What happened to freedom of speech? Isn't that like pro-war T-shirts being illegal during a time of peace?

Do I really have to state that I'm not making a political statement? I'm simply asking a question.

And yes, I'll survive.

Er . . pro-war T-shirts are everywhere. Look in any high school. If you think a question is poor, your answer will be poor, so don't bother.

It's not a hate site, it's a peace site. Click on the link, scroll down, and look on the left side of your screen. Geesh!

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.

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.

What T-shirts? Some things are banned during a war, like a book by Dalton "Johnny got his gun"

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.

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!

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)

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.

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."

Which states are they illegal in?

Sounds like somebody told you a story because they suspect that you are gullible.
