I don’t see alot of opportunity being denied Japanese Americans because people think it’s funny that the L’s turn into R’s upon translation.

Well, I’m white, and I cant dance, and I have no rythm and I can’t jump and I like my lawn to look imaculate and spoil my children and…..I can handle a joke.

And so can my Black, White, Hispanic, and Asian friends.

Good day sir.

That’s your argument here? Really?

As if that makes it right. I told him I was using my freedom of speech to tell him he was an ignorant assclown.

The one thing I hate worse than ignorance is sanctamony. You can stop posturing with your self righteous indignation over the “horrible attrocity” that is a joke shirt, or you can do what people do when the tv, or a magazine offends them, you can turn it off, or don’t buy it.

Lighten the fuck up people, every one gets there turn to be the jackass. Some, just more frequently than others.

If I were Japanese and had to choose between the interment camps of the the 40′s, or stupid tasteless shirt that says more about it’s maker and wearer than it does about being Japanese, I would probably just stomache the stupid shirt.

I’m sure many of the people who bought the shirt have been lectured and when it happens, I’ll bet many of them will never were it.

I believe it was created affectionately with the idea of being a subversive attempt for the wearer to show that he’s hip to the way things were and now that we are over it can wear a t shirt that mocks such ideas. I know thats a little essoteriic and potentially appoligist sounding but I just wouldn’t give a fuck if I was japanese. I am of mostly french descent and I didn’t pitch a fit about our presidents comments about the “cut and run french” or “freedom fries” I just laughed at him and kept on living my life.
