I wouldn't give a shit. Actually, I would. I would find it silly and would probably verbally shout down the T-Shirt wearing nasty. But I wouldn't try and push a law into government banning him from wearing certain T-Shirts.

Hitler found the Jews offensive. His idea was a little more radical and involved cold showers and a fuckload of gas.

No. Fuck that. You don't get to toy with freedom of expression and speech by saying 'well I find this offensive, so ban it!'.

I find religion in itself offensive. But I'm not knitting together a giant, Vatican sized veil.

Oh yeah. You have demonstrated the way your brain works with regards to that logic on many occasions.

'Don't lead by example. Just copy what the other guy does hahaha'.

Evidently, considering how I am not proposing that we simply go 'tit for tat' on oppresive, freedom restricting Sharia laws. Probably because I was blessed with a political conciousness above that of the level of a seven year old.

Nice arguments.
