If you dont want your teens to wear them, dont buy them... or exert some control over your teens. Boycott Target? I don't think so.

If you don't want your family to drink polluted water, don't drink out of the polluted faucet...exert control over your household by buying bottled water. (The h*ll w/the rest of the neighborhood...pollutants--moral or otherwise--who cares? No need to get perturbed...just leave our neighbors/young folks to fend for themselves)

Dan Ackroyd would do these S.N.L. skits as a toy manufacturer defending the worst possible products that could bring harm to minors. I think we need Dan to do some similar skits of products that bring moral harm to minors...some FREEPERS are too dull to otherwise comprehend.

Your polluted water analogy is flawed. You have no choice of what comes out of your faucet. And that is a health issue you can address with your local city council.

And I am not defending these T-Shirts, I am defending Target's right to sell them. You don't have to boycott the whole store because it sells one product you don't like. People from all walks of life can find SOMETHING to which they object.

If you don't want your child wearing these shirts, don't buy them. If your teen buys one, throw it out and inform him/her that you will not tolerate such trash.

Be a parent.

Imagine a society that warns consumers if a product might endanger their children or for that matter adults but that same society sits on their hands when scum bag corporations like Target push FCUK EWE products on their teen agers. Of course we can also talk about Abercrombie and Sex and all the degenerate designers like Versace and Calvin Klein.
