K-Mart's "Domestic Volence" T-shirts

What is up with the * Marts lately? First it was WalMart with the Nazi/SS shirt? Now Kmart has a kiddie domestic violence shirt. Oh, and if you didn't see the walmart shirt with the nazi/ss logo, you can read about it here... http://www.bentcorner.com/2006/11/09/wal-mart-is-selling-shirts-with-a-nazi-ss-skull-on-it/ While the kiddie violence shirt might be of bad taste, the walmart nazi shirt is worse. Not only is it a Nazi symbol, but it is poor copy of a german anti-nazi sentiment street artist who was having similar shirts sold (his had some other graphics blended in to it.

I think its just silly. People will find anything to complain about to get some attention. Its just a shirt, Its funny and no real harm is meant by the shirt. Thats just as stupid as peopl complaining about christams decorations on front lawns and being offended by a holiday. Who ever is complaining needs a life and this is a woman speaking...

I personally think any t-shirt promoting any sort of violence racism and the like should not be displayed in stores where families shop. It is in bad taste. If people want to buy them it is their own choice.

A lot of those shirts [the block type style that tells you how to break up with your girlfriend, etc] I find to be in bad taste. It makes me wonder what the people that it is their job to either accept or deny the merchandise going on the shelves are thinking? I mean, it does sell and maybe that is what matters until someone complains. Make the buck while you can

haha. it's funny that people were never offended at the 'anti male' shirts (girls rule, boys drool to name a mild one) yet a simple drawing of stick figures and a vague slogan draws up this much controversy? it's time to get real.

I am glad to see that i am not the only one that has a problem with these sarcastics t's with obscene messages on them.

WEll yes maybe for the teens or adults it may sound cool but you are right its totally offensive for the kids I mean parents avoid their kids from getting into bad stuff and look here these morons are promoting tshirts that will make the kids more vulnerable!

I think stores shouldn't even consider selling shirts like this. I have seen others ones with the same message, but different images but I cant think of where. We see stuff like this and people wonder why kids are getting more and more violent.

they should not be selling this kind of t-shirt to our children it is setting the wrong example to kids.their is enough of domestic violence out their kids need to realise how wrong it is.domestic violence is not a light isue and making a tee shirt like this should not be taken to be light hearted nature.it deffinatly does send the wrong message to kids.

lol that shirt is funny. I'm a female and can understand it as a joke. If my bf thought it was funny I'ld buy it for him for christmas. And NO he doesnt beat me.. we have an amazing relationship. I think alot of times people are too prone to jump up and down and accuse people of offending when it simply is a joke.

thats bad something should be done about it...

tht is soo sick and nobody concedering seriously very strange

I think those people need to grow a spine

I asked my 11 year old daughter to tell me what that shirt said to her. Her response was, 'It's a picture of a brother being annoyed by his sister, so he pushed her out of the box'. She laughed really hard. My 13 yr old son saw no domestic violence issues, either. He saw a brother putting a sister in her place- out of his face. He would never strike his sister in a hurtful way, only when they're wrestling. I think it's people like you, who make such a big deal out of things, who ruin it for the rest of us. You people make it difficult for us parents to do our jobs. On that note, it's also some of the parents who don't take the time to explain how it's not right to hit someone. My son won't hit his girlfriend, or he gets to deal with me. Treating violence with violence- I know it's not right, but my kids do understand why it's not ok to hit or be hit. People who make an outrageous deal out of little things spend so much time focusing on them, you miss the bigger picture. You jump right to domestic violence while my children jump to a more accurate depiction. Ease up a little.

Teehee. I thought it was cute. Gave me a chuckle. What brother doesn't want to shove his stick figure sister out of the box when she is being that annoying. But I have a sense of humor. It seems most of America has lost their humor somewhere (right around the time of political correctness). I have more of a problem with clothes for little girls that proudly state they are Brats or worse. Why have stuff on clothes anymore anyway? Lets just ban everything that upsets anyone and we can all wear the same color clothes and read and watch the same stuff and we can all be drones that don't have to think since the "righteous" people can judge for us what is appropriate and inappropriate for all.

where they are selling those tshirts

What a joke. Great idea KMart. Promote violence in relationships! I think it is a very disrespectful shirt. I don't shop at KMart anyways. They are very expensive compared to Walmart/Target. I'm sure they won't be in business much longer.

Wow, this just goes to show you that parents need to be very careful what their kids are purchasing to wear. People can say that this type of thing is all in good natured fun, but when someone gets hurt because of it, its not fun then. Domestic violence is a very serious issue and stuff like this that makes lite of it and in a way promotes this type of behavior should not be marketed, especially to kids who are more easily influenced and want to take on more adult like behaviors.

I think it's pretty tasteless but I also think it's up to the person buying it. What some find funny, others might find offensive. We live in America for the freedom of that choice.

its bad
