How can anti-war T-shirts be illegal in five states and could soon be illegal nationwide?
What happened to freedom of speech? Isn't that like pro-war T-shirts being illegal during a time of peace?
Answers:
Maybe I'm not finding what your talking about or you're only reading HALF the story.
If someone is making money off of someones NAME(S) then I think it should be illegal to print the names not the anti-war crap! Are the families being paid or did they even get permission?
On a side note, soldiers went to war because they believed in something, associating their names with anti-war is wrong on so many levels. Now if these guys were forced into the military, i.e. DRAFT, and they were known advocates against the military and war, then maybe. With permission from the families of course.
And your proof that any t-shirts are illegal anywhere is.?
sounds like the USA is turning into a police state
That's not possible, they might not be allowed in certain government buildings, but there's no way in hell that they're banned in 5 states! That's a blatant violation of the constitution!
Any links? News stories about this? I have not heard of anything like this in the DC metro area, and highly doubt that it is actually the case anywhere.
What T-shirts? Some things are banned during a war, like a book by Dalton "Johnny got his gun"
Which states are they illegal in?
Sounds like somebody told you a story because they suspect that you are gullible.
Print on a shirt is not speech so therefore it's not free speech especially sense you had to buy the shirt. As for it being illegal, I have to applaud their efforts. Be thankful they don't let the brave men and women tear into you. You wouldn't survive.
There are all sorts of unconstitutional laws on the books across this land, and more keep coming. They'll stay there until someone contests them.
That's the sort of thing Jefferson was referring to when he said "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."
Do you have proof to back up your statement? Or are you just trying to get people wound up? Besides, who the hell wears pro war t-shirts? That's a poor example and a poor comparison to a poor question.
Yea, it says they TRIED to get them banned. If it passed and if cops actually enforced it (yea right) they would all be slapped with lawsuits from the ACLU so fast their heads would spin.
Don't worry, this is still America. Bush and his cronies would love it if those of us who oppose the war had to keep our mouths shut, but they can't do it.
With that HATE site you put a link to. It does not say anything about a t-shirt.
But I would like to see if a Republican put up a site that said something to the effect that clinton (both of them) should be in hell (I would put worse but I know I will be reported)
Cynthia: I have a bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell, I'll give you a discount.
I agree with what was said earlier, putting a troop's name on a shirt with anti-war propoganda is just morally wrong. It's like putting the name of the pope on an anti-god anti-jesus t-shirt. it goes completely against what they stood for and a bad way to serve their memories. Just spit on our toops for their sacrifices, because that soldier died for your right to say whatever.
