"Voting is for Old People"
Aww, cute. :D If only it read "Voting is for Informed People"

"Dirty can be interpreted figuratively and literally."

That someone can say something this stupid about a t-shirt and be taken seriously indicates that this country is rapidly approaching the end of the line.

This is even beyond "it depends on what the meaning of is is".

[Mamzelle]

Would appear to me that they are equal-opportunity offenders...

[Hexenhammer]

It IS dirty! Have they never actually been to Mexico?

[43north]

I'd like to see wide distribution of a T-shirt with the logo:

"Welcome to America. Now learn to speak English!"

[muir_redwoods]

Pretty inecpensive advertising strategy, come up with one new offensive T-shirt a year and make the news for a week or so.
