Hello All...
This was posted on another website...Thought I would pass this along...
http://www.cafepress.com/ is advocating violence against bikers for allowing one of its sellers to peddle his violence advocating bumper stickers seen here:

Show CafePress what you think by letting them know here:

I protested both that one and the Rape one. What do you expect from some probably illegal Mexican anyway.
I got an email telling me it was removed.
It's still there. And to think I've bought a shirt from these bozo's in the past. I let 'em have it with both barrels.

I got the same messages. We should also write to gabrielangeldesign and express our displeasure about their tasteless shirts.
You'll get no help and just validate them. They know it's offensive and think it's cute. Hell, we've all done something politically incorrect at one time or another.
While I don't like it, I don't want to become one of those anal retentive politically correct morons fighting to stop people from saying things that offend me.
Now if someone hits a biker and says they did it because of the shirt, some smart attorney will have the last word I bet. ;)
I just did a search on cafe press for "Biker Bumper Stickers". I could not find the offending sticker, so it looks like they pulled it. The way I see it is at least they pulled it. During my search they did have some cool stickers for both motorcycle and Trike Riders. I do not know whether I would buy anything from them or not.

Cafe Press is just a clearing house for these things. It is the designer that should be boycotted.

Buf, actually that is what I told Cafe Press when I contacted them that I would not be buying anything from the seller.
