you are feeling abused because you asked an opinion, but only wanted to hear praise

I did not ask to be accused of laughing at the victims and their families. I was merely pointing out the misunderstanding in thinking I believe the death of humans is a joke. If this is what you see, then you and him must be very good friends.


I chuckle at the idea... But there are a lot of ideas that are funny in the abstract, but are not funny anymore when you make them a real thing. Not funny at all.

The only thing that would make it real is to put a human face on it. What would be real, is our stance against Terrorism (whatever form of fear it comes in) Laughter is not the main goal of the shirt idea.

You asked for opinions on the tastefulness of a two word message with a picture... What you have gotten is a sample of opinion on that. You get one glance when you wear a shirt with a message. You don't get all this time to explain in paragraphs exactly what your whole meaning and philosophy behind it is. You are gonna get first impressions. Some say its good some say it is bad. Take that for what it is worth.

I feel no need to be "sold" on the t-shirt idea through extended debate on how people deal with stressful situations differently. If you wear the shirt... you are gonna tick some people off, offend some, and make others chuckle. Now you know that.
